Every year the retirement home that Tyler’s granny lives in (which his family has named “The Big House”) has a santa that comes in and you can get pictures with him. Here is this year’s shot of Finley, Declan and my nephew Elijah. Doesn’t it look like they are having a great time?

We did a candy cane hunt with friends right before Christmas. It was so much fun. Think Easter Egg Hunt, but just tossing candy canes out into the grass and the kids go hunting.
We love to decorate cookies at Christmas time. This year we waited until the last minute, but still had fun with our friends that came over. Declan loved dumping out the sprinkles. About 3 dozen cookies were decorated and 3 or 4 full bottles of sprinkles were emptied.

We went on a field trip with Finley’s preschool class downtown Seattle to look at the Teddy Bear Suite, the Gingerbread Houses and to ride the Westlake Carousel. It was a fun adventure.

A few pictures from our trip to the Burien Winterfest. It was super cold, but we had a fun hayride through downtown Burien, then a trip to the toy store.

Trying to get the boys to take a picture with the reindeer. Finley was not that interested….
