The boys went to a party with...

Santa

and cookies

Elf on the Shelf

His name is Elf-is (Blue.Blue.Blue Christmas)

He moves around every night to keep an eye on the boys,,,,that is, every night Mom keeps and eye on Dad to remind him Elf-is moves every night.

Billy the Exterminator

is Evan's favorite show on TV.

When Dad asked Evan if he wanted to cut the fingers out of his batman gloves,,he said "YEAH,,,,,,,but I want to take my hands out first!".
He even got an animal trap as an early Christmas present.

But Woody is all we have caught so far.

Evan was excited....

about going to the Christmas parade.

Making Christmas Cookies

Watching "Home Alone"

And sharing some popcorn with one of the cats.

# 2 is two !!!!

Mom made him a cake

All his cousins met him at Chuck-E-Cheese
They played some games
Chuck-E wouldn't turn on the "Ticket-Blaster" because Henry said he would look silly in the safety goggles.

So, Evan got in for him and a good time was had by all.

It just warms a parent's heart

to see their children sharing and playing together around the Christmas tree.

We went to see the

the lights in the park the other night.

It really put Mom in the Christmas mood, so we came home, put on our Christmas PJ's, and got the tree out of the attic.
Henry was not a fan of the PJ's.

So we made a deal.

Elf Yourself 2010

When we play

Lincoln Logs in the shop...

Dad has to keep the boys separated....

because this is how Henry plays.

Just pics

Henry REALLY loves the cats

They hide from him most of the time,,,,

but they are running out of hiding places. They may go through those 18 lives pretty quick, if he doesn't start loving them a little less.
So when he came in the room looking like this, Dad got really nervous.

But, he had only been helping Evan decorate his birthday cake.

(I promise Dad takes him fishing and stuff)

Mom making cakes

has been very exciting for Evan.

Henry was very embarrassed

when he found out I posted that video of him dancing.

Evan got a Leapster

game for his birthday.

And he is very good about letting Henry play(most of the time)

Trick or Treat

Love this picture.

dancing boys

Jill gave us

A new pillow and the kittens love it!
