Winter Fun Weekend

Friday night my sister Kimberly dropped of our nephews Logan and Carter for a two night kid vacation...and we had a great time!
Friday night it was pretty much bedtime when the boys got to our house after they had a pizza dinner with Santa. So once we got on jammies it was off to bed....Then it all started at 6:30 am Saturday morning...well, really, it started at 1:30 with Carter screaming "Kelly" but that was just a quick trip to the bathroom and back to bed! HA! HA! Once Logan woke up - he and I headed downstairs to play some Wii monopoly...Matt joined us pretty quickly after - actually really quickly since I couldn't get the Wii to work! And we started a game of monopoly...shortly after Carter followed....and the day began!!! Cinnamon rolls followed Wii monopoly, then outside we all went for picking up leaves and playing football, then it was Christmas craft time, then baking Christmas cookies, then showers (covered in flour - see pictures), then Petsmart with Molly to get her picture with Santa (it was HORRIBLE and quite a crappy picture - but it went to a good cause), then back home to decorate the Christmas cookies (which really turned out phenomenal - well, that's a personal opinion), then a Christmas movie with Uncle Matt while Aunt Kelly made lunch (mac 'n cheese and hotdogs - classic), then naptime (well only one of them really naps anymore, but it is a secret from the other one...truth be told though, I think it was Aunt Kelly who really wanted a nap! Ha! Ha!), then time to get in toasty warm clothes for the Santa walk as Suson Park, then popcorn snack in the van, and pretty soon we were at Suson park...well it was FREEZING - I mean literally freezing, Carter was screaming - "I'm so cold"....the winds were quite possibly the most horrible cold things I've ever felt! So off we went to The Bread Co...for some hot soup for the adults and blueberry bagels for the kiddos...then home for a cookie and reading Spud's letter...then a game of Sorry (Kelly and Logan kicked Matt and Carter's butt), then pj's and everyone got cozy in Logan's bed for a Billy Boy story from Papa Doc (via skype), and then it was bedtime!!!! Wowzers, this has really been only 24 hours...CRAZY, but fun! Definitely a fun winter weekend!
