December has been SO busy but we've managed to have some fun too!
"Hey mom, look at me...I'm Elfie's twin! I even smile like him"
Brayden and I "tried" to make a gingerbread house one Sunday after church. We were too impatient to wait for the frosting on the house to dry completely so naturally our house totally collapsed once we put all the candy on it. But thankfully we have a high tech construction management professional in the house who put it back together for us with a glue gun! Thanks dad! Seriously next year I think I am just going to glue gun it together in the first place...its not like we ever eat the thing anyways. Actually, I think next year I'll sit back and relax and let Guy make it with the kids. That sounds like a better idea! :)
We had our best tree ever this year! It was so pretty and BB took decorating it very seriously!
And Tyler surprisingly never knocked it down. A true miracle!
Brayden pretty much rearranged our tree daily. All ornaments got their turn at being in the front
I found Tyler in this basket one day. He emptied it and crawled in with his favorite toy. Its this super annoying singing/dancing hamster that wiggles its arms and legs and sings "We Wish you a Merry Christmas" in the most obnoxious way. It pretty much drives me crazy, but for the boys, it never gets old...which is why it drives me crazy! :)
Brayden with his 2009 ornament...Lightning McQueen of course! He is obsessed! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Hill for the pj's you got him for Christmas. They have been a hit!
We loved driving around and looking at Christmas lights. There are a few neighborhoods here that go all out so we let Brayden stick his head out the sun roof for the best view...we were only going like 2 mph :)
We took the boys to the Polar Express Train ride again this year and had so much fun. Here's Brayden with the tallest Santa ever!
Pretending to be a penguin on the spray painted snow...best we can do here in Texas!
He loves Charlie Brown and was very excited to see this!
It's frosty and a reindeer
Before the train ride they had this little program concert thing and they had all the kids come up and yell...I mean sing, a song together! Brayden pretty much loved it. It was a nice glimpse at what our future will be like at a million school programs! Oh, I just can't wait... 
He was beyond excited to finally get on the train
All Aboard
Look who's coming...
It's SANTA
Santa tried to hold Ty's finger and say hello
and Tyler pretty much FREAKED out!

That is so fun! Why don't they have that here?!
Heber Creeper is NOT the same
Also we need to have Melissa make a blog now that she has NO SCHOOL
That is so cute! Texans have the most fun Christmas ideas ever. Maybe I just need to do a little more research...
That looks so fun! Your boys have gotten so cute! We need a polar express around here. We miss you guys and hope you have an awesome Christmas and New Years...oh and go DUCKS :) lol
Oh my gosh we went on that same train when we visited our family in San Antonio. That's real neat that Santa was able to come on the train! Hope you had a good Christmas
Very fun! How many ornaments broke this year? Please don't tell me none because I'm pretty sure my kids broke at least 10 "redecorating" the tree daily.
Luke got the same jammies from Grandma and Grandpa. They've been a hit with him too!
WE were planning on doing polar express this year too, but didn't get around to buying tickets until it was too late. (Amanda, the Heber Valley railroad does it.) Maybe we'll get our act together next year. Looks like they had fun! Except for Tyler with Santa. What baby does like Santa? They should know not to approach babies at that age!
