Dear Santa,

Wednesday night we took Ben to Bass Pro to write his letter to Santa. He doesn't like to sit on Santa's lap :)

Definitely on the NICE LIST!

Poor Santa :( The line was so long!

Shooting guns!

Getting started...

Thinking... Ben took the letter home to work on haha!


THE LIST!

I took him back up to Bass Pro to mail the letter after school the next day :)
On it's way to the North Pole!

FA-LA-LA-LA-LA

Tuesday Ben's school had their Christmas Concert. It was grades K4-12 and they sang, and 6th grade did a play. They all did so great!

The K4 class (Ben's class) and the K5 class sang together and it was ADORABLE!

I LOVE MOPS!

I love MOPS! It's a great orginization for moms to meet with other moms :) We all get together talk, laugh, eat, and craft. Today we had our Christmas MOPS Meeting and it was so much fun! Our activity was painting/decorating onesies. All of the onesies are being donated to the mothers at Hope Pregnancy Center in Tulsa. I took some pictures (there was a lot so I couldn't take pictures of them all). They turned out so GOOD!!!

Every year we do a Gingerbread House. We love to do it and Ben of course loves to do the candy! I bought a HUGE kit... what was I thinking?!?!

Here is what it's supposed to look like...

O' Christmas Tree

Today we headed to the Owasso Tree Farm to get our Christmas Tree! We love their tree farm. Everyone is so nice and the prices are reasonable. We got a beautiful tree and a really cute candy cane wreath.

The one Ben & I wanted ;-)



Matt had to pay Ben a $1 to take this picture :) haha!

The boys bringing in the tree.

This is how Ben decorates the tree... And I left them that way!

Putting on the candy canes.

And here it is. I'm not very happy with my tree this year. We bought LED lights this year and I'm not really feelin' them. But Ben likes it and thats all that matters :)

My Sweet Boy!

I found these cool little Christmas picks at Walmart that I wanted for a wreath I'm making. We got some green ones but I wanted some red ones for our tree. Of course they were all gone (apparently you have to shop for Christmas decorations in October). We left Walmart and came home and I was doing laundry when Ben brought something to me. He said "Mommy I made this for you. I know you wanted those thingys for the tree in red so here you go!". OH MY WORD! I melted!

Here's what I bought at Walmart.

Here is the one Ben made me in red :)
You can bet I'll be putting it on the tree!

GOBBLE GOBBLE

Still smiling after cooking for 2 days!
