Tis the Season

I love this time of year. Everyone is happy and we get to celebrate Jesus' birthday! Here are some pics from the last few weeks.

We decorated our tree in our new house.

This was Max's first year to help hang ornaments so I showed him how.

When we were done, our tree looked beautiful!

Then Mommy hung ornaments in the places we couldn't reach!

Look at all of our stockings! We sure are a growing family.

We even got a few early presents! Thanks Aunt Kim and Uncle AJ.


Maxer was in his first Christmas program.


I know he looks like a cone head, but he was a candle. :)

I starred (I mean performed) in my Christmas program too! And I got to stand right next to my cousin, Gaven.


Don't we look like we're up to something?


Mason has to wear this little helmet for a couple of months. He got it wrapped to look like the Dallas Cowboys' stuff. Isn't he cute?

Mason and the Van Vandal.

Here we are at Friday family movie night. We've been watching some great ones lately. Last night we watched Frosty. It was good (and the popcorn was even better!)

Merry Christmas!

Ho Ho Ho


We went to see Santa the other day! Mommy said we all did a good job smiling for the picture. Then I told Santa that I wanted: A Heroes of the Imanginex Space ship and Batman and Joker castles! Max said he wanted "balls" Mason just smiled, but I think Santa knows what to get babies since they can't talk. :)

Merry Christmas! ~Miles

Orange You Glad We Went To Granny and Pop's?

Granny and Pop have an orange tree at their house. And it had LOTS of oranges on it. So we got to pick them!



Picking picking...


I'm a pro!


Max helped too

Working hard


We took a break to cook lunch for Aunt Monica in the play house.
We got to take a boat load of oranges home and we have been eating them everyday!

Deer Lease

When we were at Granny and Pop's house, we got to go to one of our favorite places: the deer lease!


Family pic

Riding on the mule with Granny and Pop. This is our favorite part!


Mommy's favorite picture

Daddy and Mason

Don't tell Maxer that it's a fake deer. He really liked it!

I helped Max find all of the cool stuff at the deer lease.
Pop and Mason. Doesn't Mason look like Pop?

Exploring with Pop.

Check out my mad balancing skills.


Maxer

It was so fun!

Dirt and cammo, it doesn't much better than that!

Exploring with Granny

We even got to see this BIG aligator!
Great trip to the deer lease. I hope we get to go back at Christmas!

Turkey Day

Sorry I'm a bit behind on my posting. The holidays are such a fun and busy time! Here are pictures from our trip to Victoria to see Granny and Pop for Thanksgiving.

We all piled on Pop's lap. :)

Gig 'em Aggies!


We had one more party for Max. He really likes Yo Gabba Gabba right now.

Aunt Emily and Mason



Pop telling jokes to Mason.


Having some quality Mammaw time!

Celebrating Max.



Max is a fan of birthday cake.



Playing with new toys.


Cheese!
It was a great Turkey day and birthday celebration.

Craft time

Mommy caught us doing one of our favorite things the other day- crafts! I am really in to water colors right now. Max is just figuring out regular colors, so he really likes those too!



PJ craft mornings are the best!

Nutty boys


We have lots of pecans in our yard right now (or "acans" as Max calls them). Look at our loot! We even gathered up one cute baby brother. :)
