Friday Faves

Happy Friday!  It was another busy week at our house.  We're all ready to be done with school for a bit.  It's almost Christmas Break!  Just 4 class parties and a day full of school and we'll be ready to enjoy a nice, long Christmas Break.

The best parts of our week were:

1. We saw Santa!  Kevin schedule a visit to see the mall Santa and it was so sweet.  Leo was SO excited, but got nervous once we got close to Santa.  Fletcher volunteered to go with him and they both got to talk to Santa.  Santa pictures are my favorite.  Then we grabbed dinner at the mall afterwards.


2. Date night!  We went out to dinner and did some shopping.  We headed to our favorite - Longhorn - and finished up some Christmas shopping.


We found ourselves at the mall once again to pick up Olive from a birthday party.  We eached grabbed our favorite desserts - coffee for him and cookies for me.

Cookie perfection.

3. Reminder to use up your free scoopie tickets from Culvers to grab a free dessert for your family.  I keep the coupons in my wallet and head through the drive thru when I know I'm going straight hom.  You can pop them in the freezer and then enjoy them for dessert.

4. The oldest cousin of our cousin crew - Addison turned 18 this week!  Her Little Debbie themed party was so sweet!  She's the best oldest cousin and always so sweet to Leo.  



5. Mr. Mittens in his favorite napping spot.

6. Leo has discovered Santa mugs and insists on drinking out of them when we are at home.  He looks like a little old man sipping coffee out of his mugs.

7. Christmas chapel.  We had our Christmas chapel service and I was surprised to find out that Leo was chosen as a worship leader!  He sings all his school songs at home so it was really fun to see him perform them on stage.  He walked up there like it was no big deal even though it was a pretty full sanctuary.  I was so proud of him!


8. Cozy Crawl with the K team!  We had a cozy crawl at school where each grade level picked a theme and then put together a food table for everyone to enjoy.  We picked Crockin around the Christmas tree and came up with several crock pot foods for our friends to enjoy.

Every station was SO CUTE and SO delicious.

9. Mr. Mittens.  We all still fight over him.

10. Christmas pj day at school was really fun!

11. Olive was chosen by her peers for student of the month this month!  Yay for Olive!

Happy weekend!  I hope you have a great one.  We're hosting a couple things this weekend and it should be tons of fun.  See you back here next week :)

Linking up with Momfessionals

  1. That is a shifty looking Santa, kids and animals have a good intuition about shady types and won't approach them. I read some of the prisons are letting guys out on work release to work as Santas to make a little money for the commissary. Can't be too careful these days.
