Party, Party, and more Parties

Tuesday we had our 2nd annual Christmas party with my mom's family. We had a great dinner and then a few of the grandchildren and all of the great grandchildren put on a nativity. They were really cute! The shepherds all just wanted their moms and were not happy about the costumes. My cousin's son in the middle of it got his hulk gloves on and came out to show his powers, it was really funny.

Then we played some really fun games and Santa Claus came to see the kids and brought them all a bag of goodies.

Zack with Santa- he was obviously not at all happy about sitting on Santa's lap
The boys highlight of the night was playing basketball. Zack even learned how to dribble.

We were going to have a birthday party for Austin and Zack on Sunday with my family, but they woke up from their naps with croup so we decided to combine our Christmas Eve party with their birthday party. We had one of their favorite dinners of chicken roll-ups with mashed potatoes and beans and then had fun playing games after they opened up their birthday presents. They were very spoiled!
I make them baseball cupcakes for their birthday this year since they LOVE balls. Like last year Zack wouldn't eat any of his cupcake, maybe he's like his dad and doesn't really like cake.
Austin apparently thought us singing to him was like praying. What can we say, we have reverent children. :)
Thank you to my family for loving our boys and letting us share the Christmas Eve party!
