So this year our Christmas is going to be a bit smaller than usual. For those of you who know how much we love decorating for Christmas will understand our heart ache that this picture is the TOTAL extent of our Christmas Decor. We didn't have enough room on the moving truck for the rest of the decor. But with all the lights off and some Bing Crosby in the background the Christmas Spirit is as strong as ever.
My good friend Jen and I took our troops to see Santa. Outdoor World had a "Santa's Workshop" inside and boy did we have fun...















Maddie spent nearly all her time writing a letter to Santa. The letter said.... Dear Santa, I have ben prettie good this yeer. I would rilly like a Disney MP3 player and some close. Hope you have fun. I love you, Madison Nicole Summers














Gage found some dart guns and practiced shooting targets. This was actually soooo... cute!








Of course Lizzy could not be shown up by her little brother. She looks a little to natural behind that gun :o

Lizzy showing our little Cali Cakes the proper way to shoot the gun. Cali is Jens youngest. We ADORE her!!

Gage mailing his Santa Letter. The kids should be recieving an email from Santa "confirming" what they would like for Christmas. Parents had to sign it in order to recieve the confirmation.



Gage was so cute, he told Santa he wanted a toy orange motorcycle and a toy blue car....This was news to me :0



Maddie of course asked for a Disney Mix Stick...I'm so glad the girls are sticking with the ONE item :)

Lizzy too asked for a Disney Mix Stick, she had also suggested a pogo stick. Ya, not to sure about a pogo stick :0

















This sweet family has quickly become the dearest friends. Andy was at work so he wasn't able to come with us, but the rest of the crew is Jen, Rian 8yrs, Trace 6yrs, Sam 3yrs, Cali 2yrs and a little girl on the way.
