Holiday pictures

Although it is now after Christmas, I forgot to share our Santa pictures....

As expected, Izzy was not overjoyed to see Santa, but took it in stride.


Serious but okay with hanging out with Santa


When Wes realized that we were next in line, he started gripping me like it was life or death. I know that experts say that if your kid is crying, you shouldn't force them to take a Santa picture, but I really do think that these are the funniest and if this is the only stressful thing about his life, then I think that he will be just fine. We tried to take the kids together, but Wes wasn't having it so we took separate pictures. I'm gonna be honest that I can't wait to show this picture to Wes in a few years because it is hilarious. 



Santa is thinking, "I don't get paid enough for this"


Izzy wrote a letter to Santa that contained just one thing (she also told him what she wanted)- a princess dress. We hadn't planned on getting Izzy one but it truly was the only thing that she asked for from Santa.

I'm so proud of her handwriting!

 Then on Thursday the kids had pajama day at school. My sister got everyone in the family PJs so I put the kids into them and thought I could take a nice picture. Turns out Wes does NOT like taking Christmas photos. LOL.

Izzy has a nice smile on....Wes not so much....

And then Wes bumped Izzy's head so both were crying. Maybe next year.

Oh my gosh that last picture! These are seriously great. Hope you all had an amazing Christmas!

I second Risa...that last picture is priceless.

Also, I swear, Izzy doesn’t look 4 at all, especially with her hair pulled up, she looks so much older!

I can't believe how far behind I am in my blog reading! Oh well, better late than never! This post cracks me up, lol. Rylee asked Santa for a unicorn pillow. Like with Izzy, we had no plans of getting her a unicorn pillow, but it was the only things she asked for, so we had to get it. Or I mean, Santa had to get it! And can I just say how impressed I am that Izzy wrote her note to Santa by herself!??! So impressive! That last picture is a classic. Hahahaha!
