Today we headed to Nana and Papi's house to hang out, play and most importantly, make cookies! But first me, Finn and Stephen played with our orby guns outside!

                                           

Then it was time to start the baking party! I got to help the little ones with the harder stuff!

                                  

Lucas just acted as our taste tester...

                                      

Then we did some basketball playing while the others kept up the baking!

                                      

It was all hands on deck and Stephen and I were experts at the peanut butter cookie rolling!

                                     

Jax and I perfected the snickerdoodle baking! They smelled so good!

                           

                                          

Then it was on to the sugar cookies! Everyone got to help with that and it was so much fun!

                                       

Then it was back outside for some more running around and playing!

Then we cut the sugar cookie shapes out of the dough so we could bake them and then decorate them!

And boy did we decorate...you've never seen so many sprinkles on a cookie!

We had tons of yummy fun!

We even got to watch the Comanders game and have some dinner. Who knew you could tie a professional football game. I felt like we were watching soccer.

                                         

Then it was time to head to our neighborhood's 75th Christmas tree lighting! It was so nice

We met up with friends and then it was time to join the festivities. 

We ran around a bit then it was time to head home and warm up. It was a great end to our weekend!

                                     

                                        

                                        

                                        

                                        

Last night I got to have a sleep over with all my buddies at our friend Albert's house. We had so much fun and his mom even made us burgers for dinner...

                                       

                                         

Today we all went up to St. B's after the rain finally stopped so we could hang at the HSA Advent market/festival. 

                                         

Lots of our friends were up there running around like maniacs in and out of the school and in and out of the tree lot! It was so fun.

                                            

Money Muscle BBQ was there and we got to get some yummy food!

                                             

                                             

We even got to make s'mores later in the afternoon!

                                          

                                          

After that we went to MeMa and PopPop's house to decorate their Christmas tree. That was super fun too!

                                            

And the best part is that MeMa made her famous tomato soup and we got to dip our grilled cheeses into them! It was a great night!

                                            

                                               

                                             

Last night Mama went to the beach. She tried to take lots of pictures of all the buildings that were lit up for the holidays but we'll see them all when we go down after Christmas!! 

                                         

Mama also caught a really cool sky right outside our house on the way to book club!

                                      

                                         

And while Mama was away we all got to help Daddy make our favorite pesto meatballs for dinner. They were so good, as usual!!

                                        

When Mama got home she went to the St. B's annual wreath making event with all her friends!

                                           

                                          

Looks like they had a great time. And Mama made a beautiful wreath for our front door!

                                           

 Last night we all went up to the tree lot to run around and help out a bit...

                                  

                                  

We had a bunch of friends up there and we all ran around and hid in the trees! Oh, and helped customers!

                                     

                                          

                                           

                                             

Then Daddy took Kai And Finn home and Mama and I stayed to help. I helped Micheal and his brother sell hot cider and I even got a tip!

                                          

Then today Mama let us leave school early to catch the USA soccer match at the Pub! It was so much fun!

We got to meet up with Papi and Uncle Shaun! And have wings and coke!

And hang with some friends from school and the neighborhood!

                                          

Later we went to help Mama at the tree lot some more. It's fun working up there!

                                    

Then it was time for basketball practice. Basketball season is here again already!!

And saw this crazy house on the way home. You can't even see the house behind all those blow ups!

 Today the Christmas trees arrived on the big truck from Canada and all the dads and bigger dudes showed up to help get them off the truck and onto the lot! Daddy did a lot of the heavy work!

People were ready to buy trees before we barely got them off the truck!

                                       

We had fun running around and playing in the tree lot, and helping a bit. Then Daddy and Mama got us some hot chocolate. It was chilly out there~

                                    

Then we left Mama there to do the selling. They were SO busy at one point that they had to call in reinforcements!

And then just like that it was quiet! It was a great first night on the lot. These trees are going to go fast again this year!
