ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS........

........IS MY TWO FRONT TEETH!

I know, I know.  I am a mean Mommy.  But,  I just couldn't resist!  How many years will we be able to pull this one off?  One.  Right.  So, I managed to get him on board for a few quick photos, showing off his gappy grin.

This kids are both off of school now.  We are gearing up *BIG TIME* for the big day.

The boys have had parties and play groups and celebrated with just about everyone that they could celebrate with.

And me, well, I  am getting "into" it much more than they other day when I posted.   A few Mommy's nights out have helped..... you can't go wrong with wine and lots of laughing and giggling!

Oh, and I have been wearing my Santa Hat.  And the Egg Nog is chilling in the fridge. 



We even donated lots of presents to the Toys for Tots.  We had the boys pick them out and then fork them over.  A tough exercise for 4 and 6 year olds (only a few tears were shed), but I think that they did understand the whole idea of helping out those that are less fortunate!

So, back to my title up there, I haven't really put much thought into this, as I have been so consumed with making sure that everyone else gets what they want for Christmas.   What do *I* want for Christmas??    Hmmm.....
-A day with no fighting/bickering/whining
-Grateful Children
-Happy faces and lots of laughs
-Cuddles and Love from my Honey
-Health
-Good Food and Spirits
-Snow!

So, that should be pretty easy.  Well, except for that first one... and the last one. 
Oh well.  I still consider myself one pretty LUCKY Lady!

I hope you all have a FANTASTIC Christmas. 
HUGS all around!!!!

Very cute! I love the chalkboard photo! Although I must admit getting tired of hearing adults asking me about wanting my two front teeth for christmas. I knocked one out in a tricycle accident when I was 3 so there were quite a few christmases without a front tooth!! Merry Christmas!

I am sure he will look back on that picture and laugh years down the road! I remember as a child going shopping for other kids was hard, but today, I still do it so it made an impact!

Your kids are just so darn adorable! Looks like they are feeling the brotherly love (at least in a couple pictures). Hope all your wishes come true - except for that snow one - not looking good.
Did they really do the arrows too?
