Finishing Out December

No Christmas season is complete until you've been to the mall to see Santa.  


"Yardwork" at the neighbors house. 


"Mama, best friends have sleepovers with each other." 


Our Classical Conversations group had a family Christmas party at the skating rink.  This was the kids' first experience on roller skates.  Despite the countless falls - they both got up and stayed up.  We had a blast. 



Looking wobbly but her determination proved successful. 


Our local zoo is amazing and they even offer a homeschooling class that is very hands-on and engaging. Lucy Mills loves going. 


My Christmas season shopping helper.  "Mama, I think we need him." 


The holidays will flat wear you out. 


Princess playdates over Christmas break with school friends. 


One of my favorite students I counseled when I worked at Columbia College got married in Charleston a few days before Christmas.  


Loved getting a sister visit in while in Charleston. 


Christmas morning finally arrived! 


The children have been begging for two years to go to Disney World.  Most of their friends have been so they have heard how amazing seeing the Mouse and Princesses can be.  Lucy Mills has been praying that God would provide for our family to go.  While I couldn't quite talk Travis into doing Disney World (yet) he was persuaded into a Disney cruise.  


Christmas Eve Santa wrapped up a big box full with Mickey and Minnie, cruise pictures, and personalized pajamas to break the exciting news to the unsuspecting kiddos.  


Lucy Mills and McClain were over the moon excited.  Cruise pictures coming up next! 

Our family at Pop Pop's house on Christmas Day. 


Relaxing with Aunt Tutu. 


We were blessed with a great Christmas!
