They came in Fri evening and we headed out for pizza. Then Sat morning, after pancakes, we opened gifts to and from them. The boys were excited to open a few because I've been wrapping things up to send to Boise and they almost couldn't handle the packages just sitting!
"Mom, quit taking pictures so we can open the presents!"
Wrapping paper starts to fly!
Helping Danna...
Playing with the new K'Nex, the favorite right now.
Saturday afternoon we headed down to Old Fair Oaks for the Christmas celebration, bmx show, parade, and tree lighting. We arrived just in time to catch Santa before he headed off for the parade, he was a creepy Santa, but the boys have been asking to go to the mall, so now we might not have to. Tyler's, not so sure about this, kinda smile. (But no tears, YAY!) He walked right up to him as well, Cody said he had to go first.
Cody sitting with Santa, he even talked to him, said he wants a puppy.
He's getting one, just not a real one.
After seeing Santa it was time to go get our spot for the parade. It started out with the firetrucks, police and motorcycles.
The boys watching the parade.
Parade was complete with all the honorary people and pageant queens.
The BV high school band.
More pageant queens on a really old fire truck. He saw the boys with their ears covered and turned of the siren, awesome!
Then came the boys scouts, 4-H and the girl scouts.
After all the dancing girls, cars, weird clubs (Tall people and Sci-fi bunch), Santa finished the parade in his golf cart.
We didn't stay for the tree lighting because it was too cold and the boys were getting grumpy. After getting home and having dinner, we headed back out to go walk through Dovewood Ct. It's a crazy cul-de-sac with every house having a different theme, decked out like you wouldn't believe. Way cool and always a lot of fun.

Looks like you were right across the street from us! Mikey loves seeing pictures of Cody online. He thinks he and Cody are movie stars.
