Cookies for Santa :)

One of my favorite things to do, is make things with my kids. Whether its crafts, cookies or just memories. At the end of my life, I know my kids will have memories and traditions to pass on to their children. I know my grandchildren will remember that they had the coolest mamaw out there. In the end, it doesnt matter how much money you make, the house you live in, the car you drive. Its the stories that get passed down from one generation to the next, its the memories that they keep next to their hearts. Its the love that no one can take away, no matter how hard they try.

For Santa

Christmas, my favorite time of year

We went to Bass Pro Shop in Nashville to see Santa, everyone knows that is where the real Santa goes to see everyone before Christmas :) We wrote letters to Santa, and dropped them in his mail box, we made cookies for Santa while waiting too.

Of course my oldest went out of love for his momma. Why else would a 16 yr old go get his picture taken with Santa? 

 Lil dude loves the nutcracker. 

 Freddy is getting so big :( Where has time gone. 8 months old I LOVE that she didnt bat an eye when I sat her on Santa's lap :) LOVE IT!

 The crew :) Baby J took to Santa this year too, which was a vast improvement over last year's photo!

Take note... Freddy is chewing on Santa's beard O_o
