Cousin Sleepover!
We were so excited to have all the Gaines' cousins in
town for a few days. Aaron and Avery love to have
M & M come to spend the night when they are visiting.
All of them camped out in Aaron's room! Avery though
unfortunately got sick the following morning (she had strep)
and missed out on 2 days worth of cousin fun activities.
Both of us (momma and Avery) were so upset that we
did not get to spend more time with everyone.

Bass Pro Outing/ Meeting Santa
This is another pre Christmas/out of order
post. We invited our good friends to go
to Bass Pro with us to see Santa. Little
did we know that once we got there it was
a 2 hour wait to actually see Santa... luckily
they had many activities to keep the kids busy
and just walking around the store takes some
time! The kids seemed to have a great time
and the mommies didn't lose their minds with the
wait lol!

Christmas Morning at our house
I am not sure who was more excited about Christmas
morning... the kids or momma! Both kids received a new
bike and they both have been enjoying them ever since.
Gram and Paw Paw also joined us for Christmas morning
breakfast which included blueberry muffins and egg nog
french toast...both made by daddy.
There was no Disney trip surprise this year... to momma's
dismay but hey there is always next Christmas :)

Preschool Christmas Play
These posts are a little out of order since my pictures are scattered
on my phone and camera but here are Avery and Brooklyn singing
cheek to cheek during the preschool Christmas play. We are so
proud of both of them!

Christmas Eve Service
We recently (after attending for 3 years) joined and
became members (pending Andrew's baptism) at First
Baptist Church. We are excited to officially be a part
of this wonderful Church home. It has only taken us
10 years to find somewhere we love going! We had our
wonderful friends Traci and Brandon over for Christmas
Eve dinner then all of us went to church for Christmas Eve
service.

Christmas Celebrations in Lafayette
We celebrated Christmas in Lafayette on Dec. 23rd with
Pop Pop and JuJu. The kids had a great time helping
prepare dinner and opening all their gifts. We were so
happy that our Jackson was able to celebrate with us as
well.

Boy Scout Christmas Dinner
We have been partying it up this Christmas
holiday... this week we attended the Boy
Scout Christmas dinner. Aaron was selected
to carry the flag that evening and he did a
great job and took it very seriously. There
was also a surprise visit from Santa who
delivered derby cars to all the boys to be
used at the derby car race next year.
Aaron also received 2 awards this night too.

and each child opened a gift. We were
so happy that Gram was able to join us

Time for a trim
Avery recently had a small haircut... this is
the before picture as I forgot to take a picture
after her haircut. I cut about 4 to 5 inches off...
much to daddy's arguing... but I am sure it will
not take long for it to grow this long again!

PJ Sunday at church
We LOVE our church! The children's minister
is always thinking of new ways to make things fun
so last Sunday was PJ day for the kids... and the
nursery and sunday school workers wore PJs as
well. The kids were so excited to wear our matching
snowman jammies!

Christmas Parade 2014
It was a beautiful December morning to watch the
Christmas parade. We were able to spend time with
family and friends while catching a ton of candy and
of course our favorite... paper towels from the GP float!
We love free paper towels!
