Christmas

Treats for Santa and his Reindeer
Annie with her new baby doll set. Once she saw this she was not that crazy about opening anything else. She thinks she is extra cheesy if she closes her eyes, she kept closing them for the pictures.
Hailey finally got her orange nano.
Kiley is with her LPS. She is so cute.
Maicy got a hat and scarf knitting loom, she has made many things with them. For some crazy reason I do not have picture of her with them. Here she is with her American Doll book set.
Rollerblades from Mema and Papa which they love so much.
Awhile back Jack had told the girls he wanted some Heely's you better believe they bought him some for Christmas. They could not wait for him to open them. He is dang good on them I would kill myself. They love when he wears them to the park with them.

Christmas Eve Breakfast

On the morning of Christmas Eve we had breakfast with the Skousen side and exchanged gifts. Here are the girls with the blanket they gave Nanny. She has a Mickey and Minnie room so they love to find her fun things for the room.
Nanny made all the kids a scarf and hat, they loved them.
Carter gave Annie her first dress-up dress,crown and shoes, as you can see she loved them. She wore this thing all day and even slept in it for her nap. I love how her crown in always upside down. Thank you Carter!!

Ruby's on the Newport Pier

One night while we were in CA we went to eat at Ruby's on the Pier and went to Balboa Island to look at all the cute houses decorated for Christmas. It was pretty cold the whole time we were in California but it was especially cold on the pier because of the wind. Annie sitting so nicely at dinner like she always does.

The kid table.

All of us freezing cold. Ashly is missing because she is taking the picture.

Gingerbread Houses

This year we did our gingerbread house at the Flakes. We are cheaters and use graham crackers and hot glue guns. The girls love to get creative and create fun houses. You can more with hot glue than you can with frosting. Creating their master pieces.

Annie ate frosting and candy the whole time. As you can see there is not much candy on her house.

Kiley and Porter getting started.

More creations.

Ice Skating

The week before Christmas we went to CA to look for a house and have some fun with all of our family there. We started out the fun with Ice Skating at the Spectrum. The girls and Jack loved it. I think Jack liked it the best he was flying around. Lacing up. Brooke, Porter and Lily also went.
