Colorado Randoms

These are just a few random ones I just found from our trip!

Silas got Toy Story Yahtzee! for Christmas and they loved playing it!

I think Silas liked the dice in the cup.

I tried to get a picture of Silas cuddling with Papaw on the morning we left and this is what I got. This is proof of how much they resemble each other...crazy! (Keep reading...2 more posts below!)

Build-A-Bear

My Aunt Karen took the kids to Build-A-Bear while we were in Colorado. This was their first experience doing this and they had so much fun! They each got to pick out just what they wanted with clothes and everything!

Silas chose a monkey and named him George, of course!

Camdyn picked a pink (weird) puppy and named her Perdy.

Silas' finished product...a Colorado Rockies' monkey.

Camdyn's finished product...a Tangled (Rapunzel) puppy. Thanks Aunt Karen! This was a such a fun thing to do!

Christmas in Colorado

This year we were able to go to Colorado for Christmas for the first time in 4 years! We had so much fun while we were there with so many family and friends! Here are some pictures from our adventures!

The first day we got there we had a cookie decorating party with the Oakes. The kids had so much fun and decorated/ate lots and lots of cookies!

Christmas Eve we always open one present (pj's). The kids were so excited to be able to open one thing, but not so excited it was clothes!

Silas got a train table from Santa (Nana and Papaw) and Matt had some fun setting it up on Christmas Eve.

Silas was super excited about his train table and I think this picture shows it perfectly! All week if he'd be playing with something else and he walked into the living room he would say, "Oh, my train table! I have a train table!"

Camdyn had asked for Bitty Baby from American Girl and she was so excited when she got it! She has not put that baby down since Christmas morning!

When Silas pulled back the wrapping paper enough on his toolbox he said, "Oh. My. Gosh." It was hilarious! :)

Camdyn was so happy all day on Christmas. She warmed up to all of the family and friends that came over so quickly (which is so different than in the past).

Craziness

Things around here have been super busy and I haven't been very good about taking pictures! Here are a few pics of our random happenings:

Playing nicely together! This actually happens quite often, but it's still fun every time!

Thursday night we took the kids to see Tangled and had SO much fun! Both kids sat through the entire movie and loved it!

You can't tell Silas liked it from this picture, but I think he was mad that we were making him stop eating his popcorn to take a pic!

We watched some of our friends kids the other night and everyone had so much fun! My kids were stinkin' excited for them to come over, so we did fun things like eat pizza while watching a cartoon!

Camdyn and I got our hair cut this weekend and she thought we looked like twins, so we needed our picture taken together!

Silas wanted his picture taken with me too...looks like such a cheeseball!

Silas got his haircut today and he thought he needed his picture taken to show it off. You can't really tell what the haircut looks like in this picture, but it is different! We are headed to Colorado on Wednesday, so I'm sure we'll have lot of pictures to share from there!

Decorating Cookies

Yesterday the kids and I decorated Christmas cookies to take to small group. They had so much fun doing it!

Here they are getting started.

Sticking your tongue out helps with concentration...

...must have some truth to it b/c they both do it (just like their Papaw)!

My cute kids! Love them!
