*** Santa 2011 *** :]

We went and saw Santa this weekend at our subdivision clubhouse party :] The boys did so so soooo good!!! They are both a tad scared of him.. Eli is more than Zacary though aww! I did this portable Santa thing for them on the computer as I posted before and since then Eli has been more calm and everything about Santa and I am so proud! Zacary will go up to him and like him but doesn't like to be held by him awww -- my babies are so precious!! But I did get a 2011 Christmas pic with Santa eeeek! Daddy got the shot while I got my babies over by Santa!! Eli did not want me on his lap at all awwww so we sat beside Santa and Zacary had his lil body tight around me and Eli wanted to stand on the far side of Santa but we got a cute cute pic and I love it!!! :]:]

After Santa we got some cookies and juice and then we stood around lookin at the pretty water outside and then Santa came over and asked if the boys wanted to see the geese flying outside with him out the window! He picked Eli up while asking and Eli did soooo great -- I'm so so proud!!! I was in such shock that I said "hurry Noah grab the camera hurry hurry hurry" hahahahaha :] We got pics of Santa with both boys lookin at the geese and Mommy stepped in with them once too :] I am so stinkin proud :]:] Afterwards Eli kept sayin "Eli and Zacary did soooo good seeing Santa -- I like him!" awwww soooo stinkin sweet! Zacary tries to say Santa too :] It's rather precious :]:]



We all went home and had a very successfull trip as you see :] We spent sometime outside -- the boys rode their jeep and they love it and it is so so cute to see them on it together having so much fun!! They are such great lil boys and I just love them to pieces :] They were chasing Mommy on the jeep and laughing and laughing haha soooo cute!! I got some great shots :]





We also went to hear Santa tell all the kids a story at Barnes and Noble the other day and the boys did great and loved it!!! Santa read 3 stories and they listened so so good!!! Then afterwards we played with train tables too :] They loooove their train tables they can play with there and at the library too!!! Zacary got up on the platform by Santa but then came back to us! Eli wanted to stay by me awww!! What great lil boys I have :] I had pics to put up of that too but of course the photo thing won't let me -- how annoying! They are on my FB under the December 2011 album tho if you want to take a gander ever hahaha!!!

I also went and got the boys pics taken by me myself and I on Friday after we also took a freeee carriage ride around our mall and it was so so so much fun!!! I got great pics that are also under my December 2011 album of the boys in their cute lil outfits that were soooo darn handsome and then some pics of the carriage ride too!! The boys LOVED the carriage ride!!!! Eli was sayin "Mommy look at this and Mommy look at that -- oh my gossssh a horsie is taking us on a ride" awww and Zacary was so excited and loved looking at the horsie :]:] LOVE my precious baby boys so so so much -- we have so much fun together :] I will try again to post my pics later and see if it lets me then!!!!

Santa comes to our house this weekend and I am very excited :]:] We did this last year too with Santa coming a week early before going to IL on actual Christmas day and it was so fun and we loved having the time to ourselves the 4 of us still and never wunna take that away! The boys also will have all week to play with their toys before we road trip to IL for a few days -- we get there late the 23rd and leave the evening of the 27th! Noah has off the rest of the week and wants to be home to do nothing and I can't say I blame him but it will also be so good to be back in IL for Christmas with our families and friends!!! I am soooo stinkin excited for our Christmas the 4 of us this weekend too eeeeeek :]:]
