Well, Christmas has come and gone and I have not updated in while. We loved Christmas break. It was filled with staying up late, watching movies, going to Bradley games, playing Settler's and Ticket to Ride, Spending time with family, and having pink-eye/ ear infection. Yes, me, not the kids, had an ear infection and pink-eye the first week of break. The kids were so excited Christmas day with their presents. After they opened up some small presents, they thought Christmas was over, but Matt hid a note on the tree from "Santa" that told them to go to the playroom to find two more gifts. Britt got a "two wheel" bike and Courtney's "big" gift was a doll stroller. They were so excited. All of Christmas break, Courtney would play with a new toy or put on a new outfit and ask who gave her the present, then she would say "I love it" or she would thank me for it again. It was precious! Here are some photos from Christmas. Courtney was not too sure of Santa- she asked him for mickey mouse (She had a Mickey Mouse birthday party). Britt has never sat on Santa's lap, so she decided to whisper into Santa's ear that she wanted a "two wheel" bike. The other picture is the annual Dean/Chatwell/Gardner Christmas picture of all the kids. We had a blast playing games literally all day long.
