Mom and Dad flew in last Saturday from Phoenix. They were able to see Drew and Kayley's basketball game Saturday afternoon. Mom saw one of Drew's games last year, but this was the first time seeing Kayley play. The kids had fun and both are improving with each practice and game. Kayley is not quite strong enough to get the ball to the hoop yet, but by the end of the season, I think she'll be able to do it!
Matt arrived on Christmas Eve day. The kids were excited as always to see their uncle. The kids were also a little extra excited for Santa to arrive. They were bouncing off the walls most of the day.
We spent Christmas Day playing with the kids and their new gifts. Santa brought Kayley a new bike so we spent part of the afternoon helping her learn to ride a bigger bike. Starting and stopping are the issues. She needs a little help getting going and then she is fine until it is time to stop. She slows down and tries to jump off!
The kids have spent a lot of time outside this week because it has been so nice. High 40s and low 50s, which is really unusual for this time of year. But, no complaints here! I just wish it was going to be nice next week when Andy's family arrives so all of the cousins could play outside a lot! It isn't looking good though.
Here are a few pictures from cookie decorating and gift opening on Christmas morning and some video of our little singer Christmas night.
