Breakfast with Santa

We met Santa this morning. Jack was so excited, he was up at 6:15...ready to go! He wanted to be prepared for the meeting, so he has been drawing pictures of the items on his Christmas list (since he can't write the words out)!

Going over The List one last time


Jack seems pleased with the outcome of the meeting


And the obligatory shot of the baby who is afraid of the big red man!

Merry Christmas!!

It's been a while...

I've been lagging in the posting department, but we sure have been busy. We took a Barbato family trip to Perdido Key, FL over the week of Thanksgiving with Cullen's family.

The cousins spent a lot of time digging and filling big sand holes...

And piling up in Frannie and Pops' bed for movie time...


And having their Christmas pictures taken on the beach...



And since it is 80 degrees in December (and perfect convertible weather) Emily has decided that it is time to start learning some important life skills...

Like driving


And feeding herself with a spoon!

I hope you are all gearing up for Christmas with the ones that you love!
