Pre-Christmas Festivities
Auntie Lori invited us to her neighborhood to enjoy some Christmas activities. We had a wonderful time enjoying the season and hanging out with one of our favorite families!
Asher’s favorite activity was playing in the snow. He could have stayed there all night, despite how cold it got in the evening. We had some fun times having a snow ball fight. It brought Asher great joy to be able to throw snow at Mommy. The real award goes to “Guy in the Black Jacket” for letting my boy pummel you for an hour. Thank you for being fun.
They love each other.
Poor Punks. Apparently I haven’t been outside much in the evenings now, because I would have brought you a jacket and warmer clothes had I known it’s frigid! I guess it didn’t seem to bother you much :).
Asher enjoyed another opportunity to make sure Santa heard about him wanting a bow and arrow for Christmas. And, Beck, pulled on another Santa’s beard, ha!
Nothing says Christmas like Spidey.
These pictures make us smile and laugh.
Asher and I went on a little date together to walk around a neighborhood and look at lights. He was so excited. Before we got out of the car he said, “Mommy, it’s just us! We’re on a date!” He squealed his way around that neighborhood. People were chuckling at his excitement. I love his enthusiasm. We were walking along and he shouts out, “Mommy, look, it’s the Angel Gabriel!!!”
We were so thankful for some nice people to have a fire and steaming hot chocolate for us to enjoy!
This house was pretty cool with a Santa and a light show to music. Asher said, “Mommy, can we stay here for awhile so I can dance?” He drew a crowd, ha!
Lorraine came and swept Asher away for an afternoon of making Gingerbread Houses and Christmas gifts and ornaments for us. It was so fun to have him come home with stories of their time together, and so much excitement to give us his gifts. He made me a necklace that says, “Love, Jesus, Love” on it and asked if I will wear it every time I go to church. Ha! Thank you, Lorraine, for loving our boys!!!

I’m the luckiest. Love you guys! One of these days Lorraine and I are going to have to join efforts on an Awesome Olimb day.
Love snowball fights! Looks like everyone had a great time-I don’t think Beck minded at all with the huge Smiles on his face! As always you captured all the perfect moments,great job Honey!
You are making so many great Christmas memories! What wonderful friends you have in Lori and Lorraine. I can’t imagine what would happen if they tag teamed :).
Love all the smiles and activities you were able to do! Couldn’t help but laugh at Beck’s mouth open super wide for his candy cane!
How did I miss that snow day! I can’t top Auntie Lori with that! I would always like to spend time with Olimb boys and Auntie Lori! I loved Asher’s gingerbread design. So much improved from last year! And he was so proud that he could make a giant A on it!
