So this post comes about two months later than it should have, but we had a great time celebrating the holidays again in 2013 with the Surprise House!
December 3: Put up the Christmas tree!
Since we didn't get back from Thanksgiving until December 2nd, we didn't get started with the Surprise House until the 3rd. And as most things go, we had some set-backs. Most of our lights (which all worked last year) no longer worked, so instead of putting up our tree we hung out stockings and set up our tree the next day.
We had fun cooking our dinner in the fireplace and also setting up the tree.
This is a holiday favorite for all of us....we love Dr. Seuss!
We all piled into our bed for a family movie night.
Love Chick-fil-A's seasonal Peppermint Chocolate Chip shakes....yummy!
We all enjoyed getting to watch Parker participate in his 1st grade program at school. He did a great job!

We love Target's holiday-flavored milk.
The kids had an absolute BLAST painting ornaments, decorating cookies, drinking hot chocolate, and watching movies while Andrew and I were at a Christmas party. Thanks again, guys!
One of our favorite traditions.
I saw these on Pinterest and just had to make them.
We were excited to play with Charity so that Corey and Blythe could go out!
Just glow sticks and a bathtub. What could be easier?
With red and green tortillas chips, of course.
Since we are usually not home on the actual holidays, we celebrate separately with just the four of us before leaving town. We opened stockings, a special Christmas Eve present (new PJs), and watched a Christmas movie together!
Our Christmas morning at home.
The next day we left for Oklahoma where we spent the holidays with family, so stay tuned for a post about that!
