Holiday Fun!

I just realized I haven't posted anything in a while so I thought I would get caught up! We have been so busy Christmas shopping, decorating the house, and participating in lots of holiday fun! The first 2 pictures are of the Summerville Fire Department riding through our neighborhood with their lights on and sirens blasting! We thought the neighborhood was on fire at first...then to our surprise, we saw Santa riding on top of the fire truck waiving to all the kids and throwing candy out at us! Hayden said "mommy...we live in the coolest neighborhood"! Hayden and I have come home several times over the past week and found little goodies at our front door from a few of our very thoughtful neighbors. They have been so wonderful since Scott has been gone! It's nice to know they are here! We are baking Christmas cookies tomorrow and plan to surprise our neighbors and share our goodies with them!

The next pictures are just a couple that we took at the James Island County Park...Festival of Lights! We had a ball once again this year! Hayden roasted marshmellos...mommy helped him EAT the marshmellos! :) We saw Santa, looked at the big sand sculpture, looked at all of the giant Christmas cards, road the carousel and the train, and shared some hot chocolate! We had SOOOOO much fun! Just like with everything else we are doing this year...we really missed Daddy!!!! But we are so excited he will be home VERY SOON!!

The last picture is of Hayden goofing around with a Santa hat on I bought him! That was the night we decorated the house and put up the Christmas tree. We have also been attending some birthday parties and Hayden had a great Christmas party at school!

We have started decorating the nursery FINALLY! It's been painted along with a beautiful border around the whole room. I've found all of Hayden's clothes that we kept so those have all been washed and put in their place! I have the dresser full of things and the changing table is starting to get filled up! I've slowly been buying things here and there like the window treatment and hamper that match the theme of his room. Now I'm just waiting for Daddy to get home to hang the window treatment and put the crib together! As you can see, we have been VERY busy! I think that about covers it for now!

We hope everyone is enjoying their holiday!!!
