Cookies are great, but no thanks to the hot chocolate.
Holding on tight to his ticket. He didn't want it to blow away.

Hello Santa!
We had a magical experience this year on the Polar Express. Jake wasn't sure he wanted to go on the train after seeing the movie. He is a little afraid of the ice scene. Once we were on the train with family and friends he was super excited. It is a great reminder of the Magic of Christmas. He was so thrilled he wanted to take his book to school the next day and show all his friends the conductor's signature. If you are around him anytime soon be prepared to play Polar Express. Don't expect to be the conductor though, that is strictly Jake's job. It is too cute when he calls out "All Aboard!"
Grammy has been putting up a hard fight against cancer. She is currently undergoing her transplant and last round of chemo in the hospital(and still smiling). She is not allowed to see anyone who has germs, which means she can't see the boys. So, we decided to make her a quilt with pictures of the boys on it so she could snuggle them whenever she wants. She is truly someone to be admired. Here she is fighting cancer, basically being poisoned. She doesn't complain. She just puts on a smile and says what is next to make me better for my boys. The whole family is so proud of her and we love her dearly. We are all looking forward to the fun that is ahead when Grammy feels better.
