Our Aweful Beautiful Life

I promised a Christmas post. As always, our Christmas was BEYOND blessed with time with family, and wonderful gifts to be given and received. We truly enjoyed it this year, and the kids were soo much fun! Christmas Eve was on a Monday this year, so Jason worked most of the day, then rushed home in time to shower, and head out the door to church at Remington. The kids sprinkled their reindeer food on the way out the door and set out the milk/cookies before heading off to bed. Here are some pictures of Christmas Eve with the Hall side of the family. Gram & Gramps & their kiddos! (4.5, 2.5 & 1 month) The gangs all here! Our family of 4! Uncle T & Colton - godparent picture. Happy Grandma & Grandpa I have a feeling Jason took this of Trent. Worth keeping.... Godparent picture - Aunt Sarah, Em & Uncle Matt Christmas Chaos -- just like I remember from when I was a kid opening gifts on Christmas eve in this house! Uncle Matt ...

 This past weekend, we were blessed to get to spend the weekend in Indy with my parents. I've still got free nights at the Hyatt, so we decided to capitalize on that and visit the Children's Museum, Monument Circle Lights and a few of our favorite downtown spots. We even went to the historic and beautiful St. Johns for church. It was a WONDERFUL weekend getaway! Again, I'll let the pictures tell the story.  Diggin for bones! Dinosaur outfits! Little Dinosaur Scuba Emmalyn! Love the blown glass sculpture! Taking Mamps & Paps for a ride in Egypt! Emmalyn & Daddy making Egyptian music Hot Wheels! Racing cars! Biker Babe. Love these 4! "Ice Skating" Snowball fight! Driving the skidsteer! Playing in the water -- Mamps was a great sport! Carousel ride. Waiting our turn for the giant Christmas slide! Colton beat Mom! Jason and Em paced themselves...
