December 16



After Madelyn's sleepover, Owen was hopeful that he could come back to our place to play with Madelyn for a while longer. We thought that was a great idea knowing what tonight's activity would be!

Owen read more Christmas stories to Madelyn on the way back to our house!

We love looking at Christmas lights, but having the cousins join us was great fun!

We packed up some hot cocoa and snacks, and hit the northwest valley to check out some of the best Christmas houses! (Thanks, Zona, for the link to the interactive map!) Chris entered all the addresses into his phone before we left and the we let the GPS do the rest! Fun, fun, fun!

We really loved the projection of Santa in the window here.
He was in and out of sight, ate cookies, etc. Very cute!

Here's a short video of one of the houses that had their lights set to music. (It was hard to pull ourselves away from this one):
