Christmas Break = Blog break

I didn't mean to take a blog break, it just kinda happened. So, to get back into the swing I'm gonna recap our break. We spent the first part doing as much as possible as a family in preparation for Kris to travel the world.

• Kris and the kids took a walk around our neighborhood. He took this fun picture of the kids playing in a pile of leaves.

• We also went bowling.

• The boys increased their proficiency in Donkey Kong Country Returns and Madden NFL 2011 on the Wii.

• We made edible Christmas trees. I had seen Kelly's blog post when she did these with her class and thought they would be a great substitution to the traditional ginger bread house. They were a hit!

• Kris and I went on a date to Olive Garden, YUM-O! It was a night of great, uninterrupted conversation.
  

• We watched The Nativity Story as a family and really enjoyed it.

I'll be posting about our Christmas soon :)
