Counting Down

In this last week before Christmas, we've been running errands, making some last minute Christmas gifts, wrapping things and trying to keep some holiday magic going. This year the boys have made Christmas really special for Reed and I--we both agree that this year they both seem to really FEEL it, and their excitement and wonder are contagious. It's been so fun doing starting new traditions and bringing old ones back. Sharing Christmas movies that we watched as children with them as they finally not only understand but are eager to watch.
One of the things we did this week was go to Bass Pro Shop to see Santa's Workshop. We'd already been to see the big man at our mall, but I'd heard that the workshop was alot of fun and we had a free day, so I figured two visits to put in a good word wouldn't hurt.
After assuring Santa that they have both been very good and letting him know that Carson wants a nerf gun ("I promise I won't shoot my baby sister") and Trevor wants a medium bike ("Because I'm a medium boy now"), they were ready to check out the other fun things at the workshop. Of course I made them pose for a few pictures first.

Watch the fish...



As it passed their heads here, it totally took a fish dump. I was laughing hysterically and the boys wanted to know why.



Carson made the same face just after the click, but I caught Trevor's...priceless:



Gotta love Bass Pro Shop!
