Presents!

It was a great Christmas!  Clara and I must have been good throughout the year because we got lots of fun presents!  Here's some of the highlights...

Santa definitely came to our house - he left us pictures on Mom's phone! 

Clara got a trampoline!

I got a soccer goal and nerf guns!

After we got to see our Santa presents, we started opening our family presents!

Clara was excited to get Princess Anna's dress (from Frozen) and a baby doll stroller!

I got the Paw Patrol all-terrain vehicle and some more race cars! 

There was a giant present under the tree that I had waited so long to unwrap!  I knew exactly what it was - and I was right!

It was a Bat Bot!

 We also got some new games that are fun to play!

We got puzzles too! 

Clara had to take a break in the middle of the puzzle to tell Aunt Nichole something!

Who knew that stacking and lining up cones could be so entertaining?

Grandpa Mark was glad to help Clara figure out her new camera!

Christmas Eve!

This year we stayed home for Christmas!  Aunt Nichole and Uncle Skylar came to Atlanta so we were able to spend time with them over several days.  We started celebrating with everyone on Christmas Eve!

Dad and I made gingerbread cookies for everyone to decorate!

My favorite part was rolling out the dough! 

We helped Grandma B open up one of her presents - it was a karaoke machine!  It didn't take me long to figure out what to do with it!

I didn't want to put the microphone down but Owen had moved onto his cars! 

Of course we took a family picture in front of our Christmas tree!

Later we watched a movie - Frozen of course!  And with my Anna and Elsa dolls... 

Aunt Nichole was excited to watch Frozen with us, too!

Before we went to bed, we said good-bye to Bobby the Elf.  He had to head back to the North Pole with Santa!

Here's a video of our "Let It Go" performance!  We definitely could use some practice!

Macy's Pink Pig!

Since we stayed home for Christmas this year, we got to check out some of the Atlanta traditions!

We rode the Macy's Pink Pig!  Mom said she rode this when she was little too!  That's Priscilla the Pig behind us! 

It was a family event!

Mom and Owen rode in one car together!

Dad and I rode in another!  It was a tight fit!

Here's what the Pink Pig ride actually looks like!

After the Pink Pig, we grabbed lunch.  Owen and I wanted to sit by ourselves so we told Mom and Dad to sit at their own table!

Happy Birthday to Me - Finally!

After all of the birthday parties I've gone to, it was finally my turn!  Since we stayed at home for Christmas this year, we had my birthday party just a few days before my actual birthday.  Just about all of my friends (there were a lot) were able to come to my party!

We have my party at Champion Kids - there was all sorts of things to play on, including a foam pit with a rope swing!

Clara liked the trampoline of course - they made her tired and she had to rest!

After the running and jumping, we had pizza and pirates booty!

And of course cake!  Mom and Dad took a break from making cakes this year and I got a Cars 3 cake!

Since I was the birthday boy, I got to sit in the giant blow up chair!

Ollie tried it out with me!

Everyone sang me happy birthday and I made a wish!  After cake we got to swing at a pinata to get it to break and spill candy all over!  (No pictures - all the grown ups were too busy making sure the pinata was the only thing to get hit!)

Here's the best group picture Mom got from the party - Emmaline, Spencer, Elliott, Trent and Ward.  We've known each other since we were tiny babies! 

When we got home, I got to open up all of my gifts from my friends!

Here I am on the rope swing!

Here's my friends singing me Happy Birthday!  (Landon thought it was a little loud - or maybe just bad singing by everyone!)

Minnie Party!

My friend Clare invited me to her Minnie-themed birthday party!  I had lots of fun - especially in the jumpy house!

I got my own pair of Minnie ears!

We played with play-doh!

And read books!

Here I am with my friend Ford and Clare (the birthday girl)! 

Here's all the party animals and our Minnie ears!
