An Early Christmas at BooBoo & Pop-Pop's House

We celebrated an early Christmas at BooBoo & Pop-Pop's (Derek's mom & step-dad) house while we were in GA earlier this month. Maleah, Lucas, & Elly as well as an aunt & uncle of Derek & Maleah's were able to join us, so it was a lot of fun having everyone together! Here are a few pictures of our evening together....

BooBoo explaining to Shelby how to do her art project. Shelby & Elly were
supposed to make a mini wreath out of Cheerios and melted green candy.

Stirring the cheerios and melted candy together...

But when it came time to assemble the wreath, there were a whole lot of
sampling going on ;)

In the end, no wreaths were made..but I'm pretty sure Shelby enjoyed herself!

The 4 "big kids" working on our annual Christmas art project! This year we made sleighs out of candy.
Derek's mom is very creative and always comes up with new & unique ideas. It's
always a fun project & brings out a bit of creativity & competitiveness in all of us! :)

Shelby & I posing with my finished project. Shelby wanted to "help" me
with my project, but I'm pretty sure she was only interested in sneaking bites
of the candy!! ;)

This is a singing Christmas tree..Shelby & Elly both LOVED it!

BooBoo & Pop-Pop just got new bunk beds for their basement in preparation
for cousin sleepovers in the near future! Shelby & Elly had a blast playing on the
top bunk. It made Mommy very nervous, so I made Daddy stand guard!

Shelby shared her favorite game with Elly...taking laps! Both girls
had a lot of fun doing this!
