Sorry, I know Christmas was so last year, I'm just slow!

You can't tell in this picture but there are over 70,0000 lights on the house behind us, it is truly the Christmas Vacation house. The owners are friends of ours and every Christmas Eve Santa's out front. He always has treats and a surprise for our kids. Brock thinks if we decorated our house as good as theirs Santa would visit us too.
Brock loved helping Lacey open her gifts, and she just loved the paper.

I love making candy houses, so that was one tradition
I made sure and started after we got married. But little did I know the boys would make up their own tradition. I didn't even find out about it till Brock was four and while making his house he said "my favorite part is hitting this with my bat" I looked at him confused and Justin just started laughing. They had been beating all the houses after Christmas on Saturdays I worked. It has since then escalated with the use of fire works, and guns for the demos.
