Christmas at Cheekwood

So I realized I hadn't transferred these pictures from my phone.  Since I'm always behind on my blog anyway I figured there was no reason not to post them.  :) 
We visited Cheekwood during the Christmas season for the first time and we had so, much fun! Here the kids are in front of the live reindeer.
 
 Santa's helper let the kids hold these antlers and take some cool pictures.  They loved it!

 Sitting in Santa's sleigh!

 Craft time!
 Cookie decorating (and eating) time!

 Another beautiful, fun family day!

Donuts with Dad

Everyone was very excited about "Donuts with Dad" at school! 

Here is Jacob's "All About Dad" sheet.  I was excited to see that I am married to a 600lb, wine drinking man!  Ha!
Here is Anna's sheet. These are such treasures! 

Jacob's 5th Birthday!! - Friend Edition

Jacob had his friend birthday party at Pump it Up.  He had an absolute blast and we had so much fun celebrating him!!



 


 


 

 
 











 

Jacob's 5th Birthday!! - Family Edition

Jacob is FIVE!!!  He is such a big guy!  He started the day with an "Everything Bagel with Cream Cheese" per his request.

Jacob's birthday was on a school day so I brought chocolate chip cookies for his class.  He had originally requested almond bear claws (how much do I love this child?!) but we discovered those are a "seasonal" item for Costco.  He was excited to have me visit his class and to wear the classroom birthday hat! 

 After school Jacob was excited to see his presents! 
 Anna wanted to have her picture made too!  :)
 Jacob's birthday dinner request was "Cinco de Mayo", his favorite restaurant! 

 He was excited to wear the huge sombrero and was disappointed when he realized he couldn't bring it home. 
 He loved his fried ice cream!


Jacob always enjoys having a lemon as his finishing touch on a  Mexican meal.
  Back at home, we had a quick family picture before opening presents!

  Monster truck!

 Georgia football helmet!
 It even fits Uncle David!
 However, we think Jacob wears it better.  :)
  Titans flag!

We had such a wonderful day celebrating our favorite boy!  At five years old Jacob continues to have the sweetest spirit and we just love him to pieces!  He loves football, especially the Titans, and playing chase and wrestling.  He loves learning about animals and telling his family, his pre-school teachers and his Sunday school teachers animal facts he has learned.  His favorite books are non-fiction animal books.  His favorite shows are "Wild Kratts" and "Jake and the Neverland Pirates".  Jacob loves playing games and especially loves "Spider-man Uno".  His favorite foods are chicken-broccoli soup, Cheetos, Doritos, and Havarti cheese on crackers. He continues to sleep with "Coffee Bear" every night.  We are amazed at how quickly these past five years have passed and how much fun it has been! We LOVE, LOVE, LOVE our Jacob!!!
