Merry Mountain Home Christmas

One down and one to go. . . .we had a great visit in Mountain Home this past weekend. Mason got his first taste of Christmas. . .and being that it was him trying to eat the tissue paper, I'm not sure what he thought of it!!!! He loved the baby on the back of one of his boxes more than the actual toy. Braden, Blake G., Becki and I had a great time making sugar cookies and gingerbread houses! While we were hard at work Saturday morning, Blake ran a 5k and placed second in his age category.

Two handsome devils. Although we have teased in the past, we do truly have a Cousin Eddie. I promise he is nothing like the Grizwold's Cousin Eddie.

These Hulk fists are the funniest toys! They scream "you are making me angry, you won't like me when I'm angry." Braden LOVES them!

Mason loved the baby on the back of this box, more than he liked the toy!

We had a marathon of making sugar cookies and these adorable Gingerbread houses. I was definitely held in high favor, because darling Heather Horton let me borrow "real" frosting bags and decorative tips.

It was a Mother and son bonding moment, as the Griffin team of Becki and Blake put their design skills to work across the table from Christel and Braden.

Mason had no problems giving up the smiles for everyone this weekend!

Mack Daddy, Blake!

After Braden's 3 hour bath, Blake G. gave him this nice spiky do! As you all know, he loves to have crazy hair!

Poor Mason, Blake tried to give him a mohawk but there just isn't enough there, yet. He was happy to eat the wash cloth, though!
