Decorating at work - The Polar Express

My work really goes all out when it comes to the holidays. We had ugly sweater day last week - sorry no pictures!! This week we had a competition on decorating our work areas. My pod did the Polar Express. Other pods and area did A Snoopy Christmas, Winter Wonderland, and classic simple Christmas. Here are some pictures of the Polar Express.

We aore our PJs since that is what they wore on the Polar Express. We had a lot of fun and the patients enjoyed it also!!

Mommy's Work - Kids Christmas Party

Today was the Christmas party for kids at mommy's work. We has a BLAST!!When we got there we got to decorate bags that we would later use for the pinatas.

Here is Kenna's bag - isn't it pretty!!

Here is Ashlyn's - she decorated both sides & the bottom!

These are the outfits that my friend Wendi made for the girls last year. I just LOVE them!!

Our neighbors dad works with mommy - here they are all together. Natalie, Ashlyn, Eli, Bella and Kenna ... I am not sure where Micha went??

Kenna just found out that Santa and Mrs. Claus were here and there would be presents for everyone! How EXCITING!!

She really wanted to get that pinata!!!

Decorating our Christmas Tree

This is daddy's very first Christmas ornament. He puts this one on the tree first and then we all get to help out. This ornament is really, really old!!

Now its Ashy's turn!!

Our Christmas Tree

We went to cut down our family Christmas tree today. The girls love doing this - it is so much fun. First stop was Home Depot to get our wreath for the front door.

Ashy helped carry the wreath to the car.

This is the one - now daddy needs to cut it down. It was a little cold, at least it was not snowing this year.

Here it is ....

I think the girls look forward to the hot apple cider more than cutting down the tree. Yummy!!!

silly lucas girls!!

This is classic Ashlyn being Ash. She dresses up in crazy outfits all the time. She actually wanted to go out with me looking like this ... NO WAY!!!!

Kenna's nose was bleeding so she went upstairs and came down looking like this. She stuck cotton balls in her nose and held it on with band-aids. If you didn't know - Kenna HATES the sight of blood ... she was freaking out. I laughed so hard when I saw this - she got so mad at me.

The girls are so silly some times they make me laugh. We love our "girl time" together!

The Coopers Came to Visit

The Coopers came to Oregon again this summer and we have gotten together a couple of times. I hope we get to see them some more before they have to go back home in mid August. Brian is coaching baseball, the kids & Erin came to stay with him for a bit. That gives us some time to visit. We went to dinner at Players. Here are some picture from that night and one from when we met and played at Out of This World Pizza and Play.

The girls (Kenna, Ashlyn & McKenna) were being so goofy ... they have a good time together. Too bad we didn't live close together all the time.

Camden didn't want to be in the picture with the girls

Oh NO ... Look Out ... Kenna's driving!!!!

Ashlyn LOVES this game

Camden won A LOT of tickets!!
