Fred took a few days off while we were in Vegas!
December 14th, Fred left Madi this fun boxing kit to do with her daddy!
Tuesday after school, we brought all the girls on Madi's club volleyball team to our house for a Christmas party before evening practice.
First, they decorated cookies while eating a snack!

Next up was a fun Christmas gift exchange!
They all brought a fun gift to exchange - 5 out of the 8 brought blankets!
Love seeing Madi on our church's youth page even if she's covered up by Jackson!
December 15: Fred left a hot chocolate bomb for Madi and her daddy to have while they watch movies!
December 16: Fred left another lotto ticket!
Thursday we had a meeting at work then went to Stella's for our Favorite Things party Christmas addition! I went home with a blanket, pumpkin syrup for coffee and yummy olives!
Thursday night was our Christmas get together with the Foleys, Gibbs, Buxkempers and Ellises.
We had reservations at King Street for their Christmas dinner. It was a set menu and there were carolers as we ate.
Then we went back to the Foley's house for our white elephant gift exchange where we all truly bring something from home that we no longer want. I am now the proud owner of this huge porcelain pig!
Matt started with this family journal but went home with a notepad that also charges your phone.
Love our crew!
The kids did a gift exchange too! Madi brought a fun smore's maker complete with graham crackers, hershey bars and marshmallows! She got a fun burrito throwing game that we're going to play with the cousins over Christmas!
December 17th: Fred brought Madi another lotto ticket since she hadn't even scratched the one from yesterday!
Madi had a lock in at church Friday night and this is how she was when we picked her up Saturday morning. This is what no sleep looks like! :)
This is a screenshot of a short video on the Youth page showing all the fun they had going to Main Event, playing games, exchanging gifts and more!
Fred skipped December 18th since she was at church but on December 19th he hid in our tree!
Sunday afternoon after church, Madi's team had a scrimmage with a team a few years older. It was good to see her back on the court!
Her serves are getting better and she had a few good hits, attempted blocks and blocks!
Then Sunday night we had the Devitts, Norrises and Lewises over for our Christmas party!
We grilled out fajitas and played Left Right Center instead of exchanging gifts!
It was so much fun and the perfect way to celebrate!
December 20th: Fred is starting to be silly!
FOUR parties in one week definitely means it's Christmas time!
