Christmas Eve in all it's glory...
Mom cookin' it up,
with Melissa on stand by ready to snipe any extra food that came her way.
And Maeryn getting some cooking tips too.
And the rest of the gang, watching the Cardinals almost win.
Thanks for playing along Kevin, love that expression!
Next stop, Dad's house.
Remember how I said Melissa was ready to snipe? Well, mission accomplished!
I think we were in the house about 30 seconds... Man, she's quick!
This picture says it all.
Maeryn, meet Maverick. Maverick, meet your nemesis...
Dad showing off his new leather jacket, ooh la la!
Yes ladies, he's single. :-)
Can you actually hear her saying "cheese"? I can.
Like I said Mav, she's the boss. Sorry buddy.
Kenney Family Christmas Eve Outing: Muppets Movie!
Maeryn was pumped to see her good friends the chipmunks at the theatre.
AKA: THE CHIKMUNX.
This was no ordinary trip the the movies...
Let me run down just a few of the events that took place.
The guy sitting next to Drew fell asleep a minimum of two times
(once before the previews even started, and then he woke himself up
while SNORING mid-movie). Maeryn spent half the movie up dancing
in the aisle, playing with Drew's hair, climbing up and down out of my lap,
Kevin's lap, Mal's lap and her own seat, she actually got her shoe stuck
in between the two seats in front of us at one point and Mal had to take
the shoe off in order to dislodge it. There was a small infant in the row behind us,
which Maeryn began rocking at one point (because it was sleeping
in it's car-seat... it did not stay asleep). And of course we had Melissa with us
(an adventure in itself), Drew said there was more popcorn in her lap
than what ended up in her mouth!
Ma Na Mi Na!
Great times!!
Maeryn went to bed eagerly anticipating a visit from Santa.
And as promised... Cookies and "ice cold milk" for the guy in red.
(and carrots for the reindeer)
There is nothing like the excitement that Christmas brings...
another reason this blog exists in the first place,
I NEVER want to forget these moments!
