Merry Christmas!

Christmas was a low key affair in the Gillam house this year. To be honest it was welcomed as these past few weeks have been a whirlwind of moving, decorating the new house for Christmas, and best of all trying to figure out where the movers put all of the Christmas decorations. We managed to get it all together the weekend before, so our new home finally felt like home and Christmas!



Christmas Eve:

 Christmas Day:

Santa was generous again this year bringing Connor a basketball shoot-out game for the basement and Cooper a pingpong table. 

My beautiful Christmas Tree before it was littered with wrapping paper! ;-)

The basketball game and ping pong table were a hit!



Both boys got Dreamlites; Connor got a really cool Jayhawk one, which of course made Cooper jealous. I should have listened to my smart husband and got them both Jayhawk Dreamlites. Don't worry, Cooper has reassured me time and time again that he would be ok with me returning the penguin and replacing it with a Jayhawk! 

New shoes! This child goes through at least two pair of tennis shoes a year, please tell me this is not the average for a school-aged boy!
