Luke's School Christmas Party

Luke has such a great teacher she is always doing awesome activities with them. She had them make snow for the party the kids loved it and loved the way it felt.

It was close to the real thing except for the fact that I don't think it belonged in Scottsdale.

All the kids brought in a book to exchange with another kid in the class.

Luke loved his book it was the 12 Dogs of Christmas

Luke and his good buddy Charlie. Charlie is such a good buddy. He waits for Luke every morning on the playground. The two of them play great together. I think it is cute because Ben has a BFF named Charlie too.

Conner, Charlie, and Lukey

Conner is a cutie too he always lets Luke know when I am there to pick him up yelling Luke's mom is here. He cracks me up!

Daddy and Will joined us at the party towards the end. Luke and Will were so happy to see each other you would think it had been years since they last saw each other instead of a few min.

Will got his feelings hurt when another kid yelled at him for taking food off of Luke's plate. It was so cute he just hugged me and pouted. I told Will he takes all the stuff Luke does to him on a daily basis and never pouts and this kids says one thing to him and he couldn't brush it off. It's a CRUEL world little Will time to toughen up!

Merry Christmas!

Advanced Orthodontics Staff Christmas Party

This year we had the Christmas party at Prime Bar in the Scottsdale Quarter. I had planned the party and it was a lot of fun for everyone.

Carly, Liz, Jennifer, Renee, and Cali. (April, Renee Q., Jess, and Sarah are not pictured) but were all there to celebrate the holidays.

Mark and Lizzy

I had a fun game we played in the beginning of the night and the winner of that game got to be the last person to pick from the grab bag. I had fun with this I got everyone a gift and wrote on the gift tag to the bag a description of what might be inside the bag. For example. The bags tag would say, I'm Fancy, I'm Expensive, I'm Hungry, etc... The I'm Expensive bag was taken away the most.

It was all fun and games till the end when they got to open the bag and realized everyone got the same thing an AMEX Gift card. It was a lot of fun and they all loved it. They were PUNKED! ha ha

I think I enjoyed it the most

The girls got Ben a Michigan blanket and he LOVES ALL THINGS MICHIGAN!

They also made a list of Dr. Larrabee's famous quotes he uses around the office on a daily basis. They were pretty funny.

Lizzy and I

Ben has such a great staff I love all the girls and we appreciate all the hard work they do. Thank you ladies and Merry Christmas!

Ben, baby, and I had a fun night out!

The BOYS

The boys got new jammies the other day and of course they loved them seeing they were Spiderman Jammies.

Two cute Spiderman Boys

Their Spidy sense in tingling . Ha Ha!

Our good friend and neighbor Dan, was over watching the new 3D TV. These two BOYS were loving it!

My Cashew Kid!

Will loves cashews he is always going in the pantry and pointing to the container of cashews. He would eat the whole thing if I let him. He looks like such a big boy sitting in the chair all by himself eating what I think is a grownup snack.

YUM YUM's

A Busy December

Grandma Sue came back to visit for a long weekend while Ben went with his buddies to the Navy vs. Army game in Philly. Grandma Sue gave the boys their Christmas gifts early since she won't be here for Christmas. The boys got a gift a night they loved it.

We went to my friend Shannon's daughter's 1st Birthday in the park it was a beautiful day. The kids loved running around. Here is Lukey posing for me.

Shannon's husband Landon gave the boys footballs to play with and they had a fun time with that.

The pass

It is so fun to watch them playing together.

I love that football hold

My mom and I got our exercise that day chasing the boys around.

My Dr. Thuy that delivered Will, myself, and Shannon are all pregnant Thuy and I are due around the same time and Shannon is due with girl #3 in May.

Baby Braelyn turns 1!

The other night I took Luke to see Addie and Sky in there Christmas performance. LUKE LOVED IT! He was in AWE of the girls and loved the whole performance. He kept yelling out at all the quiet moments saying, mom I love this show.

Lisa, Roger, and Jaidyn

Luke had to take his camera with him taking fake pictures all night long but them wanted his picture with the girls after the show.

Baby showers and birthday parties and just to think Christmas is just around the corner too. This has been a busy month. My friend Megan is due with a baby girl in January too. She had a Sprinkle at her house to celebrate the baby girls arrival. Megan has a 2 year old boy Grayson who is so adorable and lovable. He is going to be a GREAT big bro to his baby sister.

Megan having fun with all the PINK coming her way!

Grandma Sue got her Christmas gift early too. We got her a new camera so she can snap pics with all the sweet memories she will want to remember.

One of the gifts that Grandma Sue gave the boys was a Woody doll. They were so excited Luke has been wanting one and was so excited to get it. Will loved taking his hat on and off. I wrote their name on the foot just like ANDY did. Thanks grandma Sue the boys loved all their gifts you really spoiled them.

Grandma Sue and her two favorite boys!

Horse and Carriage Ride

I forgot to add the pics of my mom, Luke, and I on the horse and carriage ride. Ben walked home with Will he was getting to be a handful. Maybe next year he will be able to take a ride.

My mom, Grandma Sue and Lukey

It was a neighborhood hit!

Luke's Christmas Concert and Windgate Christmas Party

Luke had his Christmas program at school the other night it was great. He was so cute waving to us and singing. My mom was in town so she got to see him too. It was a very special moment for us to watch him up there.

Luke was in the back row center in the red plaid shirt. His class sang three songs.

My sweet LUKE!

After his concert we all went to the neighborhood holiday party had dinner, saw Santa, and had a horse and carriage ride through the neighborhood.

I took the boys u to Santa Luke was ok with him but Will was not having it.

Santa was so good with Luke he took his time and talked to him and before you knew it Luke was sitting on his lap.

Santa and Luke

Merry Christmas from the Larrabees
