December 2017 Part 5 - Mickey's Christmas Carol, Cemetery, Science Spectrum, Gingerbread Train, and More!!!!

12-26-17  Cereal and Mickey's Christmas Carol

12-27-17 We ran some errands and went to the cemetery to place a Poinsettia at Nathan's grave.  We didn't stay long because it was so cold, and Jacen didn't want to get out of the car.  It still makes him sad to go to the cemetery.

12-28-17 Jacen and I met Amy Stanley and kids to play at Science Spectrum for the afternoon.  The kids had a great time!!!  The even got to play in the little kid area because Zoee is still under 5, so Jacen was thrilled!!!!

12-29-17 We finally got around to putting his Gingerbread train together and decorating it!  It was a fun family afternoon!

12-29-17 Then that evening it was Mommy Jacen time while Daddy went to his friend Wiley's house.  So Jacen played Disney Infinity, we ate yummy Mexican food for dinner from Chilitos Peper Cafe, and finally finished building his Double Decker bus!!!!

12-30-17 Playing more Disney Infinity!!  Then we ran errands which included a stop at Coldstone Creamery for ice cream!!

Then we ate biscuits and sausage gravy for breakfast while watching Charlie Brown Christmas.  Also during the day we watched Avengers movies!

Jacen enjoyed some time playing video games on his computer and playing Xbox with Daddy!

Then that evening we got back out to look at Christmas lights because we didn't get to Wayland Baptist in time the night before to see their lights set to music!!!

Finally, before bed we read the real Christmas story!

Here is a video from the 23rd while we were riding in the helicopter looking at lights!
