More Christmas

We took the kids to Galey's Farm. It is the same place that we took them for Halloween. But they have changed it all over to a Christmas theme. With Reindeer and everything!! Rudolph was too busy with all of the other appearances that he had to do so we didn't get to see his red nose. But Comet, Cupid and Dasher were there :)


We took the same train ride too.
This is a LOT blurry but it is the Grinch...on the potty. LOL!!!
OH WAIT!!!!! There is Rudolph...he's doing a fly over.
Its a bit dark but this one is for my mommy. Check out the penguins!!!!
After the train ride we walked through their version of Santa's Workshop.








Everyone was there helping Santa, we had The Muppets, The (creepy looking) Cat in The Hat, and of course the Grinch up to his tricks again.


Looks like Miss Piggy even lost weight. I guess she wasn't doing "Jenny" with Kirstie Alley. LOL!!!



Here the kids are making picture frames for Daddy. They each put their hand print on paper and framed them.







Okay, I know I haven't even gotten to Christmas Day yet, but it is bed time. I will post again in the next week sometime.

Christmas Time at The Gallaghers

The kids made Rice Krispie Houses instead of Gingerbread Houses. Actually we still have the gingerbread houses too...we never did get around to making those ones. Guess we got something to do while James sails next month. LOL!!







Chino likes the ice cream...but apparently the ice cream doesn't agree too much with Chino. We found that one out the next day. YUCK!!




There are still lots more to come but these ones are just so my mom GETS OFF MY BACK!!! LOL!!! Just kidding mommy :)




Auntie Courtney's Visit

My baby sister came for a visit the other weekend. We really didn't do anything besides hang out on the couches and watch movies. The weather was crappy so we couldn't really do much. But I promise Courtney, next time we will actually leave the house. LOL!!!


Check out how strong Keenan is, he pick her up right off the ground!!


The kids LOVE Auntie Courtney!!
They were even her hair dressers. LOL
Then on Sunday we met up with our Dad and Gail so they could get her back home. We went to Denny's and it was THE WORSE SERVICE EVER!!! We sat there for over an hour and all we got served was our drinks. I won't go into the details but lets just say we eventually just left and ate at the food court at the mall.

Catching up

Mom was giving me a hard time about not posting enough so I will try to do some catch up....but I am not promising lots. LOL!!!

We have had some good times lately and I will try to get some pics in, Here are some clips and pictures of Keenan's Christmas concert. He was sooo AWESOME!! He is such a cutie!!


Here is Haylei with the other two girls from daycare. Amanda and Brycee
















Keenan was in the Sooke Santa Parade with his dance class...he is in Boys Hip Hop.



We were a little early for the parade so we took them McDonalds first to burn off some energy.


Seriously!! HOW CUTE ARE THEY!!??

Sleepless in Victoria

Well, another sleepless night. And worse tonight, James is duty, Haylei is having nightmares/dreams all night and calling out. So here I am at 04:25 in the morning posting.....tomorrow is going to be a rough one.
Well anyways, I know I said that I had mor pics to post but I don't want to be on here ALL night. LOL!! I am thinking maybe I should try to get in a nap before I have to get up for work in an hour.....


But I did want to get some Christmas photos so I will post some of our house so you can all see what I am so proud of. The maybe friday night I will throw some up of the kids and such.


Here is our tree and a couple of me pretending to take "good" pics, it is hard to do with this crappy cybershot I have but I will make do with it for now :(









First we will start by going around the yard just to show you how big some tof these things are.


Only in Victoria can you get away with being outside in Dec with no jacket...mind you we were only outside long enough to turn everything on. Not that that took much because James MADE a special extension cord that is 100 feet in length and there are 7 outdoor electrical boxed spaced along it. So that way we plug everything (almost into one long convenient cord and don't have the ugly sight of multiple extension cords all over the yard. Isn't he AWESOME?? So handy :)
And the Finale!! Well, almost. I can never seem to be happy with what I do... and James sin't much better. So we will be replacing the ucucles on the top roof with some new LED icicles. It will sooooo much better. I will post another pic when that fets done.

I hope you enjoyed our decorations...just wait til next year....it just keeps growing and growing. Next year I will have to add MORE to the display!!
