Vaughn Family Christmas 2016

-
Last Sunday (the Sunday before Christmas) we went to Sparta for the Vaughn family Christmas.  This has been a very busy Christmas season, but three (3) events stick out in my mind: 1) Christmas lunch with my friends from court at my house; 2) adult Sunday School Christmas party and 3) Vaughn family Christmas.  It was awesome!





Will was able to spend some quality time with his extended family.





Uncle Jerry Brought his new streaming devise that lets you stream any movie currently in the theater.  The boys watched a few minutes of Moana. 




Sam spent at least a quarter of the party on the commode.  Sam is sick and I made the mistake of telling him that some of snot will come out in his bowel movements.  Therefore, for the rest of the day Sam sat on the commode and waiting for the snot to "exit" his body.  Try as I might, I couldn't make him understand that this isn't a instantaneous process. 


The boys opened presents from Nana.


















There was a family sing along.











Then . . . came the games. This game was so much fun. 





We also played "Watch Ya Mouth."









We ended up staying until about 7:00.  I think that we all agreed that it was one of our most fun Christmas' in a long time.  The night ended with an enormous group text message.  So much fun!

Today we woke up at 6:30 to prepare for our big day at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure. The shuttle from the hotel left for the park at 8:00 meaning that we had to be downstairs and ready to go at 7:45. At 7:30 we realized that we had to book our spot on the shuttle the night before. Oops. For two people with jobs requiring close attention to detail we completely fall apart in our personal life. Fortunately we were able to purchase a ticket and catch the 8:00 shuttle anyway. The shuttle ride was interesting; we ended up sitting behind a young couple that could have left about 90% of their PDA in their hotel room and it still would have been too much for my taste. When we got to the park we noticed our ticket required that we show I.D. Well, I didn't bring my purse with me. Oops. After reading and rereading the fine print, we lawyerly types figured out an interpretation that would allow me to get into the park without producing photo i.d. We geared up for the fight

Wednesday night I got a strange phone call from Michael; he asked if I could get an ice pack and a couple ibuprofen ready for him.  Check it out . . .   He went to the doctor Thursday morning and came home with a boot, a pressure sock and a pair of crutches.  Looks like he will be out of commission for approximately two months.

On Sunday morning we slept until 9:30!  Finn was up with the sun, of course, but Sam slept until a little after 9:00. When we got up the sun was shining so we decided to hang the boys gourd bird house from Mr. Gene.  So far we have really enjoyed going to church on Sunday night.  Finn specifically told me that he likes night church better because he can get up and play.  The boys had a pajama party at school today.  It was in honor of Ms. Jenn's last day before maternity leave.  Finn was very excited to show his friends his godzilla feet. Big morning for Finn.  Last night was the first night that we have not put a nighttime pull-up on Finn.  He woke up with a dry bed!
