It was busy, and we went a lot of places, but we did it all together. And I liked it.
Tonight we drove around looking at Christmas lights.
You might not know this about me yet, but I love when things don't make sense. Like this Santa/wizard Christmas light display. Awesome.
There's a lot going on in this picture. Love the dinosaur. So Christmas. For real.
This gets me.

we drive through there every friday. love it.
whole family things are so much fun. glad you all had a great day. =)
Our whole family went to Meijer today. Not quite as exciting as looking at Christmas lights, but we did talk in the car since traffic is insane in Merr. I guess when your kids are teens, anytime they talk to you is a good time!
Sounds perfect! I absolutely love doing everything together as a family!! It makes everything that much better. And the lights.... Awesome.
sounds like a great day! I can't wait to get the kids into the snow (Lauren's 3rd winter, Ayvie's first)!
loves "Christmas light that dont make sense" we have a frog with a santa hat on!
Does being sick as a family together count? That's what we did on Friday. All 5 of us, home and sick. It was raining and I thought to myself--this would be my perfect day, all home together in the rain, except that we were sick! This reminds me, I need to plan a night to drive around with my kids & look at lights.
Can we have the Dinosaur and the wizard together then it would be perfect.
Oh I love days like this too:)
We had one as well (except when Wolf snuck away with Bean and Sam and left Mac,Pixie and I in Barnes and Noble to read while they got a few "Mama presents":) Every minute was our own, from breakfast to snuggles at night where we all fell asleep in the boys bunk beds.
Completely together.
Whole family days are wonderful.
And I'm lobbying for a dinosaur in our Christmas display next year!
I was just saying to hubby that we need to take the kids for a drive to see Christmas lights soon! So much fun!
Glad you had a fun family day :)
It was a great day for you guys. I'm glad it was filled with a little bit of everything for everyone to enjoy. I enjoyed having spaghetti with my favorite family.
What is the dinosaur carrying? Maybe he just bought a gift! :)
Sounds like a fun day! I love it when my little family gets to spend the whole day together.
Love the dinosaur by the way! lol
today is our day of family togetherness, I am very excited for it. So much so that when the rain was pouring down this morning I was still excited that we were going to be out chopping down our tree. (Thankfully it will stop soon and we can just tromp around in the mud instead)
How nice that you had a day together.
Love the ballet photo of Ivy! :-)
I've been wanting to bundle Shane up in PJs & a coat, fill the travel mugs w/ hot cocoa, and drive around looking at the lights!
I love the photo of Ivy at the barre, that is just so cute!
I don't quite get the wizard Christmas display...but I really like it!
Sounds like you had a wonderful family day!
I love those types of days. WHEN NO ONE FIGHTS THOUGH. : )
We are getting ready to take a ride to see the lights right now. Isn't that the best? Yesterday was the first time I have seen you all together as a family. I was thinking that it was nice to see you with Jeff before I even read this.
I'm with you, Christmas shouldn't make sense. There's a house down the block from ours that has this amazing hodge podge of decorations. There is Santa and snowmen and penguins and 3 nativities and nutcrackers. Even though it doesn't match or follow a discernible theme, it's all the more festive for it.
Went driving last night for Christmas lights. I'd say your area has much better lights than ours!

It was a great day. :)
Sounds like a wonderful day. Entire family days are the very best!!!
We are going to go driving around to see the lights this week.
Chloe has the same tights (Gymboree right?)
They are her absolute favorite (she likes fun patterns and dots!)and she wears them even when they don't match and she looks beautiful!
Too cute. We love looking at the lights too!
Lights are so much fun!
And Ivy is a beautiful ballerina! LOVE her tights!
What a wonderful day together as a family. Beautiful photos too. You are a great mom!
Look at Ivy's polka dot tights! Sooo cute.
And - I LOVE family days. We had one yesterday and it was marvelous.
