Christmas in Phoenix!

We were not planning on spending Christmas in Phoenix this year but when we found out everyone would be there for Christmas Eve we had to go. So we quickly packed all of our things, laid out Santa's gifts so they would be there when we got back, and left the next morning. The drive is so long but the kids did really well. We spent a week in Phoenix and were able to visit with all of my siblings, my mom, and even some of Mark's family. It was so nice to be there and so hard to come back.


We could not get Jack to take his eyes off his presents for a couple minutes to get a picture


Ashley also refused to look at the camera

Christmas approaches…

You sure couldn’t miss the fact that it’s almost Christmas at the Hardin House. Mark has had the house decked out since before Thanksgiving, the DVD player is always on with some type of holiday cartoon or movie and Lewis and Jack are more excited than ever for Santa Claus to come.
