Willard Christmas

We celebrated Christmas in Willard with all the Bells the weekend before Christmas.  I was fortunate enough to get Friday off at work, so we got an extra day to spend with Grandma Bell.  That gave us a little time to get some crafting in, and we made cute little Santa ornaments (the idea courtesy of Pinterest of course!) and we got to enjoy the customary Springfield style cashew chicken that everyone from that area is obsessed with. 
Saturday instead of doing breakfast like we have in the past, we did lunch at Incredible Pizza.  And it was incredible :)  Brady was about to fall asleep in his food at first because we didn't get there until what should have been the start of his nap time, but he perked up pretty quickly with all the hot dogs, macaroni, pizza, and ice cream he could eat.  Then he got to ride some of the kiddie rides and play a few games.  He loved it, but unfortunately it really messed with is routine and that made for one grumpy boy when it came time to open presents after dinner.  I'd like to say that the grumpiness is the reason for my lack of pictures from the weekend, but that would only be the partial truth.  I forgot to charge the camera battery before we left and didn't bring the charger.  Once everyone else updates their blogs I will probably steal some from them :)  Brady had so much fun, but was definitely worn out by the time we got home.  He loved baby Makinley.  This is the only picture we got (and is not great quality).  It's not so easy to see, but he put his arm around her and then decided he wanted to "hold" her.  Grandma Bell is so lucky to have so many cute grandkids!  Stay tuned for the other Christmas posts.
