Day 14 of CCC... Making up for lost time

Today Sam had some of his best buds over for a Elmo Saves Christmas PJ Party!  I was home with the boys today, so we worked hard to tidy (and untidy) and get ready for our friends to arrive.  It was a hit.  We crafted, played, read books, had a finger food supper, watched Elmo, danced and the list goes on.  It's hard to even imagine what Sam (or myself) would do without these ladies and their babies in our life.  They seem to be the gift that just keeps on giving!

Couple of buddies eatin' cheese!

Payton LOVES crafting

The early birds working on art before the rest of the guests arrive (or wake up!)

Sam LOVES to craft too!

Smith is up and ready to party.

CHEESE!

Apparently Kaysi tells a great Christmas story!

One-handed downward dog

This is where the band first met and when these kiddos are rich and famous, I'll have the proof that it all started in my basement!

Picture Perfect... love these guys

Just a close up of the group shot above... too cute not to zoom in on. 

I love this blooper picture... poor poor Parker!

Parker and her beautiful entourage!

Sam's wonderful part time family!

The lovely Farrell girls ( 2 out 3 anyway, isn't so bad)

Mommy and her monkey!

Entirely captivated by Elmo Saves Christmas... amazing!

Elmo seems just as interested in us!

Here is the mess left behind... slightly different than it would have looked after a party 5 years ago, but I wouldn't trade it for the world.
