Santa made a surprise visit to this years staff/family brunch at my work. He is one of our customers and Santa at heart. The sweetest Santa ever. I truly believe that he enjoys it more than the children. At least more than Jackson.

Lunch view
We met Craig for lunch today at Chambers Bay. This is the horrible view we had to look at as we ate.
Sucks to be us.
Chaos on lanes 1-4
Just as the house was coming down from a Christmas high, we joined two other families and hit the lanes! Literally. These kids literally throw the bowling ball. I'm not sure how the lanes didn't crumble. 9 kids, 6 adults, 3 pizzas, 1 plate of fries and 1 of nasty nachos = 4 games with lots of laughs.
Santa!
Craig and I went to a Christmas party at some friends house.
Little did we know Santa would be there!
And just like that......
Another season of basketball has come to an end. 
*disclaimer, per Avary. We were Guest. ;)
Our little, but fierce Goalie.
Griffen has found his position in soccer. He absolutely loves to play goalie. And he is GOOD! This child has no fear. He's such a stud.

Sweet Nanas Birthday Celebration and Papas Celebration of Life
Almost all the Bartletts were able to get together to help Nana celebrate her birthday and also help her celebrate Papas life.
Uncle Dan, cousin Ryan (Phils son), my dad and Nana.
I mean really! She's just the cutest thing ever.
Dinner with Kyle a.k.a. Carl.
He loves it when we call him Carl.
Nana wanted a selfie.
Nana got a selfie.
Merry Christmas, 2014
I don't want to make it seem like historically Christmas morning in our house is a bit kookoo, but historically Christmas morning in our house is a bit kookoo. Until this year. I am not sure what happened, but I'd like to say it was a Christmas Miracle. We had an amazing morning. And, it didn't even start until the kids woke up.
About 8:00!
What, you say?!
Yup!
It was marvelous darling, just marvelous.
Santa brought G a 12 pack of Fanta.
Poor child tries to order Fanta at every restaurant we go to and they never have it.
Now, he has 12.
hint, hint.
On the hunt for a Christmas card.
Photo shoot, November 2014.
Sure, they look photogenic. They lie.
This was a crazy a** 20 minutes.
But, luckily our photographer was up for a challenge.
Head band is cute, right?!
The bangs that she cut during class are not.
Now, THIS IS MORE LIKE IT!
"Laugh like you just made fun of one another"
Monster Dash!
A 5K Monster Dash to celebrate Halloween. It sounded like fun. And it was. It was also freezing cold, wet and tornado like. These are just a few of the things that helped me get through it.
You had to be in costume.
G was a punk skate board dude.
Avary was a black cat.
Max, Griff and Mo.
Good buds.
Chloe, MacKenna and G and A.
MacKenna, Avary and Chloe. You can't even believe how cold it was. They were such good sports.
Griffen crossing the finish line!!
And this one too.
This was one of those things that we can say 'we've done that'.
And NEVER do it again.
So, funny part to this night. Jackson stayed home while the four of us went to the race. Because of the weather, the power went out. When the power goes out, it gets dark in our neighborhood. WAY DARK! We came home and found Jackson in his bed, with the covers over his head, hiding from whatever the dark brings. Silly boy.
