The beautiful misery that is school vacation

Each child has found their own magical way of being naughty. To excess, even! Last night, Chris astutely pointed out that our beautiful boys were being so loud that he couldn't see. Trying to watch a holiday movie at the time, I tested the theory and he was correct. My ears were so abused that my vision was indeed compromised. I'm calling it Santa Sensory Overload.

Here's Jacob at his class party on Friday, dressed like the Boston kid in his resort wear. 

And his scary Gingerbread Boy ornament and eating the plate of frosting that his Kindergarten teacher sent home in open aggression for all of the behaviors she's endured in the final stretch of school.

Liam is full of concern for Santas diet and we'll be braving the stores later for strawberries.

And it was only a matter of time before dinosaurs invaded the Christmas village.

Truly, Santa cannot come soon enough. The anticipation is killing me!

Here's two monkeys in a tree.
