Santa!

The boys visited Santa last week!  They loved looking at his workshop while we waited in line.  There were elves on the roof as well as one sticking out feet-first from a window.  Corbin was a little obsessed with the "stuck elf".  When they first sat on Santa's lap, Corbin proceeded to look at him and tell him "The elf is stuck!".  Quinn was fairly quiet and wasn't quite sure what to do.  It made for some funny pictures that I'm sure they'll laugh at some day!

Quinn was watching the kids in line and Corbin was, well, holding his candy cane not sure what to do!

Deck the halls!

The Christmas Season is definitely in full swing at the Brunin house! Corbin and Quinn are loving it! The three most requested Christmas carols are...Silent Night, Jingle Bells and Rudolph. The boys are getting pretty good at singing the tunes themselves!

The poor Christmas tree is not holding up so well this year. Quinn and Corbin enjoy touching the lights, talking about the ornaments, pointing out the Jayhawks and generally just messing with it! We did put "Baby Jesus" and the nativity up high...so no injuries to report there. :)

Posing by the tree...it's difficult to get a good pic with both silly boys being still!


Here are the stockings....

Time flies...

Wow - time does fly when you're having fun! Corbin and Quinn have been having a great fall. They loved the pumpkin patch, playing outside, and dressing up for Halloween. Corbin dressed up as the Cowardly Lion and Quinn was the Scarecrow. Once they understood the whole saying "trick or treat" and getting candy thing - they thought it was great! On Halloween night they handed out treats at home and loved doing that as well.

Both boys are talking a mile a minute and amazing Mom and Dad every day. They say some of the funniest things! The conversations they have with each other are some of the funniest...especially when they are in bed, supposedly going to sleep. Corbin usually does the "ABCs" and Quinn chimes in when he's not talking to their dog, Annie.

The boys have been helping Mom and Dad with Christmas decorations. This time of year has been a lot of fun so far! Corbin and Quinn are really enjoying everything this time of year brings…they love to point out all of the Christmas lights we see, telling us the colors, and they are getting into the Christmas music too. Hopefully Dad and Mom will stay on the ball and get pics of all of the holiday hub-bub posted soon! Below are pics from Halloween and Corbin and Quinn enjoying the last of the nice weather (playing with trucks and tractors, of course!). The blog isn't cooperating tonight…so hopefully more pics will be loaded soon.
