Kentucky Part One

Christmas in Kentucky was as fun as ever. Luckily, I had my camera handy for more than one cute moment. A nearby petting zoo kept us all entertained. Above, a dancing Jaxon.

Lucy teaches Shea how to feed a reindeer. This was an absolute dream come true for Shea, who sang (or forced someone else to sing) Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer at least 350 times over the holidays.

Aunt Kim was gracious enough to share her musical instruments with all the kiddos and we were lucky enough to hear the boys' version of Star Wars: The Intergalactic Christmas Carol
