Holiday Fun...

I just LOVE this time of year. It is so much fun to see the Christmas season through the eyes of a child and I feel so lucky to have two precious girls to share it with! As a second grade teacher it is exhausting with all the excitement in the air, but who else gets to go to work and make crafts, hear stories of mischievous elves and listen to children sing holiday songs! At our house we jumped into the holiday season the day after Thanksgiving, Grace just couldn't wait to empty the boxes in our garage and see all the things that remind her of this time of year. After decorating the house we headed to the Towne Center to see Santa!

This year went well with Santa - No Tears! Grace asked Santa for an American Doll, she wants Mckenna, the gymnast. Lily asked for "a boy and a girl"....She saw a picture of the Bitty Twins in a magazine and fell in LOVE! She just loves being a mommy.

Grace just couldn't wait to decorate the tree, she just loves looking at each ornament and listening to Christmas music as we put them on. Lily got into this year also and only broke two ornaments in the process.

Getting Excited!

Oh Christmas Tree

Lily loves this Santa and 

carries it around like her baby.

They did a great job with the tree!
