Christmas 2011

The girls in their Christmas Dresses... Love Haylees.. and of course my Kaitlyn is thinking she has to look like a Teenager already !!

Mommy making Christmas Eve Dinner in my cute Apron !! Greg had bought a dinner made at the store , but when I went to pick it up it was all uncooked and I still had to come home and make it all including the ham and rolls , the girls love to eat a big meal and fancy dishes.. So it was a fun night !!

I had way to many Christmas Pictures so I just gave a few of the highlights! Haylee got a Real Baby that looks like a newborn and even smells like one to, with a stroller and all the accesories. Kaitlyn got Monster High dolls which has been a huge hit. Than between the two they got wii games, ds games, and board games .. and yes there are 2 things Santa should never have purchased which are Flufflings and Doggie Doo.. so if you have a reqest for them Just say NO!!!! Christmas is such a Fun time of year and I loved seeing their Smiling Faces as the Opened all their Gifts!!! Until Next Year!!!

A Real Tree

After putting away my artificial tree last year.. I knew that I did not want to get it out again after 12 years it was looking pretty sad! So I convinced my husband that I wanted a Real Tree!!! So when I went to work on Saturday .... and I came home from work I had my Tree .. I wanted!!! The only hesitation was the next morning I saw a news story about people having found snakes in their trees so I was nervous for a few days, but no creatures ever came out!!! YaY! It was beautiful and I am so happy I dont have to put away my tree this year.. just throw it out!!!!

Christian our Elf

We started a new tradition this year and had so much fun with our Elf .. .Christian ! For any that haven't heard of The Elf on the Shelf Book, it is such a cute idea for kids. The elf comes to your house and he watches over the kids and goes to Santa every night and reports on how the kids are behaving!! During his time here.. he made snow angels, opened presents, went fishing , and enjoyed lots of our Christmas Decorations! Haylee absolutly loved Him and is going to miss him as he is away for a whole year .. she has woke up at 4 am or early to find him all month long!!!
