Santa

I took the girls to meet Santa while Joe was out west snowmobiling.  

Ashlyn sat right on his lap and told him everything she wanted - pink ice skates, pink binoculars, pink scooter.... Kaelyn on the other hand would not get close to him. 

I had to sit with her but she still wouldn't talk!  

 

Merry Christmas!

 

Cookie Monster!

Reindeer sugar cookie....

She only likes to lick the frosting....
 

Happy Girl!
 

The girls....

Girls Night!
We watched Brave for the first time while daddy was out west snowmobiling.
They loved this movie and they loved their new popcorn bowls!
 

Our Silly Elf Jingle

Jingle has been a busy little elf.
I'm glad that he's not one of those naughty elves... he just silly!
The girls just LOVE looking for him each morning. It's so much fun!

Getting into all the flower clips and hair bows in the bathroom
 

 

The girls were painting the day before so I guess
Jingle wanted to do a little painting of himself.
 

Baked cookies and decorated them with the girls initials... silly Jingle!

Sledding

First Snow!

The girls wanted to go outside as soon as they woke up and saw all the snow this morning! So we dug out all of our snow gear and headed outside.  It was perfect snow for making snowmen... or as we call them - snowgirls :)



This is what you do when you don't have any hills for sledding in your yard....
get out the Ranger and get pulled around by daddy!

 

 

Then Kaelyn wanted to join in on the fun
 

 

Of course we had to make snowgirls.
The snow was so sticky that it was picking up all the leaves, grass and dirt.
We made two; snowgirl Kaelyn & snowgirl Ashlyn (who is pictured behind daddy)
Sorry, no picture of Kaelyn's snowgirl, my camera was getting too wet from all the snow.

Decorating the tree

We got out our tree and started decorating the house for Christmas the day after Thanksgiving.  We had Christmas music on and Ashlyn put on her pretty red holiday dress for the special occasion.

The girls were most excited about the singing stuffed animals... thankfully it only took a week for the initial excitement of having them sing over and over and over (get the idea?) to wear off... now it's only a couple times a day.

 

We left the ornaments just where the girls put them. They had me put a few up high but the majority are in the middle and bottom. Love it!
 

 

 

 

Happy St. Nick's Day!

St. Nick dropped off new pajamas for the girls to wear for the holidays.  They couldn't wait to get out of the bath and put on their adorable new pj's!

  

Show me your favorite ornament....

Happy Holidays!
