We Love Christmas!







Being able to spend time with family is the best way to spend Christmas. We didn't get to spend nearly as much time with family but what we did was perfect. Chaos everywhere and all the kids really having the time of their lives. Grandma made nightgowns for all the girls and it was the same pattern she used when I was Halli's age and had a nightgown just the same! I'm sure each of the kids got all they had hoped for and more. I have to admit my favorite part of this Christmas season was when Halli and Syd got to pick out their gifts for one another. We went to Hobby Lobby and each of the girls went down seperate isles and then hid their gifts behind their backs so the other couldn't see. Halli picked a sparkly, pink sun visor and Dora coloring book for Syd because she is a lover of sparkly, pink and of course Dora! Syd picked out a box that she painted to look like a watermelon and cut a hole in the top to be her new piggy bank. Halli has been trying to do everything she can to earn money and her first piggy bank was full and no more would fit...Syd wanted to make sure that she would have enough room to save all the money she wanted to. I am blessed to have the most loving, and thoughtful girls. I am also blessed to have a great family who have a love and support for me that is never ending.
