As much as we are watching our children to see what they do with thier lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours.

Countdown to Christmas

Here is a recap of the days leading up to Christmas....

Warm weather greeted us in December
Mission Overnight Curls
Sophia enjoying Scouts
Excited to leave the house to visit Santa
Santa 2015
Isabella asked Santa for a metal detector and a telescope.  Sophia asked for a real live baby and a photo of her family.  After visiting Santa we rode the mini train around the mall.



Bunco Holiday Party
Excited our tree has lights on it!
Kissy face!
Christmas Cuties
In the land of lipstick and shimmer...
Girl Scout cookie decorating
Isabella helped Sophia's troop with cookies

On Christmas eve this year we received a letter from our elves Lacey and Dorothy.  The letter said the girls could hold the elves for a few minutes and it would not affect their magic. The girls enjoyed holding them and saying goodbye till next year. 




Our December was a very busy one.  I did not have time to bake any cookies, other than the store bought break and bake cookies for Santa we cooked on Christmas eve.  Working during the holidays was a challenge for all but we made the best of it.  I may have missed doing a few traditions with our family but I did not miss out on quality time with my family.  Time with my family is the best gift of all.
