Christmas in our Home

Decorating for Christmas is one of my most favorite things to do....  Everywhere you look, there are white lights, simple white decorations, greenery and snowflakes

This is our living room Christmas Tree.  Sparkly and Pretty.

This little white box of drawers is our Advent Calendar.  Every drawer gets filled with little candies and a verse for each day.

Our family room is probably my favorite room in the house around Christmas time.  

Woodsy, Rustic and Easy.

The family room is the home of our Family Christmas Tree.  Ornaments handmade by our kiddos are my favorites!

Wyatt's first Christmas  :)

It is December 29th and our home is still fully decorated and the white lights are still on.  We're not quite ready to take it all down yet so we'll keep enjoying it.  :)

Christmas Eve

Another excellent Christmas Eve program was done at our church...   first up were the wee ones.

Sadie and Audrey

The big kids put on a great program

Landon - blue plaid shirt

Wyatt - teal plaid shirt

After the program, we headed to mom and dad's for dessert with the kiddos' two great grandpas.  Then back home for new pajamas, ornaments, setting out milk and cookies and scattering reindeer food.

It was so cold when the kiddos went out to scatter the reindeer food...  they didn't waste any time and then ran right back into the house to warm up.

After the kids were fast asleep, D and I dug in to finally start wrapping all the gifts..  it was a loooong night but we had a good time power-wrapping and watching TV!  :)

Did you....?

Did you notice the change?  :)

best kiddos ever!

Party for #5

Audrey's Party Cake!

We ended up doing her party in the studio..  Besides all the trips back and forth from the house, it worked out really well!

Audrey insisted everyone had to have a purple straw 

Placing the candles right where she wants them

As much as she loves entertaining, this girlie didn't like the attention on her while we sang Happy Birthday.  :)

Happy Birthday, Sweet Girl!   We love you so much!
