Christmas Fun

We have had so many fun things this month, however still time to just relax.  A much better balance so far.  With so much going on in our own lives and around the world, we have had many reminders of our blessings and are thankful for each of them.  Lots more reminders to give our precious kiddos some extra hugs and kisses too!

I took the girls to see the Nutcracker with my good friend Kristin and her kids.  They loved it!!


Amazing Gingerbread House display downtown




This girl knows how to make a gingerbread cookie taste good!!

Even I made one this year- they're getting old enough to make their own without so much help!

Even though we tell our kids about St. Nicholas more than Santa, we still like to say hello to him every year when he comes by on the firetruck!  Plus, he hands out chocolate bars instead of candy canes!  :-)
