Christmas

Oh Christmas is over HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

I know I know I'm slow here are a few things we did for Christmas fun.

We decorated a princess gingerbread house. I found this at smith's and the girls just loved it. It's really cute.!

We found a Purple tree to decorate for the girls room. Purple and pink with everything princess.

SNOW!! We played in the snow. The first day it snowed the girls were out making a snowman. Gary loved playing in the snow with them. He was helping them build a snow fort and Kara put a bucket of snow on and said, "Wow it's a miracle." It was a fun day out in the snow. We decorated our house and Christmas tree. Kara had fun this year putting all the ornaments on the bottom of the tree. She also wanted to keep all the candy canes for herself. Oh yea, this year we made Kara hang the lights on our house.


We had lots of fun parties and enjoyed our time at home together. We saw Santa at grandma Chewey's house and Kara loved him. She sat right by his feet and kept saying "Santa, Santa, Hi Santa." We were able to get some good shots for a Christmas card, NOT!! It turned out funny though. This is how our family is, Ryleigh Jo being silly, Shandee being happy, Kara screaming because she didn't get her way, Gary screaming at the kids, and mom, just smile and pretend our family is normal.

Sorry this is such a long post, but it is a month Worth's of memories. It was a good month. It was a busy month, but it was fun.
