Pre Christmas Fun...

You two are at such a fun age and are LOVING every minute of the holiday's!  Well...most of the fun that the holiday's bring:)  Here is a look into a few of the "Joys of the season"  

Sydney you loved Santa this year!  You were so excited to tell him what you wanted for Christmas!  Jewelry and a snow globe to be exact!  When you climbed off santa's lap you were so worried that you forgot to tell santa you wanted a snow globe.  SO we let Mrs. Clause know...

Remember how I said "most of the holiday fun".  Well, Dane you were not quite sure about this big man in red!

Then it was off to the Santa Train!  Round two of Santa this year.  Dane you made BIG improvements from the previous week and sat on Santa's lap with no problem!  

We had a great time riding the BIG train to see Santa with Chelci, Brandon and Stella!

The countdown to Christmas was a real treat with our chocolate advent calendar with bible verses we read each morning and our calendar to show us we were getting closer to the BIG day!

Gingerbread House making is always a must for the Holiday's!  You two LOVED every second of making your beautiful candy house.  

Another new tradition that we got from Aunt Sarah is the gum drop tree!  It is the cutest thing ever and SO much fun to make!

Dane your new cheesy grin!  Now when we say smile you say "CHEESE" and closes your eyes!  Too cute!

And I will end with one of the favorite traditions of the season Elf on the Shelf!  The kids LOVED waking up every morning to see where the elf had landed that morning.  He kept a good eye out on you both to see if you had been naughty or nice so he could report back to Santa.  You maned elf "Emily"!
