The stockings were hung...

Last year I made stockings for our family but Hunter didnt get one. This year I finally made his and now our family is complete! I think it turned out pretty cute, especially since I didnt have a pattern for a Christmas Doggie and had to make it up on my own!
I know you are all impressed....eat your heart out Holly! (If you don't know Holly, she is my ultra talented Sis-in-law.... I only wish I could have a portion of her creativity!)

Can I eat this?


Last night we decorated our Gingerbread House that I bought about a month ago and we just haven't had time to do it. I'm sortof glad that there are only 2 days till Christmas, because even in the last 12 hours (10 of which Brielle was asleep) she has asked me probably 100 times, "Can I eat this?". She is a little obsesseed with candy!

All Aboard!


Monday was Katie's Polar Express class party. I LOVE being the room mom so that I am always there for all the fun parties! The kids were so cute all dressed in their pajamas.

Temple Square

After the Classic we went back to my Mom's for a yummy dinner with everyone and then went to Temple Square to see the lights. It was pretty cold and foggy but we still enjoyed it. The fog actually made the lights look pretty!


Classic


Today we got together with the Brownings for some Christmas fun. Well actually the day started much earlier for us because we went up to my Mom's to help her with the tile in her basement for the 2nd Saturday in a row. Greg has been working very hard to try and get it done for when my Sister comes into town this week. He got all of the shower finished today but still has the floor to do. Then we met Alan's family at the Classic Skating rink. Brielle is a maniac on her scooter. She was going as fast as possible and had no regard for others around her. I was afraid to watch her and she LOVED the loud music and lights.
Katie would much rather sit and hold Oakley for the entire time. She only went around the rink once that I saw. But she had fun!
Brielle got in trouble because she had an "accident" in her pants (when is this going to stop???) So she was told she had to sit out and not use her scooter. This is the look I got! That little stinker! Just a side note too.. she's sitting just like I always did when I was little in this picture. I don't know many people that have legs that bend like this, but it was so comfortable for me to sit like this when I was little and truth be told I think I can still do it although my knees start to hurt after a minute =)
We also played in the bounce area for a while. We really had a fun time!

Piano Recital

Katie had her piano recital tonight. She did really well, we are so proud of her! I hope she will continue to enjoy developing her talents *and that we can keep affording it! =)
I really like the Harmony Road program, Katie has learned a lot about music and enjoys singing and playing piano.

Christmas Memories Dance Recital



Tonight was the girls recital for C&C Ballet. They both did so GREAT! I'm so proud of them both and I think they are the cutest darn girls EVER!!!


These pictures makes me laugh and I wanted to post them even though they turned out kind of blurry. This shows the personality of the girls to a tea!
