More Christmas

I love Christmas. This year was extra fun because the girls were so excited. I have found that most things have taken on more meaning to me as I get to experience them through the eyes of my children. We had a super fun Christmas.
On Christmas morning the girls slept in until about 8:30 and then we heard them stirring. We could hear Breanne shouting " Madi he came, Santa came." the next thing I heard were little feet running through the house to our room. and then the fun began. Breanne started jumping up and down " He came, he came, Wahoo, he came ." I couldn't believe How excited she was.
Breanne and Madison wanted Baby Dolls and strollers. They loved their gifts.

Dave and his trusty knife. I don't know how we would ever open any gifts with out it!!


Even our little Jaycee loved opening gifts. She figured out her own method as you can see.



Good Times! and Great Memories!




Christmas, Christmas Christmas!!!!




While I'm Blogging I might as well Share with you some of our christmas fun!!
These wonderful pics started out as a fun Idea. We love getting christmas cards from everyone and seeing their cute families. We thought that it would be great to send out our christmas cards also.That's what these pictures were for. Well lets just say this is the first time these pics have made it past the file I stuck them in. Maybe next year we'll do better.

The need to craft

Do you ever just feel the need to be crafty? Some times I do.... actually that happens a lot but there is a problem I don't have the slightest idea what to make. Any way my crafting/Tutu craze started in October after I had seen a tutu that my friend heather had made. This craze consumed me through December. I decided to make Tutus for my girls and niece not to mention I decided to learn how to make fairy wings. After the tutu experience I went on to Aprons and Hair bows. And then I decided I could cater and decorate for my sisters wedding in January (That's a whole new blog in and of it's self). Need less to say I think I have filled my need to craft at least for the time being. I must say though I love people who have the creative juices flowing from every thought. I often wish and want for that talent and ability........hey you never know.


A new Addition


Some of you may think I am falling behind in the blogging area......Well I am!! But with good reason I feel like so much has been happening in our little Family not to mention the holidays. For starters we added a new family member. In November we got a puppy. Puppies are lots of work. We love him though. His name is Rowdy and he is a German short hair Pointer.
The girls adore him and as you can see he loves them. He has been good for our Family.
at the beginning of December however he jumped out of Dave's truck and broke his leg. We weren't sure if it was going to be fixable but with a little surgery, a nice size vet bill, and some prayers he's doing well.
