Christmas 2012

It was a success! By 8:30 last night i was one grouchy mama but it was all worth it! I cooked and entertained over 26 people. The morning started out great the kids had so much fun finding out what santa brought and Kate loves her trampoline. I think this will come in handy if we are really getting a blizzard and the kids need to get some energy. Brooklyn loved her first Christmas. She of course just took it all in. Later in the evening she was talking away then had a meltdown because she was so tired. I think I had mine shortly after!!!

Christmas Eve 2012

Tis the season

My father in law hired a photographer to come to our house to take pictures of his 4 kids and all the grandkids. We took some shots before everyone arrived. Before the kids fell apart haha!

Christmas Cheer ~ Polar express and breakfast with Santa

The tree is complete!

Sweet Brookie

She has been fighting a cold and was playing quietly in her exersaucer. I walked over to check on her and found her like this. Too precious for words....

Admiring Santa from afar.....

She eventually got up the courage to go talk to him. Santa made her day by giving her a candy cane.

Finding the perfect tree!
