New Year's Eve

The girls and I made midnight cookies. Too bad I had the hands wrong! I guess I don't look at anything except digital clocks anymore and had a brain-fart!

Strawberry pop for our toast. The girls have never had pop and they hated it! In fact, we dumped the whole thing out that night. At least it looked pretty!

Andrew really hammed it up with the hat! He'd walk around with it over his eyes to make us laugh. He's quite the clown!

Gianna wanted me to take a picture of her "cookie smile"!

Time for kisses!

The kids' rooms decorated for Christmas

The girls' room...

New My Little Pony ornaments are on the tree - from their advent calendar...

Don't mind the crooked pictures on the wall!

Andrew's little tree...

Our Christmas Eve...

1 day 'til Santa! Yikes!

This morning was the last door to open on the girls' advent calendar. They have been so excited every morning this month, December 26th is going to be a letdown for them!

The big payoff was today - a Ponyville (mini) "Minty" was behind the final door!

Yesterday we made gingerbread cookies. Tonight we decorated them, including special ones for Santa.

Bath time for Santa and Rudolph...Putting out Santa's cookies and orange juice (the girls' choice - Gianna said, "Santa will like it because it's different!")

Just a small sip of Santa's juice, please???

Now off to bed... the work begins...

These stockings are STUFFED! Isabella's loot - note the Mermaid Dora, as requested!

Gianna's loot - includes "Rarity", "Minty", and "Princess Wysteria", also as requested.

Andrew's new toy, a rocker that eventually turns into a tricycle for us to push, then a tricycle he can ride on his own!

I can't wait until the girls see this in the morning!!!MERRY CHRISTMAS ! ! !

Another December activity...

We did the pine cone/peanut butter/birdseed thing for our fine feathered friends...
