This Years Card

My genious friend Emily had this all set up at her son's birthday party. So we stole the picture and had a friend put together this card. Easiest card ever. Merry Christmas everyone.

Real Family Christmas Party

Every year Dave's work hosts a family Christmas party. We get to see Santa and this year Ms. Claus. They have a professional photographer there to capture the memories. And then all the kids get an early present from Santa. We enjoyed cookies and hot chocolate. The kids love going to Dave's office and of course Santa. This year we braved dinner at Bucca De Beppos with the kids and Dave's marketing department. That probably wont happen next year. Because as usual the kids weren't on their best behavior.

Karla Has Arrived

My sister gets to visit every winter while her husband is deployed. We get to have her over a month this time. And it is extra fun because it is all over the holidays. This year we got to meet cute Sienna for the first time.

My cute mom and dad all ready to go to his work party. 

It is a general consensus that this is the cutest baby ever. She is adorable plus so smiley.

The kids have all taken a liking to her especially Leah. She had a little running nose and was worried about getting Sienna sick so she put on the rubber gloves to hold her. It has made me even more excited for our babies arrival to see how good the kids are with Sienna.

A good shot of Nana with all her grand kids.

Christmas Happenings

We made the annual Gingerbread houses. It made it a few days without being eaten.  

Leah had a performance at Festival of Trees for her theater group. Her skirt got loose and she nearly lost it I was worried sick that it would fall down. And she would be traumatized. But lucky for us it made it through the performance. And was reinforced and pinned for the next one.

Waiting for Leah to come out. I love this one of Dave and Eva. 

And Mr who thought the window would be the perfect place to pose.
