Christmas Eve

After stops at Con and Lindsey's and Uncle John and Aunt Carol's Christmas Eve parties, we headed home so the girls could open their traditional Christmas Eve presents. They waited all day for this moment even though they knew it would be pajamas! 

Having a Cool Yule

Sister Shirts

I decided to make the girls shirts using iron on transfers instead of buying them from Etsy. They were way cheaper to make and turned out super cute. Plus I wanted to customize Erin's to say medium sister since that's what she calls herself. They are getting so excited for their baby sister's arrival!

Snowing

It is snowing. Not a lot, but it's there. The sight of snow sent the kids into a 20 minute version of Jingle Bells complete with piano. I think they may be excited for winter ;)

The Great Tree Hunt

  

 

 

 

We headed to the tree farm on a warm Sunday. There was a little mud but no snow! We headed to a new area of the farm and found a tree relatively quickly. It's a little smaller than we usually pick out but was very full and straight. The girls played tag while George cut the tree down and then we headed up the steeper than it looked when you're 8 months pregnant hill. The girls and I decorated the tree after dinner and so far, the cats are leaving it mostly alone. We also took the new camcorder to the tree farm to test it out. The video below is several clips I pieced together using the software that came with the camera.
