December update

Well I thought I would take a break from the Disney updates to catch up on the everyday goings ons of our life. December was very busy for us. First Luke moved his office the first weekend of December. It is nice, but it would have been nice for the company to plan the move a little better, he has been working almost seven days a week since to get all settled in. Also the first weekend of December was our Christmas party. Of course Ella needed to dress for the occasion.

It was a very nice afternoon. I saw some friends that I have not seen in a while. It is always good to have a chance to catch up.

Than it was time to get a tree. Ella wanted to go to the woods and get one, so off we go. We find the perfect tree now Luke needs to cut it down.

Yes, Luke I know the most flattering picture. No need to thank me.

Next was to decorate. Ella did it all by herself. We had the most beautiful tree. Princess thought the tree belonged to her. She did not even like us to water it. This weekend when it comes down she will be very sad.











Ella's school hosted a gingerbread making night. Ella and I went we had a great time.













Then it was time for the Christmas concert. This year it went very well. She sang, and did not hit the person next to her. Successful in my eyes.













Now on the Christmas. Christmas eve we were home. Ella had received some reindeer dust that needed to be sprinkled on the front lawn. We did that and then opened up our one present then were off to bed so that the big guy could come.









Christmas morning was as crazy as expected with a four year old. Of course Ella received everything on her Christmas list. Her big present was a doll house from Mommy and Daddy made by Grandma Fran. Thanks again Mom for saving our butts.


Then it was off to my Mom's for Christmas. Again Ella was left desiring nothing. Ella's favorite one from there was a V-Tech game for ABC's she also received a baby doll kit with everything that Mommy and Daddy will have for the baby. That way she can be just like us. All in all it was a wonderful holiday.

Hope you all had a great one too. I can not wait until next year what a change that will be for us, a five year old and a seven month old. I can not wait.

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!
