Cans, Cookies, and Parties...

Just a catch up from the past two weeks...

The girls getting "cans for comments"...

Making cookies...I would have never finished without the help of my younger sister...thank goodness for snow days...

Christmas with Grandpa and Grandma (they aren't going to be here for Christmas this year...they are waiting to come when the baby arrives...so we celebrated a little early). We had a delicious dinner...bacon wrapped steaks (sorry to any vegan friends out there!), salad, "homemade" bread, sweet potatoes and ice cream for dessert. Of course the girls didn't get steak (they wouldn't have eaten it anyways) they had chicken nuggets and mac n cheese; what kid wouldn't like that dinner!



Sibling Christmas...what we call it at least. It is the one day set aside that we ALL try our best to make it to celebrate Christmas. It was an absolute blast this year. We started a bit earlier than normal and the afternoon and evening were filled with laughter, good food and lots of love. There were too many pictures to pick through and post, so just a few for you...


I love this picture...Cakes is very anxious to open presents...we still had to eat...but she had hers all picked out...the BIG BOX!
