We had a lot of fun getting in the holiday spirit this year, starting with decorating! Helping with Dallie and Mallie's tree...
Then our house! Well, Nick and I do this...
The kids do this...They were so excited to have colored lights on Grandma's white tree she passed down to them. They each have their own set of ornament collections but they also put mine and Nick's childhood ornaments (rocking horses and sports) on this tree as well.
Waking up to surprises from Saint Nick (and yes elves Wassel, Holly, and Tinsel were back in our house for more mischief!)
Not buying St. Nick...
Visiting the North Park trains with play group...
Holiday party and night out downtown...
Making chocolate chip, peanut butter, and snicker doodle cookies to give to our teachers and co-workers...
Liam's Winter Party at school. I love being room mom and getting to be a part of these special days. Bryn got to be an honorary kindergartener :)
Book exchange with classmates...
Visiting the Bass Pro Christmas display with Grandpa and Grandma...
Liam had his Winter Piano Recital...
Liam also started teaching Bryn to play and she now practices daily on her own just like Liam. She can't wait to take lessons too...
Finally, we celebrated with playgroup during our traditional Santa picture! Love this pic for so many reasons...wonderful childhood friends, amazing moms, screaming babies...and of course Liam with his arm around EK :)
