Christmas Season 2011 has begun!

The Christmas season is here & decorating has begun...
Each year, the girls each get at least 2 new ornaments. 1 ornament is a specific theme for each of them. They also get an ornament that represents their year or them at this stage of their life.

Gracie's theme is stocking shaped ornaments. Her ornament to represent her year this year is a pair of "Ugg" boots!
Katie's theme ornament is gingerbread ornaments. Her ornament to represent her year this year is a robot...because of her Halloween costume!

Ellie's theme ornament is bells because we sometimes call her "Ellie Belles." Her ornaments to represent her year is a big Hello Kitty because she loves "Hollow Kittycat!"
Today, she & I went to 'Cocoa & Crafts' at church. Cute crafts & lots of fun with friends.
Trying to get these 2 to be still for a picture is quite the task!
Making her glitter snowflake...
Handprint Santa...
Candy Cane reindeer...
cutting the pieces to a memory game...

Such fun for my sweet 3 year old! After this, we went to Katie's school to read to her class. We read "Moosletoe," "Santa's Stuck," and "Snowmen at Christmas." We also took a trip to the Book Fair!

Tomorrow is Breakfast with Santa at school....

And no, Greg and I have not separated. I'm trying to figure out how to get my google account to sign in with my married name.
