Start to Finish

This is what I start with, and this is what they are when finished. 

This set was purchased by a Mom who I thought was giving them to her friends. Turns out she is giving through the year to her daughters friends for Birthdays, cute idea isn't it? They read Friends Forever with a heart charm. 

Another favorite...

Middleton babies, you can get them at Bears, Buddies and Toys. They have a nursery, you pick out which baby you'd like, there are many, and you adopt them. They measure them, weigh them and ask you many questions. After you have completed the process, you have officially adopted them. Its so fun. My girls truly love them. They each had a baby, Isabella a boy, Josh and Sophia a girl, Zoe. For Christmas they wanted them to have a sibling. Isabella wishing for a girl and Sophia wishing for a boy. They each got them. they have buggies, swings and beds. Its so fun to watch them. As I am typing this, the top picture is what I look at in the front room. 

Christmas Pictures

What a wonderful Christmas we had. Family, friends, good weather for travel, it was really nice. Here are a few shots of our Christmas. The big hits in the house were the Lite Brite, they loved/love it. And these sparkle outfits. They got them Christmas morning and didn't take them off all day. I had outfits for them, they went right out the window when they saw these. There was no way I could change them. 

I hope you had a wonderful Holiday xo

Pandora

She may have a little of her mama's rhythm en ha. 

Boy did we have some fun last night. My hubby found Pandora Internet Station on our iphones. Its endless radio and you can pick different stations, different styles, and it will play until you change it. Its so fun. So, last night we typed in, Janet Jackson, oh how I loved her. And we danced and danced and danced. We got a pretty good work out actually. 

Now we are listen'n to Blues Christmas. 

Try it out, you'll love it!

Christmas Cookies

Just a few pictures of our great friends inviting us over this afternoon for a Cookie Decorating Party. Happy Holidays.

It was a party weekend

We had a very busy weekend. Sophia had 3 birthday parties and we hit them all. 2 at Olivia Tea House and 1 at Kidnastics. Boy was it fun. Here are a few from Olivia's Tea House. The kids get to dress up, put on a fashion show and have a tea party. Its really cute. 

Some of my favorite gifts this year...

I found this cute lil' Roxy bag. Not sure if I am going to give it away or keep it :O)

And these girls slippers, aren't the darling, Nordstom, $7.50, wanted to by them all.

1 White & 1 Green

This is one of my favorite times of year in our home. Everything is decorated, everywhere you go. Its fun. We have 2 trees again this year. One traditional green tree that is decorated with fun treats, sparkles, glass ornaments and more. The girls and Daddy decorated it. Its so wonderful light up at night. 

Then we have a white tree in the kitchen/eating area. I bought it at a thrift store last year. It is up all year. The decorations change with the seasons. Last night my hubby and I went to an Ugly Christmas Sweater party and came home to it decorated in the sweetest treats. In all my favorite colors. OH HOW I LOVE IT. Thanks Mom, your the best! And Aunt Geri for the felt treats! I just want to stare at them, they are so yummy looking.
