Jolly good Christmas fun

All the fun leading up to Christmas, is as much fun as Christmas morning to me. All the memories and time we share warms my heart all year through!

We went to the north view Christmas spectacular for the first time this year. What a great show! I was so impressed with the kids and their showmanship. They did a wonderful job. 

Every year the kids write letters to Santa at school and we submit them to the newspaper. Of course they also go to the North Pole!

Christmas parties help get the kids into the spirit of giving. Annie had her first party ( special guest Santa!) and Aiden and I had a mommy daughter morning :)

We found this at the library! Where’s The Doctor!?!

Poké-party Palooza

Aiden and Annie have birthdays exactly one month apart. While they are young, I plan to take full advantage of this and have joint birthday parties. They love each other so ridiculously much that they are looking forward to sharing all future birthday parties. 

We love making themed food! The buckeye digglets and poke balls were great! The mucks didn't really work. The chocolate was too thick.

Rainy day parties need a little help. Bubbles brighten everyone's day!

 

 

The girls are all about balloons!

 

Piñata fun is a must. We've never bought a piñata before and apparently this is the pull string kind. We didn't realize and spent a lot of time bashing it.

 

Yum. Pokeball cupcakes!

The girls LOVE these calico critters. This is probably the best toy investment ever! 

 

Tea parties are a lost art

Tea parties and the art of tea are sadly deteriorating in the fast forward life we live. I'm so pleased we have friends who share our "fancy on the inside" and bring it to the outside. The girls had a great time.

Aiden had to bring Mykayla, of course!

 

The girls made necklaces and painted window decorations.

 

The lovely table. Well done, Chey!
