christmas 2015

gee…found this poem a couple days too late ;-) haha!!

christmas morning!

sadly our only attempt at a christmas photo :-(
better luck next year...

we had a great christmas!

And we are so blessed to be able to spend it with friends and family and very fortunate and grateful to be able to have presents under our tree! 

wishing you all the best of love, health & joy in 2016!

holiday season 2015

I didn't get these up before Christmas, but here are bits and pieces of what our fun (and busy) December looked like.

our elves "holly" & "jolly" arrived! trouble makers!
skye tried to put them in drawers or under her pillow at bedtime so they wouldn't get into trouble as much ;-)
but she was so excited in the morning to go see what they had gotten into

our selfie at the walk-in clinic -
for a non-stop hacking cough for about 2 months now

our first year with a real tree -
that skye picked out. The kids were really excited.

peek-a-boo

2nd annual breakfast with Santa at the Smith's house -
Skye, Emily & Sofia waiting in anticipation

can't get off Santa's knee fast enough

a little shy, but not too bad

skye practicing her numbers.
she kept saying it was taking "too long" for
Christmas to get here.

ugly sweater party!

LOVE how my decoupage ornaments turned out

Airdrie festival of lights - with friends.

A little bit chilly, but not too bad. The kids LOVED it and didn't want to go home at 9pm.

choo choo train ride around the lights

christmas dinner and early presents - fun!  

skye & mommy crafting "snowman" jars for treats

turned out so cute!

merry christmas
