My FAVORITE Time of Year

I love, love, love this time of year.  WE celebrate the birth of Jesus, count down until the big day, do crafts, sing songs, decorate the tree, enjoy Christmas parties, see family and on and on.  It's just so much fun!  (The pics are a bit out of order.)

 Weston decorated the tree with the Styrofoam from all the boxes we unpacked.

 A girl and her purse

 Macie had a snow day which turned out to be just an extra fun day for us.  We got a little Christmas tree to go between their rooms to put all their special ornaments that they make and ones that are just for them on.

 I forgot to put pictures or videos of this big girl walking.  She has been walking since Nov. 15th.  Kinsley gets better and better at it each day/  However, she did take a tumble walking on the street and skinned her mouth, nose, and forehead.  I think she is a bit clumsy when she has the big coat on.

 Decorating cupcakes

 We had a Christmas event to go with for Zack's work.  Santa was there.  No one was too anxious to sit on his lap.

 When the lady asked what Weston wanted he said, "A spider."  I think he was thinking back to the first time he got his face painted at Halloween.  The sweet lady was trying to get him to do a gingerbread man like his shirt but at least she made him green.

 Macie just wanted to match her clothes.

 And sometimes moments like this my heart just swells with LOVE and it overwhelms me with how much.

 Playing with her brother...this was before the fall.

These next few are of us decorating...it was just priceless.  Every ornament was the kids favorite, so special or just awesome.  I loved listening to the kids talk as they decorated.  We did decorate in November but we had to get our tree up before we left for Texas and so we would have it ready for our neighborhood party.
