Playing at the Mall

A Trip to the Firehouse!

We took a trip to the Fire Station with our play group yesterday.  The kids had a great time learning about the firetruck and checking out all of the gadgets.  Of course, it was all about the accessories for my girls as their favorite part was the hat they received from the firemen!

 Can you see poor Lilly's fat lip?

Here Comes Santa Claus

This Saturday we had a very special guest at our house: Santa! He came over to read a couple books, sing, and talk to the kids.  Everyone had a wonderful time, it was a great start to the Christmas season!

Thank You Grandma Elsa!

Our beautiful Thanksgiving centerpiece given to us by Grandma Elsa, and the tablecloth underneath was one of hers too that was handed down to me.  It looked great!

We love our GG!

We had a great visit with GG.  The weather was perfect except for one day she was here, so we went to the zoo and all of our favorite parks.  Sadly, I did not have any battery left when I took the camera out at the zoo, but the last picture of the girls and GG makes up for it! Love you GG!

O' Christmas Tree!

Peter took Abbey to pick out a tree the day after Thanksgiving since I had a decorating bug.  Abbey picked out what might have been the biggest tree on the lot! It's huge! I think it might be our prettiest tree to date, and it looks great in the sunroom.  Now I am just hoping it doesn't die before Christmas!
