Getting ready for Christmas!!!


Hello Blog! I don't usually go half a month without posting, but as you all know, December is just crazy....And when it's not crazy, I would rather soak it all in with the family. I LOVE this time of year. (as I know I have said several times before) Watching Lila enjoy it all for the first time makes it even sweeter:) Here are a few pics from the past couple of weeks.

Even though our blood doesn't run green and gold, we went and enjoyed the Baylor Christmas tree lighting. It was SOOO cold that night that we left shortly after arriving. Lila did enjoy seeing the live nativity! Is it bad that all the kids were interested in the camels and didn't pay attention to baby Jesus?

We took a quick family shot outside my parents house and called it out Christmas card?

We have literally shopped til we dropped!

We have enjoyed my parents as babysitters way more than they probably would like:) Of all the toys they have, bees in the box is the most fun!!

We went to meet Santa! Sorry the pic is so fuzzy, but couldn't scan it and this was the best picture of a picture I could get. The original isn't that clear either:( This was the only shot before she started crying! I don't really blame her. He is a big, hairy man in a bright red outfit that she doesn't know! She couldn't believe I handed her over to him. Ohh the "How could you" face I got when it was over.

Looking forward to another crazy week with lots of Christmas fun to do:)

I feel you on the crazy and the blog denial I am WAY backed up on posts and just haven't had the energy at the end of the day to care much!

Love your pictures from this season so far. LOVED the Christmas card pick - such a beautiful family - and I'm not gonna lie I'm proud the dress made the cut.

Can't wait for next week when we can be crazy busy together!!

Love you.
