Let's see, the highlights include...
Jack put the star on the tree - on November 22nd.
The house looks beautiful this year with wreaths and spot lights. Beautiful!
I got to meet up with Courtney (Opdenaker) for lunch.
Black Friday started for me on Thanksgiving night where I picked up a lot on my way to work. Then the girls and I basically went clothes shopping for them at 6 am on Black Friday AM.
Jason got to go to the Seahawks/Eagles game... and survived!
The girls had Katrina and Serenity over for the annual Christmas sleep over. We went to Journey Through Bethlehem and then they made Ugly Christmas Sweaters.
I finally found a stocking for Jimmy, then it was stolen out of my stroller at the mall. Bummer.
Jaylee has gotten better and better at photography!
We made a manger at church then got to use it on Christmas Eve for our Nativity picture.
We saw a lot of toy trains at the library.
American Music Theater with the Liounis clan. And the kids saw The Nutcracker.
We continued our traditions of Gingerbread houses, toffee candy, cookies (which Jack LOVED to make and eat), sneaking out our Christmas gift,
Christmas Eve dinner at Poppop/Nan's with our Nativity cousins picture, cousins gift exchange and hearing Santa's bells before sprinting home. Skyping with all the Stringhams and opening their gift.
Opening gifts at 3:30 this year... only bc we sent the girls back to bed at midnight, 1, 2, 3 and then gave in.
We missed Daddy's big breakfast today bc we were too tired and napped.
Snacking on Pepperoni, cheese and crackers all day.
We had ham/green beans/ & potatoes for dinner, Yummy.
Poor jaylee got her IPod... And it was broken :(
Jennibelle was totally surprised with Taylor Sqift tix
