Holiday Happenings...!!


December has been full of fun events even thought it is only the 5th day! Emma got to see Santa this past week...(Ava was asleep in the stroller). Emma was very excited to tell Santa that she loves Cinderella. :) This picture says to me..."Santa...I want it all!!" Oh to be three again.

Santa was very patient with Emma. Emma was able to find out that the little girl's name that Emma is sharing her pacifier with is Baby Jennifer. After Emma fell down a couple of steps early in November...she had to quit the paci cold turkey. We told her that Santa would take her paci and share it with a little baby who needed it more. :)


Tonight was our families 4th Annual Progressive Christmas Dinner. We always look forward to eating yummy food and enjoying each other's holiday decorations.

On Wednesday of this week...Emma's dance class performed for a Christmas party. Instead of having a dance lesson the group met for a performance at the American Legion. Grandma Ruth got to come along too. Emma had a lot of fun. She liked her new Christmas tutu with jingle bells. :)

A couple of Emma's dance teachers...Miss Mesia, Miss Debby and Emma! :)


After Thanksgiving we surprised Emma with tickets to see Playhouse Disney Live at the Civic Center for an afternoon show. Ava got to stay with Berry while we enjoyed the show. Emma really liked the performance.


Beautiful girlies...we love their smiles!! :)

Emma and Ava love to hang out in mommy and daddy's bed for morning cartoons on the weekends. :)

A picture of Emma's lip after she fell down a couple of steps at Aunt Sue's. Her top tooth went through her bottom lip causing to have a fat bottom lip. We soon discovered that her top tooth had been pushed back causing to have a fat top lip too. After two trips to the dentist...we learned that she would be ok. It is likely the tooth may need to come out before it actually falls out. She was such a big girl. We were very proud of her. She loves going to the dentist. Who would have thought! :)

Sisters...! :)

Over the Thanksgiving weekend we enjoyed a full day at the Taylor's. We spent all day Saturday in Alpha...hanging with cousin Leah and the gang. It was such a beautiful day we even took a walk outside. Here is daddy with all three cousins.

Cousin Leah...she has such a fun smile...laughing too!! :)

Joe...Ava...Leah!

Ava...what beautiful blue eyes! :) Just like her daddy's.

Cousin Leah is a movin' and a groovin' these days. She was crawling and pulling up like crazy. It is so fun to see her growing so fast...!

Emma loves to use her "tools" at Papa Taylor's house. She has her own workbench and set of tools to play with.

Emma loves to hold Cousin Leah.

Happy Emma!

All three cousins...lovin' one another! :)

Emma, Uncle Jimmy, and Cousin Leah!
