Twas the Week Before Christmas......

 

One day the girls were "riding on boats" around the kitchen and they brought Dane into the action.

Dane has taken up counter-sitting. He loves to play with the mixer attatchments.

Alyssa had her Christmas program this week. I'm sure it was good....I was having a hard time seeing over the person in the middle recording the whole thing on THEIR I-PAD! GRRRRRR. Rude much? I think so. But anyway, I'll be done venting about it now. Alyssa in the second one from the right. 

 It was actually snowing for 20 or so minutes the other day....and blowing! But the girls were so excited they had to go out and play.

 I saw this idea on Pintrest....you color on sandpaper, then iron it onto a shirt. We had some friends over and made shirts and it was a blast!

 Our little puppy!

 Sorry this is sideways! I missed on the turning. I was trying to get a pic of Dane who is starting to get up on all fours! So exciting!

 TRICKS!

 All dressed up ready for church. WOw. We make some cute kids.

 He is so flingin' flangin' cute! I found white shirts at Kmart none the less... so I bought the next size too because it is so hard to find dress shirts for this little man and he grows out of them soooo fast.

 The dashingly handsome men in my life

Alyssa got out of school for Christmas break last Wednesday and it has been a PARTY! I don't think I've actually made a real meal since then. We have watched Christmas movies and played with friends and eaten A LOT of junk! I can't believe tomorrow is Christmas Eve. This will be our first year staying in our own house for Christmas! We are really excited to start some of our own traditions. BUt we are also bummed to not get to spend time with the family. We sure will miss them. Merry Christmas Everyone!
