Christmas Day

We had a lovely Christmas day, everything was so nice, decorative and fun!

Opening stockings.

Wearing the silly crowns out of the party poppers.

Eating dessert.

Opening silly presents.

Vivi's silly present was cat ears. She was SO proud to show them off and smile for everyone, what a ham!

Cousins In Matching Pjs

Cousin Jade came to visit for Christmas and the girls adored spending time with her.

This is honestly the best picture I could get of the three silly girls in their matching pajamas. We had a lovely Christmas Eve celebrating with the Lawrence side of the family.

Attack hugging Jade, she adores her so much!

Happy NEW YEAR!

We had a laid back new year (both our girls were sick) but enjoyed watching fireworks and the traditional new york celebrations on tv. This is the first year Lilly got to stay up and have a toast with us. She enjoyed her bubbly apple juice in a fancy glass!

Santa Came To Our House!

Santa arrived and Lilly was beyond excited this year!

Vivi finding her "dog" santa left for her.

Lilly playing with her castle Santa left for her.

Lilly discovering Santa had filled the stockings.

And drank the milk, ate the cookies and that the "Christmas Deer" had eaten some of the carrots!

Vivi carrying her full stocking around.

 

Enjoying Santa pancakes on Christmas Day.. but Lilly was under the impression that we were making pancakes FOR Santa and he was going to show up.. that was a slight dissapointment for her.

Pre-Christmas At The Beach

A few weeks before Christmas we celebrated with the Wagoners and Edges at the beach.

The girls had fun making cookies with Grandma Ona. Lilly was caught with a mouthful of cookie in this picture!

And loved their matching pajamas, a family tradition.

The New Homes

After bath time the other day the girls climbed into the cupboards and Lilly called them their new homes. Vivi climbed in and said "night, night" and "bye, bye" before closing the door.

Advent Gifts Are Fun

Grandma Ona and Papa put in some major labor of love and made the girls impressive an advent gift string and they have really enjoyed opening a present every day. Most days Lilly takes both gifts and Vivi is left with the wrap and ribbons. So far that works this year but Vivi is starting to get wise to it...

Here is Lilly posing with the exciting presents.
