Christmas Preparations & Parties

Christmas this year has been exciting. Emersyn is really getting into the spirit. We listen to Christmas music every chance we get. Her and I snuggle up and watch the old classic Christmas movies, like Rudolph, Santa Claus is coming to town, Grinch and Frosty. We also adopted an Elf from the North Pole and named him Herbie. He flies home each night to report to Santa on Emersyn's behavior. She enjoys learning about Santa and is really excited for him to come this year. It is amazing to have a child at Christmas. The excitement of a child this time of year is truly fulfilling. We have made ornaments, painted pottery at a local store and baked cookies so far. Jason and I went to Jenny & Dustin's Griswold family Christmas party this weekend. Jason Dressed up as Cousin Eddie, and I was Ellen from the movie when they are eating Christmas Dinner.







It is hard to see his dickie under his shirt just like the movie.


Jenny was Margo from the movie when she goes to the Griswold's house and the squirrel jumps on her. She nailed it.





Cookies with Mommy & Daddy:
We take these cookies with us when we ride around town listening to Christmas music and looking at the lights.
