Decorating for Christmas

I meant to post these pictures a few weeks ago, but the craziness of Christmas started early this year. Yes we strapped Ashton down in the bumbo seat for as long as he would allow it.  Also Colbie put most of the ornaments on the tree, so they're all bunched in one area.  In the past this drove me crazy, but this year I didn't move any ornaments and I love it.

Little Walker

Ashy took his first steps a few weeks ago.  He's still pretty wobbly, but is picking up walking quickly.  He has no fear and just goes for it over and over again.  He's such a boy.  He has also started climbing everything.  This cutie is going to keep us very busy in Minnesota this Christmas!

 

Tis the Season

We started off the holiday season with a little snow, which both kids loved!  We also decorated our tree (yes there's a gate around it), visited Santa (we got one quick picture before Ashton started crying), and had an amazing day with Mrs. Claus.  Complete with hot cocoa, cookies, cupcakes, crafts, and a magic show with a real bunny!

Dear Santa

Dear Santa....

"My favorite thing about Christmas is candy canes, presents, and decorating the Christmas tree.  My favorite reindeer is Rudolph, I just love him so much!  I have a Christmas calendar with chocolate inside.  I have been working hard to be a good sister to my little brother Ashton.  For Christmas I would like...
1. A Singing Elsa Doll 2. An Elsa Dress 3. An Elsa Necklace"

Thank you,
Colbie
