Preparing for Santa

Yikes, what a busy day! I had to work on the 23rd and arrived home to this! Berries and Buddy were busy making snow angels! :) I was at work most of it, but we still got a lot done! :) We baked Santa cookies, Zach and the kids had Christmas with the McCaslin's, we went to church, helped a family in need (delivered gifts), ate pizza, decorated cookies, sprinkled the yard with oats and glitter for the reindeer, read Tis' was the night before Christmas, Frosty the Snowman, and our Elf on the shelf book for the final time! Whew, what a busy day! :)

Baking with the family

My sister arrived home last weekend and we quickly got busy making candy and goodies at my Grandma's house! We started around 1 and spent several hours baking, decorating, talking and eating! Its good having my sister home since she lives so far away, even if she was tired and rude. The house was filled my mom, sister, aunt Rhonda, my sister's little siblings and Ansley! :)

Jammies!

After Santa had made his wonderful visit, the kids had a gift exchange of PJ's! All Christmas themed! :)

 

Awesome idea! These are the jammies they wore on Christmas Eve too!
