12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS...

 For part of our Christmas present this year from my parents we were given the 12 days of Christmas to help add to our food storage.  It was fun to get a surprise delivered each day to our door.  I am so amazed at how clever Ruthie is with her rhyming skills... She is a very talented lady :)  Thanks mom and dad.  We loved our surprises each day :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

~~HAPPY~~

 We got together with the Denning's a few days before Christmas.  We went to Spaghetti Factory for dinner and than after we played "Happy" and a few other games at our house.  It was a great time hanging out with one of our FAVORITE families :)

Each person played with $5.  Ashley was the winner so she got $50.  Jake came in second so he got his $5 back.  It was a good time... 

A new tradition has been born :)

 

SANTA CLAUSE

 We went and saw Santa Clause at Trolley Square the Monday before Christmas.  Even though our kids are getting older I am so glad they will still sit on his lap. (Mostly because they know how much I love to get their picture with him :)  This Santa has to be THE BEST Santa there is.  He is SO, SO cute and I love his real beard :)

 

WINTER FORMAL

 Rachel had her Winter Formal Dance last night.  It was girls choice and she asked Jake Turville.  She said he was alot of fun to go with.  They went to Pizzaria Limone for dinner, the dance, hypnotist and crepes at Megan Hopkins after.  Rachel was one of 7 that got hypnotized.  The video footage is quite entertaining to watch.  She said it was such a weird experience being hypnotized :) Only a few more high school dances left for Rachel.  It is Crazy she is getting near the end of her High school journey :(
