Saturday Wedding

Saturday my oldest niece got married. 

It doesn't seem like it should be happening but it did :) and she was a beautiful bride. Here are a few pictures from her day

Harbison Christmas

Saturday at lunch we a very merry Christmas with the Harbison Family.

Ellie and Annie love playing with their boy cousins. It's always fun and wild !!

Out attempt at a family picture...

There was a little show by the kids before the unwrapping began. And we are so lucky that we were able to bring home these little elf voice like mega phones 😳😳

The girls and their awmaw ❤️

Opening gifts..

Christmas wishing

I've got in my mind that I need... Ok want a new sofa. I have been looking around and think I have found it!

Tada!!

It's an IKEA look a like pottery barn. 

I have been reading several reviews and all saw that it's a great couch and cleans and maintains easily with kids. 

Now I just have to get the courage up to order it because ordering new,big things like this makes me nervous and I usually just end up NOT 😬

Friday night fun

Friday night we had a Christmas get together with the Joneses. Ellie had a big time playing with her cousin...

I didn't get many pictures but managed to get a few :)

Wrapping up school

Thursday was the girls last day of school.

Ellie could have not been more excited about her party but was pretty sad that it was her last day. She loves school and said that she didn't want to take a break for Christmas and wants to go through Christmas 😄

Ellie had made a fruit loop garland at school but it never made it to the tree... But instead to two little mouths. 

It was pajama day at school for both of the girls. This made them VERY happy!!!

They had planned all week what pjs they were going to wear and although I would have rather them worn their patching Christmas pjs I couldn't have broken their hearts because they were set on princess pjs  

They both had great, fun days and ate now ready to bring in the Christmas fun.

Cookies and Cousins

Monday night we continued our tradition with decorating cookies with ALL our cousins. What a fun, sweet tradition.

Before we have everybody over we always cut and cookies the cookies first and my girls live this. 

Oh what fun!

We had pizza and fruit before kicking off the decorating.

Then we got busy because we had a ton of decorating to do. 

Let me tell you...

This little girls decorated cookies for the longest time. She probably decorated more than her momma and that was a lot. She loved this!!!

And this little one loves eating the icing 😄

Yummy!!!

This and that...

We have been super busy around here lately... Trying to get in all the Christmas cheer before its over

Saturday night Matt and I went to eat sushi for supper. This is a first for us and won't be the last time. Matt always reminds me it's good to do "novice" things and this was for sure that!! We went to rock and roll sushi and sat at the bar and had a great time. 

Sunday morning at church...

Aren't they the sweetest?!

Sunday night we visited our old small group for a friends birthday party. It was great to visit and see old sweet friends. 

Yesterday, we met Matt for lunch while I got my tire repaired. 

Annie was just googly about her daddy... Which made him so happy so I had to take a few pictures 😍❤️

Christmas Parade

Saturday afternoon we walked down to the Christmas Parade.

The girls love this tradition and get so excited about it.

I had told Ellie that she could be in the parade with her gymnastics but when she realized that she couldn't catch candy she decided to be a spectator instead 😄

And the best part of the parade was the big jolly man 🎄🎁
