Oh Christmas Tree...

Happy Birthday Jesus!

Oh Christmas tree, how evergreen your branches! Don't you just love a decorated Christmas tree all lit up and glowing? 

Old Faithful Angel

Little Miss sure does, she was so excited when "Her Christmas Tree" came out of the attic last night. Her squeals of delight were absolutely precious when we plugged in the tree and she came a-blaze with colorful lights.

Monkeying Around

Girls are much different than boys. All Little Dude was excited about at her age was plugging in the tree and what kind of presents were going to show up underneath it.

Getting it just right

This is what happens when you let a two year old decorate the tree without guidance... All the ornaments get stuck in the same spot.

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!

Sweet Children 

Runaway Elf

Elsie just about had enough of this bad behavior. She left a note saying naughty children are scary and if Little Miss doesn't shape up she might be too scared to come back from the North Pole.

A frightened Elsie

Elsie said WHAT?

Are you serious...

Let it snow, snow, snow!

Elsie decided that we don't have enough snow here in Texas, so she decided to make some herself. She strung the kitchen cabinet with puff-ball snowballs on red and green thread.

She just knows exactly how to make Little Miss smile...

Meet Elsie

Our elf. She came from the North Pole to keep tabs on Little Miss.

Seeing RED

Went to get a fill and pedicure today. I thought sparkling red would be nice for Christmas coming up.

Then I got home and Little Miss Toot said she needed to have toes painted like mommy. So this is what happened...
