Getting into the Christmas Spirit

The annual gingerbread house

Maren always take charge of the icing.

Liz came to our house and gave four of the kids haircuts. (I still haven't been able to bring myself to cut Annalisa's long blonde hair.) It was easy, inexpensive, and the children really liked her. We will be doing this again sometime. 

They are such great kids!

Anna is so excited for Christmas. She loves playing with the decorations and singing along with Christmas carols. She talks about Santa, and how he is bringing her a Rainbow Unicorn night light. She picked it out herself at Costco, and I bought it, so I'm not sure why Santa is getting the credit...

 Tawny got the girls matching dresses for their birthdays. Don't they look adorable? We spent a fun morning wandering around the park taking lots of picture of these cuties. I expect Tawny will soon be posting some sweet pictures of Aubree. She was very cooperative and beautiful, which does not always happen with Miss Aubree. After the park they went to Tawny's to celebrate Aubree's birthday. A princess party! They do look like little princesses. :)

Mitchell was doing his best to get in all the pictures. He's a funny little guy.
