A sweet note from Callie - complete with a snack.
She left this for me before going to school.

Hunting for some holiday cheer

This is our third Christmas in NC and the 3rd year I have spent tireless hours on the internet searching for a cut-your-own tree farm that is less than an days drive away and has REAL pine trees! No luck once again but we did find Booths in South Carolina..about 60 miles away. They had some pines but not "REAL" pines lol. So we ventured out into their vast fields to find one that would be acceptable for these picky New England natives...

and by the way..it was 65 degrees out!

HERE IT IS!

The perfect tree! a 7 foot tall Cedar!

Dear Santa,

All I want for Christmas are some new clothes and some shoes that fit.
Love, Lilah

Santa Baby..

A sister for Christmas

I think they both got just what they wanted for Christmas already...a sister

Just the right spot..

Makalei is a perfectionist at heart...always looking for just the right place to put each ornament. Sometimes needing Daddys help to reach...

Investigating the tree...

At first she didnt seem to care less about the tree itself..but as we added lights & bells and all that good stuff, she suddenly wanted to discover every inch of it~!

let there be light!

Our pretty little tree! Still missing some ornaments but they are in CT so they are going to have to wait!

Easter came early..

For Lilah..who decided to raid the diaper bag in her bedroom closet and found Mommys stash of Jelly Bellys! She was mighty proud of herself but sasly mommy had to take them away.

ROCK ON LITTLE STAR!

A girl after daddys own heart!
