Holiday Scrapbook

It's my favorite thing to do after packing up the tree and re-organizing the toy mess after the holidays. Scrapping the holiday photos and greeting cards into my album! I started a holiday album a few years ago and add the new photos every years. This year was hard to condense it down to 4 pages.. But very little paper or accessories are needed.

Kayden's 6th Birthday

Here's the card I made this afternoon for Kayden's birthday. My godson turned 6. I can hardly believe it! Since I wrapped his gifts in Spiderman wrapping paper, I was inspired to make a matching card! I cut the spider web with my Cricut Paper Doll Cartridge. Used a Spiderman sticker and stamped word with Stampin Up "On Your Birthday".

The holidays

I can't believe how quickly the holiday have come and gone. Here's a few pics from our family celebrations.

Merry Christmas

From our house to yours! Happy Holidays!!

I'm excited for the snow!! But with all the holiday excitement, my heart goes out to other families who have lost a loved one this year or during this holiday season. I hope everyone takes a moment from the chaos of wrapping paper, cookies and food to remember what's really the important part of this holiday. We spend weeks...even months preparing and shopping and it flies by so quickly.

Hugs!!

Christmas Program

Noah's Ark Daycare had its annual Christmas Program Monday night. It's always so fun to watch the little ones walk down the aisle dressed up. This year was a little different version. A little girl is reading a story from the bible. And yes that little girl is Sydney. She takes a visit to Bibleland and this is the scene she saw.

Sydney opened the bible on cue..without practicing!

The Friendly Beasts

The angels on high! Maddie (in the middle) is one of Sydney's best buds. They've been in daycare together since they were crawling! Maddie motioned to Sydney to step down and stand by the angels. Sydney did..while watching Cathy reading the entire time. Then she tip-toed back up before she could see.

Mary and Joseph. Caleb sat up there so nice. I was afraid he'd see Tyler sitting in the 2nd row and yell something.. But he didn't! Wheew!

Sydney was great about letting me try to curl her hair so she'd fit the part of the "little girl" A stretch for this one at times I think! There's always a moment in the program that brings a tear to my eye. I'm so thankful for my children and the wonderful friends and family in our lives who make an effort to come and watch!

Family Fun

Sydney's latest little trend is to wear dresses to daycare..and everywhere! Thanks to our neighbor Ellen. The girls love dressing up! From jammie dresses to princesses... they never go home in their own clothes!

May the Force be with You!

Mini Vader ready for battle

Tyler built the cutest little robot out of the bristle blocks.

Typical Sassy Sydney- What a face!
She has got ATTITUDE!

Dance Lessons!~These little ladies are so much fun to watch. It's quite the challenge to get 3 years to follow..but add some jumps and wiggles and you are good to go!

It's hard to believe that the holidays are fast approaching.. Thanksgiving dinner to be planned and Black Friday shopping lists to be made. Take time today just for a moment to enjoy the little things as days go by so quickly... whether it's peace and quiet.. or a belly giggle from 2 kids who don't want to go to bed.
