Holidays with the Holidays

Making Stockings
This family activity turned into alot of grumpy mama telling Ethan to stop messing with the sewing machine. Soon I will either learn to sew only at night or Ethan will gain a little more sewing machine safety awareness. Or maybe I'll just chill out. Ha, fat chance!
Also, note preggo belly.

Night Train



Advent: 25 Days of Fun
Some highlights include cookie cutters, tickets to Nutcracker ballet, real nutcracker, candy cane, making a wreath, watching a Christmas movies, Hannukah candles, sledding, making clay ornaments, and much more. It was such a rare treat to have a few nights of good old fashioned craftiness making the envelopes and little hidden surprises.



Christmas Morning: Lots of Loot
Amazing gifts from Nana, Pappy and Santa include construction worker outfit, harmonica holder and drum (read: one man band), electric train and Leap Pad tag reader. Stuffed Woody toy (which Ethan refers to as "my Woody teddy!"), Chutes and Ladders, build-your-own wooden windmill and tractor, and tiny ornaments are also popular.
