A fun start to the Christmas season

We have been very busy with lots of fun festivities to celebrate the girls (and mine too) FAVORITE time of the year. We had Mimi and her friends annual get together with the grandmothers, mothers, and children. It was complete with crafts, snacks, and of course a present for each from the grandmothers.

We went with our friends the Coulters and Pylants to see "Christmas Now and Then"....and although I didn't get any pictures from the highly entertaining program I did capture our "American Girl Dolls"...in their coats bundled up ready to go before we left!


Our old pal Fiddle has re-joined our family for the month of December and he seems to be hanging around lots of different places this year, and making a few messes too!



We try not to ever miss the Christmas parade. Even though it was very cold, and rainy we got a great spot thanks to our friend Kathyrn and stayed warm and dry....it was great but didn't EVER think Santa was going to make it by! He finally did and Mary B. thought he looked SLIM this year....(maybe it was the angle from the top of the fire truck?!)
