Christmas Joy!

2 posts in one week!!  It's a new record.  :)   This week has been fun getting ready for Christmas.  Connor is getting really excited for Santa to come and it's fun to see him so happy.  On Wednesday we went to The Greene (outdoor mall) and had dinner, saw the live reindeer they had in the square by the HUGE Christmas tree and then rode in a horse drawn carriage.  We all loved it!  I don't think I've ever seen a live reindeer so that was my favorite part.  Their antlers are huge - I was surprised - looks like a lot to carry around.   Here are some Christmas pics of all of us.  And a song performed by Connor written by Connor!   It's so cute!  :)  Enjoy!

Connor made these at his preschool Christmas party.
One for him and Briella.  

Here's his gingerbread house he made there too. 

Putting the star on the tree.

I love our tree!  It's perfect, a real tree of course (noble fir!).

Real Reindeer! 

Briella enjoying all this.

This is the carriage we rode in.

Connor thought it was so cool!

Connor built a 'house' in our living room. Oh the joys of winter and being inside so much.

Here is Connor's Christmas song!  :)  He wasn't camera shy this time!

New Year's Resolution!

My New Year's resolution is to post more often to our blog!  I know my track record is not so great but I'm determined to keep this resolution.  :)    Here are some pics from the last few months.  (The order is a little weird. Oh well!)
