Tis the Season

Here's the tree!  We have a few things that seem to be becoming traditions for the season.  Here they are! :)

And, the elves..thanks to Aunt Tina for hooking us up with these at the end of last season.  Ruby's elf was named Didi Sprinkles and Owen's is named Racecar Cuddly.

Here is Ruby and Owen shopping for ginger bread cookie decorations.

These two continue to LOVE to bake, cook, or anything in the kitchen.  

Oh man, who is the lucky recipient of this sugar bomb.

We went to see the Nutcracker.  They made it through almost the whole thing, loved it, and acted it out for days afterwards.

The advent calendar.

Ruby and Owen were very involved in shopping for gifts, wrapping gifts, they helped make playdough for our friends, and delivered the packages too.

Zoo lights!

...with Team Kirby.  This santa was awesome.  And, Ruby and Owen actually told him something they wanted.  We did not prep for that nor have we ever really talked about doing that with Santa.  Luckily it was just one small thing each....which then we had to get. It is pretty fun actually- starting a new tradition.  One small gift wrapped in different paper from Santa.  The rest are from mom and dad, or whomever else.  Pictures to come. 

Tis the season!
