Busy Busy Busy

Hi! I'm still kicking! Although it is 5 PM on Christmas Eve and I still have two crafties to complete. I'm not really worried about it though. Everything else is wrapped and trimmed and baked and cleaned (for the most part). So it will just be a fun evening finishing up my crafts while White Christmas plays in the background!

(and now it's 7 PM and I only have one left!)

Anyway, I wanted to post a little update since I've got a few pictures itching to be shared. Ben, Sofie and I went to have breakfast with Santa on Saturday morning. We saw Frosty and Rudolph there too. Sofie's not too sure she likes the folks who live at the North Pole...they don't quite look like the rest of us!

Then on Monday a little bit of Christmas arrived on our doorstep (except that there isn't really a step in front of our door) from Colorado.

Ishie could not resist the temptation of fresh presents, which I found rather amusing since there have been presents under our tree for a week or two and she hasn't batted an eye at any of them. She went so far as to open a couple of them while I was preoccupied with some house tidying! When daddy came home, and she was still excitedly pulling presents out from under the tree to show us, we decided that we might as well go ahead and open them all up. So we had a little bit of early Christmas! Here is a video that I took before my memory card became inopportunely full. Thanks to GranDebbie and the Vances for an awfully fun Monday evening!



Last but not least (since it is now 8:30ish and this post still isn't published!!) here are a few pictures I took just a bit ago before Sofie went to bed. She and Baby Nona both got new Christmas pajamas!
