Christmas Vacation

CHRISTMAS

Another Christmas has come and gone, and yet again ... it was GREAT! Since we were going to be all by our lonesome and my parents were going to be all by their lonesome, they decided to head our way and spend the holiday with us.

We had an absolute blast with them! We ate lots of food, we watched lots of movies, did lots of laughing, and got in some good'ol relaxing!!

Since Gma & Gpa got here right before Christmas, we thought it would be fun to go to Hammond's, and do the candy tour. They make all sorts of yummy candy canes, chocolates, marshmallows, and old-fashioned ribbon candy. Seeming how candy canes are a big deal around Christmas time ... it is always fun to go and see how they are made, especially right before Santa comes!

Since Santa is always getting cookies, the ladies each picked out a doughnut at Krispy Kreme. And as usual, they each chose the one with the most sprinkles. Ummmm, I am pretty sure Santa was excited!

Christmas morning was lots of fun. Hannah was so excited. After she realized that Santa had come ... she ran around the house yelling while Olivia followed, trying to figure everything out. Hannah had all of her presents opened within a matter of minutes. As for Miss Livi ... she wanted to save every piece of paper, every bow, and even the curly ribbon.

The ladies got lots of fun stuff. Dress up outfits, barbie stuff, babies, books, projects, and even a new kitchen (apparently we have yet to take a pic of the cute, little red kitchen).
