| They had an ice skating rink outside during the Holidays here! |
 |
| After a lunch break Harper decided to take a couple laps around the rink |
 |
| She got brave and decided to try it out herself |
 |
| This is the outfit that Harper chose to go ice skating the second time |
 |
| She decided to try it without the ski helper |
 |
| Then we decided we were DONE!!! |
 |
| Sydney got even braver |
 |
| Then we fell |
 |
| This is how she wanted to skate after the fall |
 |
| Outside enjoying the flurries starting to come down, mom ran inside to grab gloves and then……... |
 |
| Harper tripped and fell into our retaining wall and ended up having to go to the OR for several layers of stitches. (This is a right before Harper drove the Barbie Jeep into the OR) |
 |
| By the time we made it back home there was a light dusting and Harper was back to her normal self once the anesthesia wore off. |
 |
| We started Christmas with the cousins!! |
 |
| Isn't Baby Marin the cutest present!!! |
 |
| Snuggle time with Uncle Josh |
 |
| My Little Princess |
 |
| Aunt Mel getting some quality time with Marin |
 |
| Next we went to Na and Pop's and enjoyed christmas with Aunts and Uncles!!! |
 |
| Showing off our earrings from Aunt Kathy |
 |
| Being silly and posing like she did in her ballet picture |
 |
| Christmas morning at our house with G and Grandpa |
 |
| Trying to get out everything out of her stocking |
 |
| The girls got balance bikes for Christmas and took them for a spin |
 |
| Sydney figured it out quickly |
 |
| Ace enjoying his Christmas present!!! Extra prayers are needed for him because he was diagnosed with cancer and we are starting Chemo this week in hopes he stays with us for at least another 2 years!!! |
 |
| Reindeer food = Corn, bird seed, and sprinkles (If my girls ask if reindeer like any of the listed ingredients I hope you tell them YES!!!!) |
 |
| Harper was more of a thrower, than a sprinkler |
 |
| Cookies, Cheese (for santa mouse), and Milk |
 |
| One last picture with Sophie (our elf) before she flies back to the North Pole |
 |
| We went to Home Depot to find the perfect Christmas Tree and Surprise Santa was there!!! |
 |
| Dinner with Santa! |
 |
| Sydney was a sugar plum fairy in the night before christmas! (Got to love that she was able to use that ballet costume again :) |
 |
| At the end of the program Harper's class came out and sang Jingle Bells with Sydney's class |
 |
| They also sang "We Wish You a Merry Christmas". They even had hand movements, that Harper actually did!!! |
 |
| Harper was a star in her very first Christmas Program |
 |
| Notice the orange flip flops on Harper (She would not take them off until we got down to the sand) |
 |
| They were able to change them to white! (I love this Picture!!) |
 |
| Abigail was a little camera shy, but this one turned out great!!! |
