Christmas Pics

Here is how we spent Christmas. It was so nice having Dan home for a few days. The pictures are backwards chronologically because I was to lazy to switch them.

Funny Hannah

Hannah: Mom, sometimes fingers break. Mine broke.

Me: Oh it did

Hannah: Yes, it fell off and there was chicken inside. It was a chicken finger.

Santa!

The title pretty much says it all.




Emma wanted an Easy Bake Oven

Hannah asked for a Barbie (this was the first I heard of this)

Favorite Christmas Movies

I had to start a list of my favorite Christmas movies. Please feel free to tell me about yours.

Elf - Hilarious, the kids watch it over and over. "I forgot to give you a hug"

Scrooged - Bill Murray makes me laugh plus I love the sing along at the end

National Lampoons Christmas Vacation - Classic, can't get through the Christmas season without it

It's A Wonderful Life - I cry every time

O Tannenbaum

Did anyone else learn that song in elementary school??

Anyway, last night I decided that we needed our Christmas tree. Because of the trip to Dallas we hadn't gotten the time to get one. (I just HAVE to have a real one) So I called up my Dad/plumber/light hanger/lawn mower to see if he could bring his truck over to help us pick one up. We decided to drive over to Harmon's because it is the closest place that has trees. My dad (thanks again daddy!) got there first and called me as I was on my way to tell me that he couldn't see any more trees. As we were on the phone he saw one last tree hiding in the corner. When I got there I could see the reason that is was the last tree left. It was pretty tree, but huge. It was a good thing my home for some weird reason has 9 ft ceilings. So we got the tree home and after a little bit of tree grooming with the clippers me and the girls got to decorating. They were so excited which made it so much fun. I'm so glad we finally have a tree.

(Dan, I hope you like the cute pictures of your little girls. Wish you were here. XOXO)

Silly

They both were doing their best pose

Finished!
