December Thrills

The girls have taken to playing together in Sullivan's room lately. Favored activities are "Cat in the Hat" or movie trailers on the ipad and Leggos.

 Playing hide and seek in the laundry baskets...

 Gingerbread house!

 A favorite activity from our childhood: Chocolate Advent Calendars! (Found at Fresh Market)

 Making salt ornaments for the tree.

 Sullivan really got into this...she loved rolling the dough and could press the cookie cutters well. Sawyer preferred to paint. Sullivan's work turned out (below) to be great additions to our humble tree.

We have been in full Christmas mode around here since just after Thanksgiving and as the girls are both (for the first time) aware and excited about it this year, it has felt extra special. And the season is just beginning! Here are a few things that we have been up to lately...Merry Christmas!
