Fun With Butters

I tried to have fun with our elf, Butters, this year; but it was hard with Amy around.  She is too smart. :)  She asked so many questions, about everything pertaining to Butters.
Butters went home last night.  Meggie was sad to see that he wasn't here this morning.  She really loved looking for him each morning.
Here are a few pictures from our month with our elf.

Visit with Santa- 2013


Christmas Morning 2013

We have had a wonderful Christmas.  The girls are getting so big, so fast, and Christmas is so different every year now.  This year was all about playing, running around, and having fun...loud, loud, loud fun. :)
The girls are amazing, and I can't wait to see what the new year brings.




Mommy's Christmas present from daddy.  A waffle maker that makes waffles in the shapes of elephants, giraffes, and lions. :)  So much fun.



Christmas toes.
Fast drying nail polish.  Best. Invention. Ever.

A designer bag from Aunt Kelly and Uncle Eric.


A train set to share.

Megan fought and fought and fought her nap today.
But the glider won.


Christmas Eve

Love these two...





We watched The Grinch, and then made Grinch Shakes (mint choc-chip ice cream, whipped cream, and a cherry on top).  Yummy!!!!

Amy left a note, cookies, and juice for Santa.


Christmas goodies waiting for morning!!




School Christmas Shirt- Yikes!!!



Gingerbread house decorating...

I got the girls a gingerbread house to decorate this year.  
We had a lot of fun with this project.  Meggie was the quality control manager, and tested out all of the candy before we put it on the house.  Amy was very serious about the whole thing, and got quite bothered by Meg's shenanigan's. :)

This picture perfectly sums up the entire experience.

Nailed It!!!! :)
