For those of you who have followed our website/blog for as long as you can remember are probably mad at the 6 month break I have taken from the blog. SORRY! It has been a busy year all the way around. As we settle in to the last few weeks of the year, things are no different, but I feel compelled to try to start blogging again.
Earlier this week I was downloading some photos from my phone to the computer and realized I have so many great moments that I have not been sharing. As you all know 2013 has been, in a word, challenging!! I would not change a thing, but am happy to be sitting here at home, in Durham, watching TV with Troy while Grace is sound asleep probably dreaming about her Elf on the Shelf or what Santa might bring her. We are truly blessed beyond what we deserve!!
December has already been a fulfilled month for us…enjoy!
Grace got to visit with Santa on Black Friday
The innocence of a child!!
TOO CUTE FOR HER OWN GOOD!!
Grace wrote her own Christmas list for Santa this year.
She worked really hard on it! This one I kept for the scrapbook!!
If you have already gotten your Christmas card from us, these next few photos might look familiar. Our little girl is growing up too fast!!
Enjoyed some Friday night fun with the Harris's..
Jason and Troy broke in the pool table for the first time at the new house.
The girls had fun cheering on their daddies.
I hosted my first official party and invited some of my favorite ladies over for a cookie exchange. We had a great time and were on a sugar high after tasting all the treats.
Cookie award winners
My cookie haul!
We enjoyed helping mom and dad decorate their house…
Huntley loved Papa's new train
Grace gave Huntley some pointers on how to hang an ornament. He was mostly interested in the ornaments that were shaped like a ball which is he favorite word at the moment.
Huntley also loved granny's lighted presents.
Granny and Papa got us all tickets to the Santa Train at the Museum. We froze but Grace LOVED it, so it was well worth the cold!
We braved the impending rain for the Bahama Christmas Parade and it was great...
Yes that is an entire bag FULL of candy she got thrown to her at the parade!
We also went to Disney on Ice after the parade…
Merida & Snow White were so excited for the show.
Our Elf of the Shelf, Boombah, has been up to no good….
Lots of cute holiday outfits….
Note: She had to dress festive and "grinch" for school
Well hopefully all this cuteness has helped make up for the lack of posts. I hope to do more before the end of the year. We hope everyone enjoys all the festivities coming up with the holidays.
