Christmas is always my favorite holiday. There are so many fun things to do, so many traditions to start. We decorated the house like crazy this year, Dale really went all out on the lights outside. Ashlee definitely got the Santa thing and LOVED opening presents (most of them had something to do with Dora)! Santa was so silly, he left a mess of ash in front of our fireplace! He sure seemed to love his cookies and the reindeer ate all their carrots!
We carried on our gingerbread tradition, but made a house this year (last year was a train). Dale and Ashlee ended up eating most of the candy while I got super creative with some of the left over decorations from the sugar cookies we made weeks before. I did learn that you have to let the icing dry for a LONG time before you put it up or it will just run everywhere. :) Oh well, we still had fun!
My best friend, Brooke, and I took the girls to see Santa again this year. Surprisingly, neither of them had a fit about it. In fact, Ashlee actually talked to Santa! She told him she wanted a new doll stroller cause her's broke. :)
