The kids made gingerbread crafts. They could either do a Snoopy doghouse or a sleigh with Santa. The girls all picked the sleighs.

Christmas morning-looks like Santa came. This year he brought Kaylee a digital camera, a scrapbook and some scrapbook accessories. Ainsley got a Barbie dollhouse, furniture and a new Barbie. Apparently Santa’s elves were really busy this year and had to send Brad the blueprints for the house. Of course Brad agreed to help and when Santa got to our house on Christmas Eve the house was ready to be set up and have the furniture added to it.

We had a very blessed Christmas. Mostly because we got to spend time with our family!! The girls must have been on their best behavior for most of the year because they sure got some great things!

The last few days have been a lot of cleaning and organizing! I’m still not done. However it gives me something to work on over New Year’s weekend. Yep, I really live the wild lifeSmile!!
