Christmas

Christmastime at our house was so much fun this year! We saw Santa at the mall, went to the tree farm and picked out our tree, went to downtown Bowling Green to see them light it up, walked around our neighborhood looking at all the light displays, made cookies and crafts. Tara was equally enthusiastic about all of it, but when Christmas day finally came that was the best of all. Went spent the first part of the day at home, then went up to my mom and dad's for the afternoon. Ryan and I agreed that this was our favorite Christmas so far.

Here they are snuggling. They are so sweet to each other - even when Santa isn't watching.

Sorcha definitely approved of the gingerbread house Tara and I made.

Crazy faces

I love the look on Sorcha's face here.

Tara playing with the train set and table. This was easily her favorite present.

The kitties really loved the girls' new furniture. I'm pretty sure they thought it was for them.

Cleo

Julian. It looks like he and Sorcha are having quite an interesting conversation.
Tara also got the Transformers bike she asked Santa for.
She was afraid she couldn't ride a big kids bike (even with the training wheels), but after she tried it she said "I guess I am a big kid after all!" Sweet, but I almost cried.
