Santa Pictures

A friend of ours invited Santa to her house, so the girls and I were able to go over and enjoy pictures with Santa. As you can see, Annie had a great time! This is exactly what Natalie did when she was this age, but I just had to get a picture of it before I took her off. Mean, but I have always loved that picture of Nat. Natalie, on the other hand, loved seeing Santa. She gave him a big hug and probably would have sat on his lap the whole time if he had let her.

First "real" haircut

This is the first time I've had someone else cut Natalie's hair. It was in serious need of a trim. I told the lady shoulder length, or just below, but she did it a little shorter. I think it turned out cute though! And it's nice and healthy on the ends now.

What's been keeping me busy...

*Going to Utah for Thanksgiving and visiting with James' family. His sister, Laurie, was kind enough to run in a 5K on Thanksgiving Day with me, so I did it! And I only walked for maybe 3 minutes, I completely ran the first and third mile, Laurie kept me motivated!
*Upon my return, I immediately became busy with making sure Enrichment night happened for 50 people, I had three days from when I got home, and luckily an amazing committee. So glad that's over.
*Decorating for Christmas, I love it, especially the tree. Natalie had a great time helping out with the ornaments this year. So there are about 20 ornaments on the bottom branches of our tree, I didn't move them because I thought it was so cute, and of course, just the right height for Annie to grab them off.
*Trying to get my now 14 month old to walk, she'll take a few steps, but she is convinced crawling is the best way.
*A fun sewing project to give away, I'll post pictures after I actually give them away.
*Just enjoying my girls, we have a lot of fun together. More posts to come with pictures.
