Pre-Christmas Preparations

Preschool party...Ali's favorite part was eating the sprinkles and frosting off the cupcake. It looks like that was Lizzie's favorite part too!
Elizabeth liked the bells on the Christmas tree and all of the decorations around the house. She kept clapping her hands and saying, "Da, da, da" so she could look at the snowmen and stacking dolls.

We made SOOO many Christmas cookies this year!! Ali was the best helper and cut out cookies and put lots of sprinkles on them! We ate lots and then gave them to our neighbors, family, and friends!


Lizzie's spice shop...she loves playing in the spice rack cupboard! She helped us bake cookies by finding all of the spices we needed! Ali says...."Lizzie, I'd like some cinnamon for my applesauce...can I have some from your spice shop?"



Ali was SO lucky to have 2 Christmas Advent calendars this year! One from Germany from Uncle Colin and Elizabeth....Ali LOVED opening the doors and finding the chocolates...what a treat! And one from Chris' Aunt Vicki, Uncle Jim, and cousins Kirstin and Kris that had stickers...she loved it!! Both calendars helped her count the days until THE DAY!
