Merry Christmas

Thursday the girls started making cards for the assisted living center

down the road.

They recruited their friends too so by the end they had quite a few cards. These four girls and one more went to the center Christmas Eve afternoon to spread some Chirstmas cheer, and that they did. It really was fun, some of them just couldn't figure out why they did that, they kept asking what group we were with. How fun to say, it is just because, we will definately keep doing it. It was a beautiful day so the girls enjoyed the sunshine outside and then we had their favorite dinner they talk about all year long. Dinner with candlelight. We could have mac-n-cheese and they would be thrilled as long as it is candlelight. Then after that we headed to the candle light service at church.

After church we had dessert and they got to open one present, they each got a new cd for the karaoke machine. We saved the rest for morning because we didn't have to rush off anywhere and we would be home the whole day. Daddy got a new sweatshirt and I got two gifts. Kylie gave me a card and a bracelet she made and Karinda made me a book and a card.

In the morning the girls did awesome being patient waiting for us to open the rest of their gifts.
Karinda got some doll stuff for Kylie and Kylie picked out a new notebook and two card games for Karinda. They got a few things from us too and Daddy got a board to set up the train set downstairs with him! Eric took the girls shopping earlier this week and they gave me a super cute purse, a ring, necklaces and earrings.

Eric is loving his new hooded sweatshirt too!
