Ok, so I know haven't posted a whole lot this month, but really, you didn't want to read what I would have written. Ok, it wouldn't have been that bad, but I have been ridiculously busy, so it would have been really quick! Here, then, for your reading/viewing pleasure, is some of what I've been up to this holiday season!!
We went to the town's Old Fashioned Christmas where we....
...painted our faces
...decorated some cookies
...walked down the street for some hot chocolate and doughnuts...
And these are the lovely ladies I get to work with!
We decorated a Gingerbread House. Ok, I did the icing and TJ, with minimal help from James, put on all the candy. TJ really has a mind of his own, wish there was something I could do about that....
and here is the finished product...
We went to our ward Christmas party. I didn't take any pictures while we were there, but here is TJ just as we were about to leave!
...some peanut brittle...
We got some pjs Christmas Eve which we wore while opening presents at our place Christmas morning. James was such a sport to wear the pants I made. He really isn't much of a pj kind of guy!
TJ wore his toolbelt forever and was too busy hammering everything in site to really focus on opening presents for a while...
We went to Manda and Tem's in the evening on Christmas Day to open some more presents and play games, where TJ got his big present from Grandma and Grandpa Thornhill...
I'm not sure who was more excited, James or TJ. So fun!! And here is TJ wearing his new robe I made for him and the great slippers Cheryl made for him. So cute! I love them!

Excellent run down, and I think the gingerbread house looked great! You'd never know it was decorated by someone who isn't even 2 yet. Oh, and the thing about getting him not to have a mind of his own....not a you-know-what's chance you-know-where. We tried that with YOU (and all the other kids for that matter) and it never worked.... just as well, look how great you turned out! Thanx for an AWESOME Christmas and an extremely fun day shopping with you and Manda on boxing day.
LUV U!!
Yay I get to see the whole dress...you did an awesome job. I must say you look absolutely stunning. Wow when you bake you really bake. WHoa, I made 2 batches of cookies and I was tuckered out. Nice work.
