Christmas with Dad

We went to Fort Smith yesterday to have Christmas with Dad.

Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas!

Eddie

We always give Eddie Christmas gifts in gift bags with treats at the bottom so he'll "open" them. I caught him trying to sneak a peak in the bags under the tree.

Party Day!

Yesterday was the last day of school before Christmas break so the girls partied at school.

Two Little Elves

I love the Office Max thing with the dancing elves! I laugh every time someone sends a link of their family dancing around so...We "elfed" the girls!

Silver Dollar City

We went to Silver Dollar City on Saturday. It wasn't quite as warm as I believe they were predicting all week but we still had a great time. The girls rode one of the rides 14 or 15 times. I snapped this picture when we were at the giant tree waiting for the big lighting ceremony. It was dark so I can't believe the picture turned out. We also tried to get some shots of the girls on the little roller coaster but all we got were some good shots of the fog. When the girls got off the ride we were looking at the shots they sell and you could see the girls sitting on the ride with Jason and myself in the background looking at our camera...Jason thought we should have bought it to have a family picture.

Christmas Tree

We finally got the tree up last week (not the Saturday after Thanksgiving like I normally like to get all the holiday decorations up). We (I) went with green and brown (maybe more green and gold) decorations so I was able to leave a ton of ornaments up in the attic. This is also our cheap tree from Wal-Mart that we got last year since I was tired of the 9ft tree we'd had (it was too wide!).

We went to look at a house and I was distracted by their tree - she had black and white pictures framed on red and white scrapbook paper and I loved it so I wanted to copy it. I don't have nearly as many pictures but more ornaments and I used the green and brown paper and sepia toned photos.
