Merry Christmas

We wish you all a Very Merry Christmas. We have a two year old who is very excited for Santa to come tonight. We are enjoying a nice visit with Nana and Papa Murphy.
I will post photos tomorrow.

Merry Christmas!

It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas!

We have been enjoying all the activities that come with the month of December. Playing in the first snow fall of the year, doing Christmas themed crafts, baking, attending Christmas parties, reading Christmas books, going to see Santa and getting into trouble in mom's make-up.

We had a really nice Thanksgiving, as I have told many of you "it took me 5 hours to cook it, one minute for Lydia to decide she wasn't going to eat it, and 2 minutes for Kris to devour it"


After dinner was over and cleaned up we headed out to the "Festival of Trees". It is a display in our convention center of aobut 100 different trees and then wreaths. Lydia actually saw Santa and sat next to him and told him Hi, but that was about it. He asked if she wanted a doll and she said yes.



Friday, I awoke early and went out for my 2nd time ever of Black Friday shopping. I went with Jackie and we hit target at 5am and JoAnne's at 6am. I got what I was after, The Cricut, I love it so far-thanks Mom and Dad for the early gift! We had fun but I was so super tired after it was all said and done. That day Kris worked most the afternoon and until 1am for the football game, good news there BSU won and it looks like they should be going to a BIG bowl game. I hope they are kind to spouse's this year and take me with them, but then we have to find child care for the munchkin.

Saturday must have been a blur because all I remember is going to the Christmas parade in downtown and then Sunday we put up the tree and other decorations. Lydia was SO delighted to see all the pretty things and she did a great job helping us hang the ornaments. This Christmas should be a great one, I am so excited to share it with her as the lights make her light up and smile.

She has also found a new love for the Moon. Every night we have to find the Moon and say hi. It is so dang cute!

Well the little monster is awake from her nap and I have to get ready for work.

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday!
