Well good thing I didn't resolve to be speedy with blog posts because...😬
BUT we were able to enjoy so many friends and family over the course of December, enjoy the tour -
Playdate with our friends
Molly's first Christmas program! All the love eyes and none of saying the verse or singing 😜
Vintage wool Christmas plaid Sunday!
There's nothing this kitty loves more than Christmas :)
Molly spent a special morning with grandma at her school. They had breakfast with Santa!!!
A visit (or two) to Grand Coney is one of those weird how-did-this-become-a-Christmas-tradition?-yet-it-is for our family. Kinda like Diehard being a Christmas movie...how'd that happen???
An evening at the gardens including a visit with the Big Man!!!!! 🎅
And a morning at the Gardens too!
The first round of baking. My helper elf and her dexterous fingers knocked out all 60 Hershey kisses in no time flat!
We started swim classsssss!!! YAY!!!!
The baby. Doing all the baby things. Playing in the spices (a favorite baby act), hair horns, and basking in fresh sunlight after a good scrub in the tub!
The little girl doing all the little girl things. Cooking and eating candy
Handler time out! Girls night out!
Gingerbread house time!!! What a thrill!
Master Snugglesma :)
Joy of joy another new baby at church to bring a meal to which is all just a cover for baby holding!
Friends from Florida came to see us again! We always have a good time when they're here!
Free Flu! Using our passes to the Children's Museum before they expire :)
Our kiddos enjoyed spending time with several of their favorite babysitters who were home from break. This one knows how to do lunch around here.
Calling all GR kids of the 80's! Breton Village Train alive and well at the Ford Museum!
Nothing says Christmas like 50 degrees and feeding the horses
And opening presents too...
Handler time out - Christmas triumphs!!!
Another family tradition, this one makes a bit more sense I'd say.
Shopping and baking - joy, joy, JOY!
Had some friends over to join us in baking fun!
Handler time out - I have the sweetest friends who make the loveliest things :)
Christmas Eve fun!
SANTA came!!!!!!!!! He left his picture on her new refrigerator. What a guy!
What fun we had for Christmas with our friends and family :)
And who should we see across town at the mall, but our neighbor!
Cousin's here! Three baby boys in one month! Watch them grow!
It snowed! It snowed! It snowed outside! and I mean really, what else are they good for if they can't do a little shoveling?!
We all have the older girls we thought were just fabulous 😍😍
Dreams come true on New Year's Eve! It's such a joy to know someone joyous :)
That's the wrap on the decade! And what a decade it was.
When I took a moment to think back, I went from single, living at home, working full time to married, two kids, and working double time!
AND perfect to finish with a cookie, upon a little archive research, turns out I rolled out my first batch in 2010! A decade later and I still can't pipe... :)
