Tree trimming and Baking Day :)


Every year my family gets together to help decorate and put the tree up at my parents house. Usually we eat dinner and watch a Christmas movie... and put all of our ornaments on the tree. My mom would get us one each year growing up so we would have them on our own tree when we moved out. Of course we leave some for her tree too!!! David and I have already started this tradition with Gigi! This year she picked out a santa claus one that she just can't destroy ;) She knows that is the ONLY ornament that she can touch. She will take it off the tree hug it and then put it back on the branches... thankfully we have not had a problem with the tree so we didn't need a gate for it after all!

This year at the tree trimming party I added a new activity. A gingerbread village!! Each couple got to make their own little house! Everyone had a lot of fun doing it... sadly I don't have any pictures. I did however get pictures of Gracelyn in the cutest outfit from her Grandma Debby helping her Aunt Ashlee and her Nana decorate the tree :)

lights!!!
OOoo yay!!



BAKING DAY!! My sisters and I meet at my mom's house and bake all day!! This year we baked on and off for almost 7 hours!! Gracelyn and I wore our matching aprons and she had a lot of fun licking the spoons!!!



THIS IS FOR AUNT SUSIE!!! My sweet aunt got Gracelyn this outfit for her birthday and I had to post pictures to show her HOW CUTE Gracelyn looked in her panda outfit :)
we added the tutu to make it more fun :)
I am so thankful for my sisters and my mom! We have so much fun together and I can't imagine my life with out my best friends!!!!
