Getting in the spirit...

Our little family spent the morning participating in some local holiday fun. After a tasty Chick-fil-a breakfast at home we headed to campus for Holiday Happening with the University Ambassadors. They had a number of winter crafts for kids and pictures with Santa. Caden enjoyed himself.


Decorating a cookie.



Cleaning the knife.


Getting a snowman tatoo.

We also did a candy walk and made a candy cane reindeer. A
When we were finished on campus we headed to the farm park for Christmas at the Farm. It was pretty quiet there, but Caden enjoyed showing us all the animals.



After another picture with Santa, Caden mailed his Christmas list.



Dana and Lilli had some good snuggle time.

And now it is nap time. :)

Santa

Caden: Mommy, you can ask Santa for a Leapster.
Me: I can sit with Santa and ask for a Leapster?
Caden: No, you're too big. You can stand next to him and ask him.

Pink

Caden and Lilli had pictures yesterday so I had to get some bows, etc. so you could tell Lilli's a girl. I finally had to embrace the pink....mainly because it's hard to find girl's clothing that doesn't have pink. It's growing on me.

Baking

My most recent baking effort was corn muffins from scratch. I think they turned out pretty good.

Train Party

Lilli and I took Caden to G's train birthday party. It was held on a train that is also a museum. Caden loved it. Catherine did a great job with the party. Each kid even received a handmade train whistle. Here's a picture o Caden ringing the train's bell.
