It’s Christmas Time!!

Guess who is back?!  The elves are back for another year of fun and mischief!

Our new tree thanks to Dirt Cheap I found a huge deal on this 9 ft tree!  Loved some of my new decor this year as well!

Our bedroom tree with some of my favorite keepsakes!


Look at these two getting caught in the printer...

AB got her Christmas gift a little early this year.  We had a bed made for her.  She and I had looked and we came up with this corner bed.  I must say she loves it!!  It is like having a bed and a sofa in her room all rolled into one!  It also opened up her bedroom floor so much more, she has a lot more space now.  We took her queen size mattress and box spring and I had someone build a frame and headboard to fit the space exactly.  As you can see in the photo, the measurements were spot on so that it didn't cover her window and the bed fit right down inside the frame!  Super pumped about how it all came together!  Now we are making a few changes to the walls, the angel wings came down and she is going to change the rest of the room up a bit!  Final photos to come!


A bit of our outdoor Breakfast with Santa event.  This year AB's sisters in service group volunteered to help out!


Gingerbread house making with Blakely.
Just look at all these bikes that were donated to The CALL in Pulaski.  Some happy kiddos!
More silliness from Ely and Oly
And look what they brought Brit...now she is one of them!!
B's Christmas list this year!
I am participating in Leadership Arkansas this year, as I was selected along with 30 other individuals from across Arkansas.  In December, we got to have our session at the Arkansas State Capital.  I was able to present a bill (and it actually passed, with my class) on the floor.  It was a great experience and I loved seeing how our government works.  We also spent time with the Governor and others in the senate.

That night we were treated to a private dinner at the Governor's Mansion.  The decorations were just beautiful and I got to bring along the best date! It was a nice night out on the town for mom and dad!  We even got a night at the Museum of Discovery afterwards playing games!



The next day of the session was spent at the Little Rock Air Force Base.  It was really interesting to learn more about what goes on right here in our state.
I even got to drive this baby!  (well pretend to drive)
Last week of school before break! Means lots of holiday dress up! Christmas sock day...
And this one had to perform 3 times in one week at basketball games.  They did great doing 3 different routines!
