deck the halls

Just about as soon as we could manage, once Thanksgiving was over :: Christmas prep was in full swing in our house!  This year we let Jackobi pick out her very own tree for her room.  And yep, you guessed it ... pink was her choice hands down.  It turned out to be a pretty cute addition to her room!  {and Kashton only managed to sneak two candy canes off her little tree the entire month of december!} & when I say sneak I mean sneak! he's such a little turkey! He would crawl in, grab one and go hide while he tried to eat it!  We're going to have our hands full with this one!

When he wasn't busy stealing candy canes, Kashton's absolute favorite thing was our Christmas lights.  From the moment I plugged them in he was in love. I normally wouldn't mind too much, but he was constantly trying to eat them (as he does everything) :: so it was fun keeping him away from them each day. :)

but how do you resist this face!??

in the mix of things we managed to celebrate Jackobi's favorite

two year old's birthday :: happy birthday hadley!!

dressed as princesses & making crowns ::

what more could a girl ask for??

A few of us went to The Nutcracker :: it was such a fun afternoon and I absolutely loved taking Jackobi.  It was so magical for her.  She loved the costumes and dancing, it will be a fun little tradition for years to come!

We had lots of fun at Nate's work party this year.  There was a clown making balloon animals :: that was definitely the highlight of Jackobi's night.

Kashton was less than impressed with his first encounter Santa. 

Jackobi wouldn't come within ten feet.

Our December was definitely filled with candy canes and christmas trees ::

we hope you had as much fun
