Sweet Comfort

The other night Allie was coming down our stairs and slipped down some of them. She was crying because she hurt some of her toes. We got her to her room and had her lay down. Rob was too sweet. He started grabbing all of her dolls and stuffed animals and putting them on her, like they were all giving her hugs. He was doing his best to make his sister feel better. I think it helped. She smiled and even gave a little laugh.

Holiday Baking

This weekend I had a baking frenzy!
The kids and I made brownies, peanut butter and chocolate chip cookies, peanut butter blossoms and candy cane marshmallow delights!
The kids were excited to bake with me...and of course, really excited to sample everything!
I love baking with my kids, while listening to Christmas music play in the house.
There's nothing sweeter!

Christmas Cheer

 We went to get our Christmas tree and I think it was the warmest day that we've ever gotten one! Usually I'm so cold I run out to help pick the tree and then run inside Lowe's to hangout until it's time to go. 

We got the perfect tree, as usual.

Markell and Brandie & Joe and Haley came over for chili and cornbread, and then helped decorate our tree. Afterwards, we ate some cookies & enjoyed them with some milk & hot cocoa.

A Visit to Santa

Rob's Rock Climbing Party

This year for Rob's birthday he had a party with his friends at an indoor rock climbing place. 

All the kids did awesome and had so much fun!
