Tis the season

Well it's that time of year again, and this year is going to be a completely different experience. we are looking forward to Christmas with Presley this year and lets face it, it's totally self indulgent for us this year since she is so little and Christmas to her is just going to be a busy day seeing lots of faces she rarely if ever sees. But none the less we are excited for it. We have done some shopping for her and while in the toy store over the weekend Jeremy says to me "lets get out of this *@#% hole." I laughed and said that this was just the beginning! Year after year for the next while we will be making the dreaded journey into Toys R Us, Tis the season! :)

    Over the weekend we had my dads annual Christmas party, which is always fun and intimate. This year Colleen decided that the couples were going to decorate Gingerbread houses, what a riot this was! My Grandpa was the star entertainer of the evening, he could not for the life of him get his gingerbread christmas tree to stay up , and he broke it a few times! I have included a few pictures for your enjoyment!

 

Everyone had a great time making thses and here are the final pictures...

After building our houses we headed downstairs to open gifts. Presley of course got spoiled! We really enjoyed getting together with my dad and Colleen, my grandparents and my sister and her girlies.
