A Very Merry Christmas!

What a wonder Christmas we had. I think that this has been the best one yet. Piper was so much fun to watch - she was so enthusiastic about everything she received. Santa came! As some of you know - when you asked Piper what she wanted from Santa she would reply, "Three presents, one cake, and one vanity." Of course, Santa delivered!
She was so excited to see that Santa remembered to bring her a cake:0)




Grandpa John & Grandma Sue gave Piper a fancy new princess keyboard (we are thankful it wasn't a drum set). She loves to play her "beautiful" music for us!
As soon as she opened her princess outfit she got from Doug & Judy, she insisted that she wear it. In fact, she kept it on for the rest of the morning.
Just a little bit of the loot she got. She was spoiled by everyone. These are the presents that Doug & Judy sent her - she loved them all!
Grandma Toni got her a cowboy hat and a new horse (she is getting a bit big for Burrito). We thought she looked so cute.
We hope everyone had a Merry Christmas. Thanks for all the wonderful gifts, joy, and love you sent this way!

Christmas Eve

We had such a fun Christmas Eve. We finished up some last minute shopping, did some last minute baking, and did a little relaxing. Later, Piper put on her new Christmas Pjs and she opened one present. She loved it!
She opened a Cabbage Patch Little Red Riding Hood doll. Of course she had to sleep with her that night while she waited for Santa to come.

A BIG Surprise!

Oh boy did Piper get a big surprise today. Grandma & Grandpa came from Oregon and this is what they got Piper for Christmas. Since they won't be with us for Christmas, she got to have her present early. This is Piper getting her first look at the Jeep. I think she was in shock - she couldn't believe that it was really hers.


The look of pure joy!

First Big Snow!

We finally had enough snow fall the other day that Piper was able to go out and play. She was so excited to put on her new snow suit. She had an absolute blast!

Snow!

We have been slowly decorating the house for Christmas. The other day the power went out for a couple of hours, so Doug and I cut out snowflakes to hang in the windows - it was so much fun!!!

Little Lady

I can't believe how big she is getting. She has went from a little baby girl to a big girl over night. She is such a cute little bug - I love her so much!

This is what she calls her "trophy". I picked this up at the Ada County Christmas Show. The vendor was so nice - she just gave it to me at the end of the show. As most of you know - Piper loves Pez, so this was the perfect treat for her.
We have been slowly adding to Piper's hair bow & flower collection. While Aunt Sara was here Piper had to get them all out to model for her.

Crafty

Today Piper & I worked on a craft project. I found this really cute foam house at the craft store & thought it would be a good project for us to work on. She loved all the glitter & glue.

The finished project. She was so proud!

Our Tree

Ever since the stores started putting up their Christmas decorations, Piper has been itching to put up our Christmas tree. Yesterday was finally the day to get the job done. After Piper got up from her nap we got right to work. She loved every minute it!
