Christmas Memories

The month before Christmas fly by in a flash. Off to stores and activities we would dash.
I'm afraid this best illustrates what we felt like.
Eva met Santa at our Ward Christmas Party. She was not scared one little bit. In fact she really wanted that candy cane.
We tried out some new recipes for treats this year. The first batch of cherry divinity that Abi and I made was gobbled up so we had to make a second batch; how sad. Abi and I also made eggnog marshmallows, interesting but a little over powering. Abi made haystacks, yummy. And then the kids and I made and decorated this fantastic Lofthouse style sugar cookies. Delish!!!
Leah is the vision of her favorite princess Rapunzel in this new dress, crown and wig.

Princess Squinkies were another huge hit with Leah.
Abi's pig hat from Eva was her favorite present.
Tal spazzed out over his new Lego Harry Potter game. I think he had it beat within a week.
My little Meeks were super cute in their new outfits from Nana and Papa Fife.
We rang in the New Year a little early, at 9 o'clock, with our cousins and family.
Toot, Toot. Happy New Year.
Goodbye 2011 - you were a great year.
Hello 2012 - we hope that you are even better.
