The most wonderful time of the year!

Yay! I love this time of year! Festive lights, The smell of sweet pine, happy people and cars that look like reindeer (I am still looking for that kit by the way!) I love the Holidays! I am especially excited this year because it will be Lola's first Holiday experience! We went last weekend and picked out our very own Christmas tree. We went to a place in Lakeside that had a petting Zoo and Hay rides... Lola was super excited about the animals. We came home and got the tree ready for decoration. My family has a long standing tradition of having an ornament for each person in the family... Our tree first started with two... one for Steve and one for Me. Then we added Juno and Coco and this year we have Lola :) So we went and picked out her first ornament! We came home and decorated the tree. But not before Daddy got a hold of the mistletoe and started giving everyone kisses! He melts my heart! Oh yes... can't forget about the gingerbread house! Steve and I make a gingerbread house every year and we showed Lola how to do that this year too. Fun times! She has had a lot of fun shopping with me and is especially excited to give Daddy his presents this year. I can't wait how to show her how to make Mommy's favorite fudge!
