Go Tell It On The Mountain!

Leah's preschool put on the annual Christmas Program with the theme of "Go Tell It On The Mountain" It was absolutely precious and priceless. Leah even got up to the microphone and spoke all by herself.











Getting ready to see Santa...

This year Leah was VERY excited to see Santa. She knew exactly what she wanted to ask for and we even wrote a letter to give to him. We decided to go to see Santa at McHenry Village instead of the mall. While we were waiting for our pictures, the "Elf" painted a poinsetta on Leah's cheek. It turned out beautifully!








The actually Santa pics will come later.



PONYTAIL!!!!!

Check it out! Leah's hair is finally long enough to put in a pony. I won't mention that it has to be soaking wet and falls out as soon as it is dry, but it is a pony tail nonetheless! If you have known Leah's hair history, you will understand the huge feat this is!




Inpromptu Snow Trip!

Jason got the urge to go to the snow one weekend, so with our friends, the Richardsons, we headed up to Strawberry to go sledding. It was super cold, but absolutely beautiful because of the new snowfall the night before. It ended up being a great day and we were a little sad to go home.






The two families....freezing!




Great buddies!


Leah loves to make snow angels.

Leah and I had a great time making cookies for the family cookie exchange and taco bar at Uncle Brad's and Aunt Tammy's house. Leah really enjoyed helping with this snowman cookies (made from Nutter Butter's).

Leah helped with this adorable snowmen! She couldn't wait to eat them!!
