Jingle

Our elf Jingle had a fun time visiting us during the month of December!

 This visit from Jingle was priceless! Emmy confessed that she doesn't always use soap to wash her hands and that Jingle left this note for her!

Christmas Eve Children's Mass

 This year Keelin sang in the Children's choir and she also took up the gifts during Mass. 

Christmas Dresses

 

Every year my grandma Planck buys the girls new Christmas dresses.  We let the girls open them early so they can wear them to Christmas Mass.  The girls look forward to opening these dresses!  They both loved their dresses this year!

Girl Scout Brownies

We have done quite a few fun activities this fall during Girl Scouts.  The girls designed plates back in September and they arrived right before Christmas break.

 

 

 

 We have also made cards, activities, and games.

Ritzy's Fantasy of Lights

Keelin had a bunch of pizzas to delivery from a fundraiser at school, so we drove through the lights after we were done delivering everything.  The girls love being able to sit in the front seat with us as we drive slowly through all the lights.

 

Christmas Program

 Emmy was dressed like a reindeer for her preschool performance!

 

Keelin's 2nd grade class (my class) sang "Angels We Have Heard on High" and "Do You Want to Build a Snowman".

Parish Pictures

We had our family pictures taken after school and before the school Christmas program. 

Britta and Jason's Wedding

 We drove up to Detroit for my cousin Britta's wedding.  She got married at the Colony Club in downtown Detroit on Friday evening.  It was absolutely beautiful!

Keelin's 8th Birthday

Keelin turned 8 on December 1st! 

 We (14 of us) went to dinner at Old Chicago to celebrate Keelin's birthday.

 Keelin has been asking for a mermaid tail for sooooooo loooooonnnnnggg!  Her mamaw and papaw got her one for her birthday!  (I am secretly super excited so I don't have to listen to her ask for one ALL THE TIME anymore!!!)

She can't wait to use it in the pool this summer!  Keelin love love love love loves it!!!!
