The Week Before Christmas

 We had so much fun getting ready for Christmas.  We made cookies, did the advent calendar, made crayons for cousins, drove around our neighborhood looking at lights etc. etc.  The Wednesday before Christmas our library had Santa there, so we got our obligatory picture.  Gianna had to be bribed again, but Elia was super excited about it.

On Christmas Eve I took Gianna and Elia out separately to buy gifts for each other.  Gianna picked out some hair clips for Elia and Elia picked out a Snowman tray.  Elia has her own Santa tray, which she called her Santa board and so when she saw the Snowman tray she got really excited that she could give her sister a Snowman board.
All wrapped!



Trying out all the toys first.  She was really excited to bring her own purse with money in it.
 This is what our tree looked like Christmas Eve- this isn't even Santa's gifts!
