December Festivities - picture overload!

What a month! Finally this week, the cold has arrived. BRR! Also, our favorite time of year. So much to do, but it's all in the Spirit of Christmas. I love hearing the kids talking about Jesus' Birthday, and everything else we love about this time of year. Driving around looking at lights is something we do almost daily, even it's just around the neighborhood.

But, before all that, December is special for another birthday! Liliana Grace just turned three! It does not seem like three years ago that she was born. Crazy! Silly girl came two days before she was scheduled to come - I should have known then the independent little girl I'd have!

We had about a week of celebration - Alex's family and my parents came over for cake and pizza about a week before Lily's birthday - and then on the 15th we celebrated at Disneyland, and on her actual birthday, the 17th, she chose Island's for dinner. The next days two of her friends came over and brought her a princess soccer ball! Perfect for my little soccer star!

Bella LOVES the characters at Disneyland (She even got to go last week on a special trip with my parents, overnight. They had TONS of fun !)

Lily was in complete awe of the princesses - she walked slowly towards them and just sat quietly :)

I have to say, one perk of going to Dland on a rainy day is the less than 10minute wait for the Princess pictures.
We also had dinner at Goofy's kitchen. Lily still wasn't sure about the characters, but Bella was totally into it .. except Aladdin! She ran and hid behind Alex. Too funny.

Birthday Celebration at the house...

That's all for today... lots more to come :)
