Ry and His Daddy

This boy ADORES his Daddy!!!

Small Group Christmas Party

Is any Christmas party complete without decorating cookies???  When else can you have so much fun with red and green icing and loads of sprinkles.

The Coletti's rocked the appetizer with these cheese reindeer creations!

On their own, the kids re-enacted the Christmas Story.  It was AMAZING and absolutely precious.

Can you tell who Ryan and Madeline are. . .I've got a donkey and a Mary.  LOVE IT!

Me Babies

Absolutely LOVE this picture of my babies cuddling together on the couch.

Odds n' Ends

A Visit to Chapel Hill.  Looking around the gift store proved more exciting for the kids than Matt and I expected!  I think Lilly Grace thinks Rames is alive.

Loving the new hair!

Madeline and her sweet girl friends from Deerstream on the day before Christmas break.

Madeline and her good friend Madeleine at Disney on Ice.  It was a girls night and we had an AWESOME time!

Getting Manis and Pedis with GiGi!

GG spoils us TERRIBLY when she's in town.  What an awesome time us girls had together, as we were pampered.  Madeline loved sipping her soda in her message chair and getting pretty designs on her fingers and toes.

Julius' Birthday

Great Wolf Lodge with GiGi

Dear GiGi came to visit us in the beginning of December and surprised us with a trip to Great Wold Lodge.  It was wonderful!  We played in the water park all day and the following morning.  GiGi treated the kids to tons of games in the game room and we had McDonalds for breakfast.  It was such a special time.  It was fun to watch LG, as she LOVED the water.  She would be blue lipped and shivering, but did not want to come out.  Madeline and Ryan were best friends, following after each other, giggling and chattering.
