Merry Christmas 2014

Elena's First Christmas! And her First Birthday (well it's still a few days away, but we had a little celebration in Buffalo) What a success! She had a blast and got a ton of great stuff- including a new toy box  built by Papa Jerry for her birthday! She even slept in the pack and play- so well I woke up to make sure she was alive! And she was..don't worry. Her brother made her a blanket for Christmas and her grandmothers spoiled her rotten. She still has more presents to open on Tuesday and one more little birthday celebration. The kids met some new cousins - Abby and Amanda from Lewiston, and some new friends, Spencer and Catherine from Utah. Also met some great aunts and uncles too! Very fun time in Buffalo this weekend. and a great Christmas with the Albanese's and the Kwasnowski's!

Gingerbread House building

So tonight, we built our annual graham cracker gingerbread house. (Eventually we will do the real gingerbread, but attention spans are short so it's not worth the effort). Winner is the first person to spot the turtle about to eat the ooze that will turn him into Donatello....

Christmas Tree Collecting

Sunday, we met Jay at A Pizza and More in Tully, NY for lunch and then went to get our tree!
Wyatt was very excited, but even more excited to get it home to decorate it. He seriously spent at least an hour helping me to decorate. His sister promptly removed all the pretty glittery ones on the bottom, but has since lost interest.

November..oops. Forgot all about it!

Been a super short month....crazy! Can't believe it is December already. I will just post some of the highlights....as photos.
