Christmas Wonder

A couple of my favorite pictures, I can't put my thoughts into words.

November Wrap-up

Hard to believe but November is behind us with the flip of the calendar to December today.  To round out the month and get caught up, here is the randomness that filled in our month.

I love this bunch of cuteness...

I enjoyed a few bottles of yummy wine...

Someone was up to no good...

It got a little chillier...

Two sleeping angels.  I went to check on Arabella before going to bed and I found that Max had joined her.

We found a frog before it went to hibernate...

And Max is perfecting his slide moves.

My Bookworm

I love seeing Arabella read and I love capturing shots like this.

My Favorite Time of the Year

I love this time of the year.  I love to decorate the house.  I love to see the magic come alive through Max and Arabella.  It really is a special time.  Arabella loves to decorate too.  She gets so excited when the bins come out and she loves helping find the perfect spot for each special decoration.  Max is starting to understand it and had fun helping as well.

We picked out our tree and it was ready to be decorated!  Max liked to take off the decorations as we put them on.  The three of us had so much fun.  I love to remember the special memories that I have with the ornaments when I unwrap them.

Cheers to Christmas!

Here Comes Christmas!

Waxhaw does a lot when it comes to community events and Christmas time is one not to be missed.  They light up the downtown area with lights and have a pretty big holiday kick-off!  It really helps to get you into the holiday spirit.  We bundled up and ventured out to join in the fun.

They had an area with "snow" for the kids to play in.  Max and Arabella enjoyed what was left of it...it really was a bit more like ice than snow.

Enjoying some hot cocoa!

We even got to see Elsa and hear her sing "Let it Go!"

Garden Experiment

We had a few pumpkins and gourds left from Halloween/Fall decorating and we decided to do an experiment with them.  Arabella wanted to plant them in the garden to see if they will come up next Summer.  We got out the mallet and went to work trying to crack them open.  It was a tough job, but we finally did it.  Once we opened them, we planted them in the garden.  And now we wait to see what happens...

Caught You...

If he was a little older I think I might be a bit worried that he was emptying out the liquor cabinet....
