Abi has been such a help decorating for Christmas. Here she is putting window clings on the oven.

Abi went shopping with us the other Saturday and was quite obsessed with the “balls” on the tree. I would have been too if they were almost as big as me!

Then we headed to our ward Christmas party… Abi helping herself to the chocolate mousse and then a candy cane. I LOVE this photo! Her eyes are GORGEOUS!

Abi has discovered the flour and sugar buckets and loves to move them and sit on them. Just her size.

Last week, my bbsitter bailed on me so Abi went to school with me. All my classmates were so good to help out while I danced. Thankfully my teachers were lax since it was the last week of classes. Abi was SO good (better than normal) that we treated ourselves to a doughnut and a mint brownie! Yum!!!

Dan and I attended a formal dinner for the Ballroom Company. I searched high and low for the perfect dress and I found one! It was stunning and I felt stunning. The best part about it, it was only $30.00 (originally 140.00 for those who are interested)!!! Oh shucks I scored big time!

  • Keeping my family fed! :)
  • Searching for some winter boots… church and everyday
  • and MORE!!!

Maybe I will get some Christmas cards sent out… um...may be not.
