Decking the Halls

 

Emma's latest "say cheese" grin

 The Christmas things are up! It still doesn't feel right to me though. The weather has been rather warm, and we have only had one small snow storm. We had hardly any snow last year too. We could be in a big drout if we don't get lots of snow this year! We want a white Christmas! Although- I don't want to have to shovel it... ;)
Back to the decorations- we have been decorating the past few days! The girls love it!They jumped up and down shouting "Christmas! Christmas!" Okay- yes, I did it too ;) When we put the tree up Brett insisted on Christmas music, a lit fire, and hot cocoa. I said no to the fire though because it is gas, and it gives me a headache! It is really too bad, because it is so fun to have a fire. Some day, maybe we will have a wood burning one. Although- I would probably oppose to that too- since I don't want the house smelling like smoke, and eventually giving me a headache. haha. Wow- I am a party pooper. 

Tap!

Claire started tap dance class! She is so excited and has so much pizazz when she dances! So much energy and funny faces! She is a great dancer, and very entertaining to watch. She has got the moves, and I'm sure some day could do very well as a jazz dancer!

1st day of Ballet

Olivia started ballet class. She loves it! She has been so excited to start classes for like 3 years now! Her first real class I was watching her not expecting much. She has some real talent! She points her toes and stands up straight, and looks like a real ballerina! She is a natural. I see a lot of potential in this dancer!
