Ugly Christmas Sweater Day at Dresden Elementary

I had to borrow a sweater since I didn't have one....  Don't we look great!!

Big Night!!

Kyler invited Addison to spend the night, the went to Pizza Hut, to see the new Chipmunk Movie and then to his house for the night!!  They called me after the movie.. ( since she knew I was having a hard time with it....) I said how was the movie... he said AWESOME... I said you ready to come home.....NO!!  So of course he did great and had an amazing time!! The first thing he asked when he came home was when can Kyler come and spend the night here!! Tomorrow?? Geesh I guess it is already starting!! Kyler happened to go to the same preschool as Addison so they have been buddies for awhile!  We are lucky to have nice friends!!

Ayla asked if Ali could come and play since she would be alone, so her mom said it would work perfect so they pretty much played dress up the entire night. They were cute giggling and laughing, Adam got a good taste of a girls slumber party..haha... Ali is in Addison's class, and Addison's teacher said that Addison is very, very protective of Ali and really looks out for her. ( I never expected that) Ali and Addison act like siblings at school I guess, they really care about each other, but it makes sense they have been going to the same sitter since they were born and have spent a great deal of time together! Again what great friends we have!! 

Christmas cookies and more!!

This weekend we worked hard making buckeyes...

and several kids of cookies, Addison and Ayla were such a big help!! We had a great time doing it!!

Ayla had her first performance in Children's Choir today, Addison and Ayla are now both in Children's Choir and they both did a fantastic job!!! 

Avenue our Elf

Addison and Ayla wake up very excited EVERY morning to find Avenue, they eat breakfast and then go on the hunt for him, they both get such a kick out of finding him!!
