Fun Christmas Time

Here are some of the fun things we've been up to around here.  I'll be honest we've been super busy and a lot of things I didn't get pics of!!!  I love Christmas but I think I need to start celebrating in October just to do all the fun things I want to do!  I made the girls Grinch Punch(thank you Pinterest-my addition!!!) I surprised them with the drink and the movie.  Mac had been wanting to watch it but all we could find on tv was the new version, she's like me and likes the original.
Chillin'!  I made it this time with vanilla ice cream and kiwi/strawberry soda.  I'm going to try and make it again(if I can squeeze it in) with Sprite(Mille's favorite soda) and lime sherbert!
Mille went and found her Grinch! Love her!!!
Woohoo Twingle came to visit again.  Mille was counting down the days and was looking for him everyday.  I love how much she loves Christmas.
He was in the Dora house with all the Barbies!
That silly guy!
Made a coffee/hot chocolate bar.
Ok the girls have begged for these cheese puffs from Target.  You would think they were made from gold!  I always say NO WAY we need those like a hole in the head.  Well guess who showed up with this huge container of cheese puffs......
Twingle!  She decided to take a bath in some and give the girls the rest.

Twingle left a prize for the girls.  I didn't take a pic of the package he left but it was a letter and a bag of seeds(Mille said they looked just like Reese's pieces hmmm) he said to plant the seeds in a big bowl of sugar then to take turns sprinkling salt over the sugar.  Oh he said it only worked if you did it TOGETHER as a team.  It said if you were good and believed then something would grow.  Look what the girls found the next day!  Rudolph cookies!!!!  Oh my
Our Advent calendar said pancakes and hot chocolate for dinner, sounds good to me.  Rudolph pancakes=yummy & cute!

Mac in her nude leo!  This was the day of the Nutcracker!!!  She was a beautiful angel in the Nutcracker.
Mille bug and Mrs. Penson after the 3rd grade program.  My baby did a great job and I was super proud!!!

Mille and friends
Mac is 11!!!  Tried a pinterest idea but it was a fail, balloons were supposed to fall when she opened the door but they kept falling out of the bag.  Oh well she got a good laugh and Camille and I trying to do it.

I made her birthday cake pancakes and sparkling cider.
Who doesn't like drinking out of a fancy glass? :o)
Mille made a toast to her big sis!
Triple chocolate cake for Mac!  Sadly she wasn't feeling great on her b-day, really bad allergies hoping it's not a sinus infection.
11 candles is a lot to blow out!
This is my favorite!!!  Mille was helping me find Mac's bday present under the tree and then she was helping me seperate all the gifts(Cherry Christmas and Holze Christmas) she realized that I'm the only person that doesn't have a single present under the tree.  Who else is that way??  I'm sure I'm not the only mom that isn't represented under the tree(Craig did give me a present- he can never wait for Christmas!!!  He gave me the new iPad!!  He just never takes the girls shopping for me and I think Mille is going to do something about that!  Love her!) Anyway she thought that was just wrong and went straight to work making me this present.  The funny thing is she wanted me to open it RIGHT then so sadly I still have no presents under the christmas tree but I do have 2 awesome coupons to bath and body works. :o)
