Seeing Santa

       I've been putting off seeing Santa until we all could get healty enough to not look sick. Well we went yesterday. Emma loved seeing Santa. He was so wonderful. He talked to her, and told her the Night Before Christmas story. He was such a sweet Santa! Maggie liked him as long as I was holding her, but as you can see, when I sat her down, she screamed! She did like the candy cane he gave her.

Cookie Making

     We went over to Mom's (AKA Nanny) yesterday to make Santa some Christmas Cookies. The girls had a blast! The definitely had tooooooo much sugar! But they had fun! Emma loved squeezing the frosting on, and Maggie loved shaking on the sprinkles. Needless to say, there were sprinkles everywhere!

Hershel

Daddy got an early Christmas gift last Friday. We got a new English Bulldog Puppy! His name is Hershel (as in Hershel Walker). So far he is a great dog. A little fiesty! But he is great. He actually slept all night last night, which was very much needed on my part! The girls love him, as does Matt.

Stone Mountain

Wow, it has been forever since i've been on here. On Friday Dec.5th I loaded up the girls and the camper and headed down to Stone Mountain. My Mom, Doug, Beth and Sidney all came later that day. We were going to camp for the weekend and go to Stone Mountain Park while there and see all of the Christmas stuff.  Well, It was sooooo cold! Maggie and Emma both weren't feeling that great. Turns out they had sinus infections (found out on Monday the 8th when I took them to the doctor).

But, we did manage to have fun. The train ride was a lot of fun! The skylift, not so much!!! I was a nervous wreck the entire time on top of that mountain!!! I was very happy when we went inside to eat. But was even more happy to be back at the bottom!!!

All Emma wanted to do was make a cookie! They had little sugar cookies the kids could decorate with frosting and sprinkles. She loved that! Sidney did too! He did his happy dance while eating his!

It was a lot of fun, but we were all ready to come home on Sunday. I think we've decided we won't be doing anymore camping in cold weather until the girls are older and can handle it a little better.
