Lilas first Christmas party

Lila had a wonderful time today at her first Christmas party. Henry and Arielle had us and another mama and babe over this afternoon. This morning Lila and I went shopping and got Henry a gift and some items to make a snack to take a share. We settled on decorated pretzel rods. When we got home I drizzled the chocolate and Lila decorated with sprinkles and crushed pecans. We wrapped the kitty notebook and crayons for Henry. Lila also found some blocks to give to the baby, Lewis.
At Henrys house Lila had so much fun. Henry had a felt and a real tree too. He had lots of fun toys to play with and books to read. Lila gave her presents to the boys. We made some fun ornaments. Cinnamon ornaments, glitter acorns (my favorite) and balls we swirled paint around in.
We checked out the new chickens they had just gotten and played in their big backyard. We both ate way to many yummy treats. Brown butter and sea salt krispy treats!!! Yummy! Lila started a bunch and I finished them.
It's so great to celebrate with friends thank you to Arielle and Henry for having us!!

Saturday morning at home

A morning a never want to forget. It was a typical morning at home, yet still such an amazing one. Looking into each others eyes, laughing and playing, snuggling and reading books, dancing and twirling. We played with bears and puzzles and babies. I love these days

Christmas Tree

Today we went to Elign Christmas Tree Farm. It was actually cold which made it feel like the season (opposed to the 80 degree plus temptress lately)
We took a short hayride to the trees. We found a nice little tree and daddy quickly cut it down. You (Lila) found a tiny tree you really liked and tried to pull it out of the ground! This made me laugh. They had lots of animals. You loves the big sweet hound and feeding all the goats (plus a llama, sheep, and donkey). We had bar b q on the way home and after nap time we added lights to the tree and a felt star we sewed.

Denver

We went to Denver for a week. Lila had a blast. She got to play with Élan, and all his toys! We got to visit Avery and play with Zoe and Rori. And we got to play in the snow too!
I took mostly pictures with the camera (I will upload soon) but here are some phone pictures.
Lila loved the snow.... We made snow angels and threw snow balls but Lila liked to eat it too!

Pre Denver
