Tuesday we finally got our Christmas tree (yeah I know only a week and a half before Christmas)!  We have never put our tree up this late but we've had  lots of things going on!  Addy's Birthday, put the house on the market (do you know anybody who needs a great starter home??) and went to Pigeon Forge for the weekend!  Addy loved playing with the lights and helping to decorate the tree. 

Hippo singing and dancing to "I want a hippo for Christmas"..she loves it!

putting stickers on all our Christmas cards

One of Addy's favorite things to do is stand in her stander and watch it snow.  She did this a bunch last year since we received so much snow so naturally Thursday that was what she did for a while. 

Since we were all snowed in Thursday night Matt, Stephanie and Mason came over for dinner and to try out our newest Wii game "Just Dance 2"  aka our NEW favorite game!  We have the first one but the second one is MUCH better!!  The boys weren't crazy about playing but as soon as they started smiles were on both of their faces and Steph and I couldn't get the Wii remotes out of their hand.  Here is a video of James and Matt dancing to "Proud Mary"...enjoy!

James has been wanting to make and decorate Gingerbread cookies with Addy so Friday night was the night!  She had so much fun decorating the cookies and did a fantastic job!  We didn't have a Gingerbread Man cookie cutter so a tree had to do but they turned out very cute!
