...is it me you're looking for? (haha...that was a little Lionel Richie joke for my sister)
As you can tell, I took a little break from blogging. We had a busy Christmas season and for a few weeks after I felt completely wiped out! We also visited Todd's parents and my nieces in Michigan, which was a blast!!....but involved the whole packing, unpacking, and laundry fun of traveling.
Of course we baked lots of cookies and watched millions of Christmas movies! We visited Bass Pro Shops...which honestly was not as thrilling as I had hoped. Here were a few other things we did:
We went to Old Spaghetti Factory for dinner and enjoyed the lights downtown. On the same night we mailed our letters to Santa!

| We had lots of fun dressing up in Christmas clothes! |
 |
| We went to Christmas at the Zoo and Evie was a Jr. Dolphin trainer, she LOVED it! |
The kids worked hard and were in a Christmas musical with their classmates. McKinley had a speaking part and he did great!
Each one of their classes decorated a themed Christmas tree for a contest as school. McKinley's theme was Indiana and Evie's theme was Dr. Seuss.
We had lots of fun with Elf on the Shelf!
I did something I have always wanted to do and wrapped each kids presents in their own paper, I liked it and plan to keep on doing it every year. Can you spot the gifts from Santa?
They were less than thrilled to have their pictures taken on Christmas Eve in their new pj's.
I hope you all had a blessed Christmas season! We are toying with the idea of listing our house on the market....so I hope it's a busy 2012 full of change for us!
