Santa

We went to go see santa at Snappys where you can just take your own pics instead of spending a ton on one picture. Brie loved Santa and she went up and told him that she would like a soft Rapunzel doll that she can sleep with. This is funny becasue I have no clue where she got this idea but she has stayed with it and hasnt changed her mind the past few weeks. So tody I went online to see if it exists and found one on the Disney store. That isnt the big present she is getting from Santa but I figure that is all she asked for so It better be there too Christmas morning

Moving on, So gigi not so much Santas friend, she cried when we handed her over and Brie just looked at her and kept going shhhh shhhh you have to tell him what you want for Christmas. Tonight we asked Brie what she thought Gigi wants from Santa and she said "nothing because she didnt tell Santa what she wanted"

Ugly Sweater Party

This weekend Sara hosted an Ugly Sweater Party. I have never been to one so I didnt quite know it was suppose to a Christmas looking sweater so me and kacy didnt quite fit in but we both did look super Ugly. We found them the day of from the thrift store. They were 3 dollars but just happens to be half off day...SCORE. Kacys bro Kory was nice enough to watch the girls with us so we got a nice night out together with no kids to worry about.

In addition to the ugly sweaters we also did a white elephant gift exchange. We brought a VS pink robe and a naked Santa shower curtain lol. And ill tell you our gifts were tame compared to some of the other things. I went away with a Sex guide book that is bigger than the bible, and a "hot penis" game, like hot potato it has a buzzer count down kinda deal. Thank you sara for both of these lol. Some other gifts were "the golden banana" the thunder tumbler car and a tee shirt with Risos picture and signature.

It was such a fun night but we for sure drank too much and got a wee crazy. 3 girls and 4 bottles of wine later there was a sweater swap some inappropriate conversations and a plant knocked down the stairs...oh and also a proposal!! We may have got a bit out of control but man did I need that, some fun away from the kids!

Presents

I love wrapping presents! And why wrap if your not going to go all out! There are such amazing ribbons and paper now. I learned how to make bows a few years back when I wanted to put them all over our Christmas tree. ( now that I have kiddos though I stick with the fun kid ornaments and colored lights for them) Sometimes I have a hard time giving away some of my bows I make, lol but what good are they if im the only one who sees them. Any ways the point of this post is that my wrapping ways are rubbing off on Brie. She wrapped up her own gifts today when I was doing mine.....not bad!

Our Snow Lady

The good thing about rain on a winter day is that it makes perfect snow man snow! I had tried to make one last weekend but the snow woulndt pack so as soon as I went outside to the warm weather I knew it was time to get out and make one. Brie wanted it to be a girl and said she was going to put the flower on her head and that she needed a purse. Turned out cute and we will see what is left of her in the morning, I have a feeling we might be missing the nose when a hungry deer comes wantering through the yard

Sledding

We finally got out for some sledding this year! We went to the herron park hill. It was deffinatly hard work going up and down with the girls, but hey I guess I got a good workout. The girls only went from about half way up the hill, and me and kacy took turns going from the top on big black tubes. I was surprised how much Gigi liked it and didnt cry at all, not even when she would fall off backward when I was trying to haul her up the hill lol.....she reminded me of A Christmas Story in her huge snowsuite, cant even move.

My other project im working on....

These are the fairy homes I am making for Christmas, another thing I found online that I knew I could do and not spend 230 dollars on! yeah that is seriously how much each one cost on magic cabin. So if you read below while we were out shopping today in Bigfork I found dolls for the spring, summer, and winter! Ill just leave the normal base and then during different seasons we can decorate it to match. You wouldnt believe how hard it is to find dolls, the are seriousy any where from 60-100 dollars so I was soooo excited to find them tonight for under ten each. Yay decorating it will be just too much fun, wait this is supose to be for my kids right.....

Sleigh Ride and Parade

Tonight we went to Bigfork to take a sleigh ride, which turned out to be a waggon ride becasue the roads were too clear for them to use the blades, and then watch the parade. The ride was a lot of fun! We were the only ones in line so not only did we get to just go but he let Brie sit up with him and hold onto the horses. We went around town once and when we were pulling up at the end we say my brothers girlfriend and her kids who Brie is good friends with so we rode around again with them.

After the ride we were going to go get food before the parade but got held up in all the cute fun shops and I happened to find the perfect dolls I need to make this cute nature wonderland fairy house thing....super excited to start now that I have the fairies that will live in it

By that time we grabbed some quick cocoa and lined up to watch the parade! It wasn't anything too exciting but the girls loved getting candy and petting the lamas, oh and there was the cutest dog walking in it from the animal shelter named Ninja...such a cute doggy name I hope someone adopts him for Christmas!

After it was over we were all hungry so we skipped waiting for santa and started driving to go to pizza and on the way there santa was walking up the road and he came up to our car, we rolled down the window and he stood and talked to brie for a few minute. So cute her eyes were HUGE just staring at him. Then we had a yummy pizza dinner and came home.....

Both kids all tuckered out form our fun night so now I get to sit here with my hot totty blogging.....
