I love a white Christmas! There is a fresh dusting of snow outside (which is perfect since the old stuff was starting to look kinda dirty and gray). It is early Christmas morning (7:30ish) and our house is still quiet. I'm going to enjoy this "we sleep in because we don't know any better" year while I can. :) I figured while I have a few minutes to myself, I would share these pictures.
Santa came to visit Plain City the weekend after Thanksgiving. Both Amelia and Penelope did better than last year (as in, neither of them cried!).
I'm not quite sure what happened with Penelope. She was fine the whole time we were in line. Then the minute she was handed off to Santa, her face went to the "blank stare" look. But hey, at least we got a little smile out of Amelia! Who knows what next year will bring (smiles, tears, refusal to sit on his lap...) but one thing I am certain about, we will try for the nicer, little more real Mr Claus at the mall. I'm kinda disappointed in how the photographer set up the lame blue curtain behind most of the shot and barely managed to get the tree in the picture. Paul says I'm too picky considering it's Plain City and cost us all of about $10. Of course, he also agreed that we'd try somewhere "nicer" next year. :)
And since Santa was kind of mediocre this year, I thought it would be fun to try to have the girls pose in front our tree. I think Paul took close to 40 or 50 pictures. We got about 3 or 4 "good ones". Thankfully, those good ones really are good.
Checking out the lights and ornaments..........

And my absolute favorite......
I don't think our girls could be much cuter!
