Happy New Year!

I've been away for some time, but I'm back!

First, let me say that Christmas this year with the girls was absolutely magical.   I know it sounds a little hokey...to say it was magical, but it was.  More magical than Disney, more magical then Fantasy Island, more magical than the friends and family sale at Sephora.

My two lovely daughters fell madly in love with all things Christmas this year and we fell in love right along with them. 

The first thing they did when they woke up Christmas morning (after they checked to see that Santa did indeed show), was to investigate and see if the cookies and milk were gone (they were).  Next we had to traipse outside in the freezing cold to make sure that the reindeer had eaten the carrots (they had).

Next they played with their ginormous (and sure to fall apart by New Year's) Disney Princess Castle, complete with new princesses, (crowns still attached) for about 45 minutes before they noticed that there were presents under the tree.  Amazing.

My favorite part had to be the night before when my husband sat in a chair by the fire and read The Night Before Christmas to them.  After explaining that Santa would not be burned by the fire,(he is after all magical), it was off to bed.



My eldest asked, just before falling asleep, "Mommy, do you think I will still get a present even though I picked my nose today", classic.
