Avery

Last Friday we had our first solo sleep over with Avery. Emily was beyond thrilled and Avery slept in Emily's room too!

My favorite photo is the one below. Aunt and niece both sleeping and holding hands in the car. Beyond priceless!

Famous.......

On Sunday we went to the YMCA for Breakfast with Santa. It is amazing event and Emily LOVES it because there are soooooo many art projects for the kids to do. The BEST part of the day, for me, was when Emily got off Santa's lap. She said "Mommy, Santa knew my name. He said "Emily" I heard him ask other kids their names, but he knew mine!!!!!!!!!"

What Emily doesn't know....is that she is famous, at least in the YMCA world, and everyone knows her name!

one of the many art projects

face painting was a new addition this year and Emily could not have been more thrilled

Santa

On Friday night we went to Downtown Concord for Midnight Merriment. Emily was happy to see Santa and ask (again) for a stuffed girl elf. Emily still believes she can only ask for one thing so I don't tell her any different.

Forgot About this One!

This is the face of a little girl who just learned she is going to Disney World!

Mike and Jack

On Black Friday we did not spend the day shopping, we were lucky enough to spend the day with Mike and Jack, Emily's cousins! They are 8 months old now and so much fun! They are very mobile, using their arms to crawl around on their bellies. Jack is very busy and Mike is a little more mellow. Emily had the time of her life!

Hard to get one photo with both boys looking

Scrapbooking

On Wednesday Evie came over and she and Emily scrapbooked their Disney photos. They each had their own book and tons of coordinating stickers and they worked very hard. When they were done they got very silly with some dancing and jumping around.

Thanksgiving Feast

Emily's school had a breakfast feast on Tuesday morning. I went in to help and had a great time.
