Pretty Pretty Princess

Emily was lucky enough to receive the game Pretty Pretty Princess for Christmas from her Autie Nancy. I had heard of this game but was unaware how lucky we were not to have it in the house...yet. It is a board game and the players move around the board collecting pieces of jewelry as you go. Emily LOVES this game, particularly the earrings. She will do anything to wear the earrings..... even over the crown, which should be the most coveted item as there is only one.
She just won this game as she has all the jewelry!

A Marrying Dress!

We celebrated Christmas with Grandma, Grandpa, Ricky, and Kendall this weekend. They all gave Emily wonderful gifts but the favorite had to be the Ariel Marrying dress and veil!

Emily and Peaches

Dougy was babysitting Peaches the other day and we were lucky enough to get to play with her at our house! She loved pushing the shopping cart around the house and she liked playing with the babies (which we have no shortage of).

Music by Emily and Tia

The outfits.....the instruments...the singing.......too bad there is no volume on this post....

Before and After

On December 3 our kitchen was gutted and today it is finished (well, all except staining the doors that hide the washer and dryer). It is quite a transformation, hard to believe it is the same home..it is amazing and we love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
