Elise and Mommy making Christmas shortbread cookies... we made a movie for a contest and won $25 to RW&Co :) Even if we wouldn't have won anything, we had a GREAT time!

December 2nd - First Haircuts!!

Isaac's first hair cut at 11.5 months old. He was a very good boy... no crying at all... just kept trying to see what she was doing.






The final product:



Elise's first hair cut, at 2.5 years old! She was an angel... as usual. She didn't move at all, just did exactly what the hairdresser asked of her.


The final product:



After the haircuts, we went back to Grandma and Papa's house... to pick up Papa....



And then Grandma and Papa treated us to A&W... what a great day we had!!!

It's been too long...

Okay... I've been truly neglectful. I haven't posted in ages... and there's no excuse really... but I will say that I didn't spare much computer time in December. I was busy working on my Mom's blanket... which I'm still working on, but that's another story. So lets get caught up with all of the festivities in December!!

Happy 1st Birthday Isaac!!!

Now this is how you do cake....

Our new closets!!! Merry Christmas! :)

For those of you who may not know.... for Christmas this year Mom and Dad gave us a HUGE and WONDERFUL gift.... His and Hers custom built closets (by none other than our family of professionals.... seriously... they should start a business, they'd make a killing!).

Here's a before and after shot... the before one is missing our 2 dressers that had been in there... we had already moved them out when we remembered to take the pics... I'll have to photoshop them in after.



And here's the after.... talk about an amazing transformation!! There are only some small finishing things to do now... like painting.




We are so happy with them... they are even better than what we thought they would be! We're so grateful.... Thank You Mom and Dad! and Special thanks to Uncle Elymer and Uncle Cliff too! You guys all did a great job... and with no major injuries! :)

p.s. Elise keeps asking when Uncle Elymer is coming to colour :)
