Week Before Christmas 2010

We have had a very eventful week.  I will post some fun stuff...spent the week with Larissa and Arianna which was just GREAT!

Manuel and Veronica came over one night and we played dominos (Mexican, International or Cajun?)  Had fun!

Thursday, we made Christmas cookies....Arianna is loving this!

And they wait and wait for the cookies to come out of the oven...

All done!   They really enjoyed frosting and sprinkling the cookies.  Lari is practicing the "Snow Ghost Chocolate Pie" Story!

Janet Lambe passed this story which is a tradition in her family and Lari can now read, so she will read this to us on Christmas.

Dad took the girls home on Thursday even and they will all return to spend the night here on the 24th & 25th.  We are looking forward to that!

Until then....Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to ALL!
