It's January 2nd! Can you believe it? It feels like we just had Thanksgiving! I guess that's the holiday season for you...one big blur. At least I have some precious pictures of my family to remember this Christmas. We had a wonderful time being with friends and family over the past couple of weeks. Molly LOVED opening presents this year and really loved Santa coming to her house! She made Christmas so much fun for us!
We first started the festivities with our annual "cookie making party" with Shannon and Madison at my mom's house. For those of you that don't know, Shannon is my long time BFF from 7th grade so we've been doing this for awhile! It's fun that we both have daughters now so our girls join the tradition. Shan and I made a few cookies and talked a lot, while our girls made gingerbread houses with my mom. I think they were a little more productive, but we got a lot of catching up done so it was a great day. Here are some pics...

THE MASTERPIECES! :)
On the 21st, my birthday, we went to Bass Pro Shop to get our pics with Santa. Molly was not scared of him at all, however she wasn't overly excited either. When I asked her what Santa said to her, she said, "Ho, Ho, Ho!" I asked for it I guess....lol.
On the 22nd, we celebrated with the Scott side of Joel's family. It was the first time in a long that time, that the whole family was able to make it. I think everyone really enjoyed visiting with family.

We were celebrating Nan's birthday too!

The 23rd we watched Christmas Vacation and wrapped presents. Love. That. Movie. It doesn't feel like Christmas until we've watched it for the year.

Ok, well that's all for this blog. I'll try to finish Part 2 tomorrow night, but I'm getting tired and OSU is tied at half time in the Fiesta Bowl so I want to start paying attention to the game! Go POKES!
Talk to you tomorrow night, hopefully.
Love, Jen
