Dressed and ready for school in the midst of the holiday break!
first glimpse of santa

Some detailed gingerbread detailing
Though Harper liked Santa when he came to IMS...she was not a huge fan here(it was shortly after Santa came running out of a parade right up to her to say hi)
Decorating the tree and loving the season!

As Paisley called it, we are riding in our "two horse sleigh" to get the Christmas tree...taking the wagon ride at Battenfelds

The girlies sitting and reading together in one of their favorite places...the bottom of the stairs!

Paisley was having a fondness for Sound of Music...and here she is at bedtime dancing away...

Happy Thanksgiving at Captain and Gayle's house..
