Year-End Party @ Pati's

As we have the last 3 years, we had our Annual Christmas Program at Pati's this year to watch the kids sing and perform and to celebrate the end of another fabulous year! We continue to be so grateful to Pati and Jessica and all they do and have done for our sweet girl!

Pretty normal these days :)

Such a happy girl!

Kenna and her Jess-i-ta!

You can tell it was a LONG day/night and Kenna got a little emotional - Pati to the rescue!

Luvs from Pati!

Me and my sweet girl! Such a blessed year and looking forward to what 2014 has in store!

Sprinkles the Elf Came to Pati's!

What a fun treat for the kids at Pati's this week!!!  Sprinkles the Elf came to visit!!!!!

She read the story of the Elves and why they come to visit each Christmas...

Such a great story teller!

They colored pictures and made letters to send to Santa!

Sprinkles and Kenna

BIG hugs!!!!

Finishing their letters and getting ready to throw them in the special/magic mailbox!

What a cute lil mailbox!

Such a fun day full of  Christmas jammies and Sprinkles and Elf!

We headed back to Macy's Breakfast with Santa With Grandma Karen and Auntie Erica and it was just as fun as last year!!! It's been the best lil tradition Grandma could have started :)


Annual Breakfast with Santa!

Getting her nose painted to look like Rudolph!!

Cutest lil Rudolph I've ever seen!

Grandma always brings a little present to kick off the holiday cheer!

Kenna wasn't so sure about Mrs. Claus, but she sure is nice!!

And here he is!!!!  She was so adorably excited to see him this year and tell him all about her year and how good she's been!

Contemplating what to ask for :)

Mama and her reindeer

Just look at the love in her eyes :)

No words - this sums up the morning 100%

Lots of decorating for Christmas!!!

It was especially fun to decorate for Christmas this year in our new home!!! Lots of new traditions and things that we will look forward to in the the years to come!

As usual - Ken gets her own tree in her room!

Adding the finishing touches :)

LOOKS PERFECT!!!!!!  Love our home!

Kenna was so excited to see it all (a lot of it was done as a surprise to her to see when she woke up!)

A fun Santa towel we can now use from Grandma Sheryl


Goofing around at the mall with mommy - staying in the Christmas spirit!

A Conky and Sprinkles sighting :)

My FIRST movie in the theater - FROZEN!!!

We took Mackenna to her first movie - one that we had no idea would end up to be a favorite of all of ours! FROZEN was a classic DISNEY movie and we were so proud of her as she sat through the whole thing mesmerized and wanting to come back!

Kenna in her Anna dress posing with Olaf!

Waiting patiently to go in...

SO EXCITED for the movie to start!!! :)

Cinnamon Pancakes!

We had a fun morning making cinnamon pancakes for Daddy - they're his favorite!!!

Kenna LOVED adding the cinnamon...

...I mean LOVED IT!!! :)

"Here ya go Daddy, just riiiiight!"

Annual ELF Breakfast!

Conky the Elf came back!!!!!! As our tradition always goes, the day after Thanksgiving, Conky make his appearance and this year, he brought his sister, Sprinkles with him!!!!  LUCKY GIRL with a double dose of eyes watching out to fly back and talk with Santa!
