holiday happenings

All quiet on Christmas Eve and a good time to share some December photos. 

Photo shoot for our holiday card.

 

Our Advent calendar kept us on track for lots of holiday fun. Baking cookies, watching Christmas movies, hot cocoa, seeing lights, baking treats for the boys old daycare, making gifts for their teachers, seeing a holiday play, attending their holiday school party, picking out toys for tots and more!


Here are some Creative Stash orders I worked on this month ...


These are the gifts I created for the boys teachers. They choose the crystal spacer to match their teachers favorite color and I printed a little gift tag that said "Thank you for your pearls of wisdom."


A visit to Enchanted Island at Encanto Park for some snow tube sledding and rides!




A visit from the Tohki Family!!! Aziz played while Jacynda the boys created their 2nd gingerbread house. 





 We wish you a Merry Christmas!!!

grandparent's holiday visit

My parents were for a long weekend visiting us for the holidays. They got to see our new home, take a ride on the light rail to the Tempe Arts Fest, visit the boys school for a holiday party, see Ethan's flag football tournament, watch a holiday play and help us build a gingerbread house! We really enjoyed them here. Here are some pictures of the weekend.
