Matt brought in the Christmas ornaments last night after the kids were sleeping. As soon as they knew what was in the bins there was so much excitement that I just went with it, in spite of the fact that the sun was just coming up. Opening the ornaments was always a joy for me...and I think that it was for them as well.

Halloween

Ella was very certain that she should be a black cat with pink in the middle of her ears and a black tail. Who knew that the craft store sells giant pipe cleaners that look just like cat tails?
