May all your Christmas Dreams come true!--The Month of December

December just flew by this year! Isabel loves every moment of Christmas festivities...the lights, the tree, Santa, Baby Jesus, the crafts, the songs, and of course the cookies. Lillie this year probably got a little lost in all the hustle and bustle of the excitement. She does like all the lights-"Look, Look Mommy" as we pass the houses with lights, and of course Santa is a big hit for her. 

Love her dress-Its almost as big as the tree!

My big tree died this year..all of the lights burned out.

Christmas Program

Every year the Learning Tree Preschool host a Christmas program. The kids sing Christmas carols in Spanish and English.  It has been a real treat to hear Isabel sing...she gets all the word mixed up and twisted (very funny what kids think they hear).

"I promise Santa I have been really good!"

All ready to go see big sister sing her heart out.

 She looks happy here...but just minutes before she was crying.

I think she gets a little nervous about performances.

-The singing Duo...they had so much fun singing together!-

Visit to the Art Museum

The Corpus Christi Art Museum had a great family event for Christmas this year that celebrated Christmas trees around the world.  HEB sponsored the event and gave away free books and treats and had lots of arts and crafts setup for the kids.

 Texas Tree

The trees were setup throughout the museum and the kids had to get their "passport"stamped as they visitied each tree and learned to how that country celebrated the holidays.

 Enjoying the crafts

 Loved the glue sticks!

 Isabel could not get enough of Rudolph...Lillie was terrified!

 Christmas Eve

 Making S'mores with Daddy

 And of course Jaxon-Waiting for his S'more

I think Ronald ate all of the cookies!

As you can see...Isabel favors the Reindeer. She went for the organic carrots at the store.
