Recently... (playing a little catch up here)

*we had a little fun while the little ones were sleeping!



*attended Brian's work Christmas Party at a lovely nearby hotel. Hannah and Sam visited with Santa. Ellie, however, would not go within 15 feet of the guy!




*headed to the annual performance of The Nutcracker at the Paramount Theater in Aurora. This year Ellie and Grandma Giere got to join Hannah and I and we all had a wonderful time! The girls loved the stairway landing where they could practice their own ballet during intermission.




*celebrated Hannah's birthday...several times, several ways. :O)
#1 - Thanksgiving weekend in MI (see Thanksgiving post)
#2 - Giere/Johanik party at our house
#3 - visit to The Polar Express with the Wits, Glavach's and Hannah's little friend Cynthia
#4 - a celebration on her actual b-day with just our family (see previous post on the 9th)




*and we baked & decorated delicious Christmas Cookies!



Whew! We've been busy!!! AND, I love it! Such fun this time of year!!! Hope you're all enjoying this joyous season as well!
