2012 is Around the Corner

As we were taking down our Christmas decorations, I couldn't help but look back and think of how fast the year has flown by and all of the changes. Last year, as I was taking down our tree Adeline was not quite two and I was pregnant with Scarlet. So much can change in a year. I am so grateful of Andy being so supportive as we made the decision for me to take a leave as an Instructional Facilitator to pursue me being home with the girls full time. So, as I take down our decorations I can't help but to wonder what 2012 will bring.
This year we added an advent calendar of mittens for a countdown to Christmas with an activity hidden in each mitten.
One last look at our Christmas tree all decorated. I love that the majority of our ornaments have been gifts and they are all so special. I just love seeing the girls' first ornaments as well as Andy & I's first Christmas ornaments. Plus, it is so nice to have special ornaments for our beloved pets. A great way to remember.
Our Christmas tree is almost ready to go outside. I am sure a few little critters will have fun playing in the branches.
I must show a close-up picture of Scarlet's stocking that was sent to us from her Great Aunt Jacque. Such a keepsake and we are so thankful of the time she spent to make it so special. We look forward to many Christmas memories with this darling stocking. Thank you!
