Pre Holiday Festivities

Here are some pictures from the days prior to Christmas.  We had lots of fun holiday activities to share pictures and videos from.

This is from a cookie exchange that we went to.  The hostess had a Santa Claus come for the kids.  As you can see, Ellie was a little weary.

She did warm up though.  Santa asked her what she had done that was nice for someone else.  Ellie's answer?  "I am nice to my brother Tommy".  Real cute.

The Kilroys had us over for dinner and cookie baking.  Michael, Jack and Ellie had a grand old time, especially when the sprinkles got broken out.

You can see Ellie starting to eat her green sprinkles (she had a green mouth for the rest of the night).  Please note Jack digging into the pink ones as well.

Further photographic proof, look at Jack down the sprinkles.

Mikey and I had a special night with Ellie.  We took her down to the Plaza for dinner and a carriage ride.  Our horse's name was Bill, and he actually raced another horse down Nichols Road. Ellie's favorite part?  "The blue lights"  .

Ellie and I made a gingerbread house.  She was really into it at first...until she realized she could eat the candy that we were putting on the house.  Things fell apart rapidly after that....a lot of our supplies were eaten.
