12.25.11: Merry Christmas! {128}

Another amazing Christmas morning :)

12.24.11: Happy Birthday Audrey! {127}

This idea came from Pinterest and I'll definitely be doing it for each girl on every birthday :) Hard to believe that 3 years ago I didn't even know if Baby Burns was a boy or a girl...and look at her now! Definitely the best surprise ever!

12.23.11: Christmas at Grandma's {126}

Chris got me an awesome gift- the Kindle Fire! I've had it for a week now but have barely had a chance to play around with it. I can't wait to download some books!

12.22.11: Audrey's 3 year pictures {125}

I took advantage of the gorgeous weather we had and took pictures of sweet Audrey Cate. It was a great way to spend the first day of winter break! I just followed Audrey around, snapping away. She really liked walking down the hill in our front yard, then to the tree line at the street, then all the way back up the hill (aka "mountain.") She loved looking back and seeing how far she had walked. I'm so happy with how they came out! More here.

12.21.11: Butternut Squash {124}

Abigail loved it! She kept grabbing fistfuls and shoving it into her mouth. So cute! So messy!

12.20.11: Crinkle Cookies are Back! {123}

I love these cookies from Panera! I craved them when I was pregnant with Abigail but they're carb count was way too high...not this year!

12.19.11: Cocoa for my class {122}

I didn't want to wait until Wednesday to do something special with my class. So I decided to serve them hot cocoa while we watched Charlie Brown Christmas. The kids needed a little break in our routine and they've been so good with Winter Break approaching. I was setting up while they had recess and a bunch of them wanted to help...so a few of them poured the packets and a few of them stirred. I'm definitely doing this again!
