Six days till Christmas!

Since today is six days till Christmas I needed something to do,

I was walking around my house....

Than as soon as I walked into the living room I saw what I could do, Mom had left her markers out in the corner and the were all alone, so I decided to make some Christmas cards.

Mom also left the mints  out so I of course had a little snack,

 my first one done! :) Than I began to make some more.....

 All done! now where to hide them.....

 I found the perfect spot under the tree and under the tree skirt

 shhhh! don't tell. Have you ever hid anything before Christmas?

Seven Days Till Christmas!

Since today was officially seven days till Christmas! I'm really excited :) so i decided to wrap some of the presents I bought for my sisters!

I chose to wrap Skylar's up last in that box was a set mom found of animals it has a sea horse and a couple of other things but I'm not going to tell you!

  I signed my name vary carefully hoping to be vary neat 

                                   

 Than I put the present under the tree with lots of  care not dropping it, Because if I did I would probably hurt the gift.

 Than I looked at all the presents under, I was the first person to put gifts under the tree I was vary proud, than I heard the door silently open..........

It was Skylar! she was seeking up on me, luckily i had already wrapped everything but I still got mad, I chased her around until mom eventually broke us up. I vary glad she didn't see everything i was wrapping, Have you ever been snooped on while wrapping gifts?

it's beginning to look alot like Christmas!

 Hello everyone! can you believe that it's only 9 days till Christmas?  I'm vary excited! And I think it's beginning to look alot like it! My sisters, mom and I went looking for a tree today since we didn't have one yet and we got a beauty! here it is all finished!

 I just love Christmas it's only my 3rd Christmas with my family and Skylar, Julie and Rebecca's first, Kanani came on the exact Christmas day last year so this will be her 2nd Christmas :)

 Here I am right next to the tree i felt so Christmasy with my polar bear sweater on

 Here is one of my favourite ordainment on the tree it's a nutcracker mom loves nutcrackers and i think i do too! i went to the store with her when we got that and i saw one that was short and chubby! i almost spat hot chocolate through my nose laughing at him I begged mom for him but she wanted the nutcracker ordainment more. well i must go until next time, do you have a favourite ordainment if you do what is it?

Still here.....
