Our Lil Eden Belle





Our lil Eden Belle all dressed up in her Princess Belle glory.

Eden wearing her Belle Costume that she got for Chrismas, and she is going to have an official opportunity to wear it on Jan 27th, when she attends her first Princess gathering at the Rivertowne clubhouse that her Uncle Andy has gotten her a very special invite to. Of course we all expect by end of the festivities, our Eden Belle will be Queen of the Ball and all of the other Princesses at the gala will be her loyal subjects.

Another Fun Tradition













Way too many Christmas Cookies this year, and the waistline to prove it...but we have started a new tradition, dinner at our house Christmas Eve, and cookie decorating after din din. This year Tyler won the competition for the best decorated Christmas Cookie, Tina came in a close second, and Eden won for most original, Andy got most sentimental, not pictured due to the sensitivity of the subject and the fact that Andy took his cookie home for safe keeping or special eating! It said I LOVE TY, and we all concur. Aunt Tammy enjoyed tasting them all, and lil E got in on that action too!

Sweets for the sweets...

Christmas Party at school







Hanging with my BFF, Maddie at the school Christmas party, enjoying some snacks!

Edens Pretty Chrismas Tree







Pics of the Christmas tree from Boone Hall, decorated and ready to be filled with lots of presents for good little girls and boys...

HO HO HO!

GIngerbread House












Another new tradition, gingerbread decorating, Edens chef at her school was selling the real deal kits..the gingerbread and the frosting made from scratch, so it actually tastes yummy, and all of the candies were of course Edens favorite part of the project...and even some made it to the actual house. Close up pics courtesy of her Daddy, with the eye for artistic expression...also the gingerbread peoples expressions were courtesy of Daddy too.

Hope you all enjoyed sweet treats over the holiday, too many for us, so we are all going hardcore dieting after the New Year!

Edens Own Christmas Tree










Daddy thought Eden would enjoy her very own tree for her room and for all of her little animal friends. The Light sabre is courtesy of her Aunt Tina, from the Festival of Lights night that the three girls enoyed. Train ride through the lighted forest, toasted marshmellows, and a ride on a carosel, another annual tradition has been cemented.

Eden decorated the tree ALMOST all by herself, needed a little help with the star. Quite some interesting poses in front of the tree...captured for posperity..

Merry Chrsitmas to ALL!
