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

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!

The Holidays are upon us







Happy Days, home for the holidays...after a couple of months of EVERY week travel for Edens Mommy to Orlando, definitely ready for some downtime at home. Here are some pics as we decorate for the holidays and have Eden pick out her first Christmas tree with her Mommy and Daddy. Boone Hall Plantation had a very nice selection.

We hope you all have a wonderful Holiday Season, out love to you all both close and further away...

Noahs Birthday Party












Well this years party at Noahs, a lot less eventful, thankfully. Remeber last year at his bday party Miss E broke her arm. So less eventful is good. It was a chilly
but fun day at the Sullivans Island Fire House. The kids watched a film on fire safety got to play on a fire truck, then enjoyed some park time, pizze, cake, and finished off with a pinata.

Enjoy some pics from the day! And thank you Auntie Tina for the super cute and warm pink jacket. You are the BESTEST in the world.
