christmas party

i am way far behind in blogging...as you probably know if you come to my blog on a regular basis...
so...
back on dec 17 me and the girls (matt had to work) went to my bff's moms house for a christmas party!
we do this every year...it is my bff and her family, her mom and dad, and her brother and his family, and then me and my family...and 2 other friends and their families....
its always such a good time! we have yummy food and kids running, laughing and playing everywhere!
heres a pic of the kiddos, minus the 2 littlest ones....

arent they a sweet bunch of kids!!!!

me and my girls in front of the tree....

finley must have been telling me something...then she got my camera and took my picture (turned out pretty good for a 22 month old!) and then a pic of me and danika before the party...

santa and mrs clause came to the party! the kids WERE SO EXCITED! all except finley! she cried and screamed and could get far enough away from him! he called each person (kid and adult) up one by one and we all sat on his lap and he gave us a gift...but finley...she wouldnt sit anywhere near him as you can tell by that first picture! danika sat on his lap and didnt care one bit about him...or the candy cane he gave her or the present either....boy, does she have a lot to learn! then i tried to get a pic of us three with santa and mrs clause...you see how well that went in the two pics on the right!!!!

BUT....finley sure did l.o.v.e her ice cream sundae that the kids ate!

we sure did have fun!

i cant wait for next year to do it all again!
