She also received fist place overall She had so much fun I’m so glad she has found something she enjoys!

The Tradition Continues for 2014

The tradition continues! We had another great year picking out a tree and making cookies! The girls both lasted a lot loner than previous years and the weather was so nice that we didn’t even need snow boots!

I’m assuming our little cheese ball was telling a great story since all eyes are on her!

The girls both made some pretty perfect cookies and even dad joined in at the end to add a few to the mix.

Getting the tree in the stand is always easier when you have a Marshall to help you out.

The girls had a wonderful time continuing on the tradition. Addilynn (who has attachment issues) loved the tree so much that it was a week long process preparing her for the goodbye. The last day right before we had to take it out of the house we all had to hold hands around it and say “spirits” to the tree. We sang songs and moved in a circle around it and then without tears we said goodbye! It went pretty well considering this is the girl who cant throw away paper scraps because they are special to her! Paisley on the other had didn’t seem to care at all.
