If I must say so myself, Kayla got everything she wanted and MORE for christmas!! Being the only girl she is very spoiled and being the mother of a little girl I can't blame it all on her. I just can't pass up all the cute dolls, barbies, clothes, jewelry, little tea sets, dress up clothes......... it's just so fun.

The calm after the storm.Don't ya just love the mess after all the gifts are opened! Christmas was fun this year, although chaotic very fun to spend time with family and friends and enjoy the season.

So this was the year I told myself I was "splurging" to buy cute christmas stockings for our family. I have had cheap dollar store stockings since we got married, so this was the year I was on the lookout for "cute" ones. I had my eye on some in Pottery Barn magazine until I ran across these at Tai Pan Trading. I just love them. So now I can quit complaing to Chad about our ugly stockings. So silly, but once a girl makes up her mind she wants something-she wants it!!

Kayla is so excited for Christmas. Everytime a toy commercial comes on t.v. she yells,"I want that". Oh how early they learn. I must admit it though, shopping for a girl can get you in TROUBLE!!! All the dolls, play furniture, dress up clothes- I just have to tell myself STOP! already!!Sure is fun though. Hope you all are almost done shopping and if not, have fun shopping in the crowds.

Christmas Time
