Fun with Flour

All morning Lexi and I spent making cookies for the GLARM's (Garcez, Llyod, Abbate, Ramos, McVey and steven) Christmas. She did everything; helped make the dough, rolled the dough, cut out the cookie shape, and decorated them. While rolling the dough, she thought that the flour was sugar. I kept seeing her sneak a lick with the flour...YUCK!!

What a masterpiece!!

Of course she had to eat one!!

She always says, "Yummy in my tummy!!"

Polar Express Train Ride

For Daddy Daughter Date night, Chris took Lexi to Old Sacramento to experience the Polar Express Train Ride. She enjoyed the show inside the train, as well as Santa at the North Pole. She was so excited when Santa came inside, but when he posed to take a photo with her she froze up like the snow outside!!

Day at the snow park

Today we took the kids to the snow. Lexi absolutely loved it and Gavin could give or take it. We took Lexi down a large hill on a sled, which she thought was a blast!! On the way up the hill she kept stopping to eat the snow, which took forever to get to the top!! This was a hit, we will go back before the snow is gone!!

Just the four of us

We got dressed up in red to take a few Christmas photos.

They turned out perfect for that Christmas card of ours.

We hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas. May you all be

blessed with good health and fortune for 2009!!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

Love Chris, Stacey, Alexis and Gavin

Too pretty to eat....but we did anyway!! It was yummy!!

The disaster to visit the big man.....

On Monday we went and took family pictures and then after we took the kids to see Santa. We had prepared our self for the worse, since we thought that Lexi might cry being unsure of him.

Well that wasn't the case at all. We arrived ten minutes before they open, and we were the fifth person in line. After thirty minutes of waiting they finally announced that there camera was broken and they were on the phone with technical support.

Soon after Santa arrived and he sat in his cozy chair. A few more minutes go by and they tell everyone that they will let everyone sit on Santa's lap and take pictures with there own camera.

Well of course we didn't bring our camera, so Chris pulled out his camera phone and took a few shots of the kids with Santa. Thank God for the camera phone!! We are not sure if we will take the kids back since the lines only get worse as it gets closer to Christmas.
