HaPpY 3rd BirThDaY!!!

We strated the week of Aubrey's birthday with a school party. Evan wanted to read the book for her class and she brought in her friend Jingle to help. Jingle barks, sings, and cries along with the book as you read. The kids thought he was a riot!
On Aubrey's birthday we decorated the downstairs for her and we woke her up with instruments and singing. At breakfast she let us know that she liked our decorations, but for her next birthday she did not want the band or singing. Thank you Aubrey, we will make note of that.
I purchased a doll house in the summer and it has been waiting in our attic since then for this day!! Aubrey has been asking for a doll house since November and she has been waiting to see if she would get one until this day! She unwrapped all of the accessories before finding the house and all she could say is I don't believe it, a doll house, for me!
We then had the requested breakfast of waffles!
Then opened a few more gifts from others... here are the picks Aunt Bethany; we also have video :D
Aubrey also received a tinkerbell dress for her birthday and well, she was in it all day!!
We ended the day with a movie and popcorn of all flavors!
I still can not believe our baby is 3!! She has blessed our lives beyond measure and we truly can not wait to see what lies ahead for her! HaPpY BiRtHdAy Aubrey, we love you!

A Little Bit of Snow

Aubrey awoke to a little snow last week and we IMMEDIATELY dressed and went out to play!
She then proceeded to tell me that it was Christmas and Santa was coming so she could open gifts. Oh the things our daughter thinks of!

Geneva Christmas Walk

We enjoyed the Geneva Christmas walk on Friday. We were all bundled up (some were a little obsessive with how warm they wanted to be). We walked and saw a parade, the large Christmas tree lighting, ice carvings, and a live nativity. The night was so much fun! Aubrey is at just the right age to take it all in.
She was memorized by the parade.
She had lots to talk about and expain to us anout the various things going on.
5,4,3,2,1...
The live manger scene was at a church across the street from ours. We however knew the owners of the farm animals and Aubrey took advantage of that...
We also spotted some pretty cute reindeer antlers that we HAD to try!

Thanksgiving Feast at Preschool

I just LOVE Aubrey's preschool! For Thanksgiving they had a feast of their own. Each child made a vest and strung a colorful noodle necklace. Miss Donna gave them Indian headbands and they sat together to enjoy a feast. I helped in prepping and serving food for the day. It was ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE! I am so thankful to enjoy these moments!!
Enjoy some pictures from our day!
Getting ready...
Miss Donna and one of her famous hats!
All the kiddos enjoying their meal.

Cousin Sarah's Party

We celebrated Sarah's 2nd Birthday before Thanksgiving. She is getting big TO quickly! Aubrey enjoyed the day with her cousins and of course the cake!!
The calmest my child has ever been while presents are being opened!
Cousin love!
I just had to put this in for all of you who love our crazy kid!!
She is ready for the beach!
