Christmas was full of festivity! Baking and frosting cookies with Grandma....

Although it looked like Halloween....it was Christmas complete with princess costumes and Batman pajamas. Santa hit a home run!

Christmas in Oshkosh...and snow and snow and snow

Sam's First Haircut

At first he wasn't the biggest fan of the scissors or the spray bottle....

Then came the lollipop, and the smiles...

Gingerbread House Day

Today was Gingerbread House building at Preschool.

Each kid was given frosting and graham crackers and a milk carton and invited to decorate the house of their dreams. Here is Maura's.....complete with a Marshmallow snowman, Dots edible fence, and an ice cream cone Christmas tree.

Tree....Lights....ACTION!

Mom's Birthday

Happy Birthday to mom....cake brought to you by Dad & Maura

Princess Heaven

Dreams do come true in Disneyworld (as much as I hate to admit it)

One by one, she rubbed elbows with the best Disneyworld has to offer....

She told Cinderella what she had for lunch....then had her photo-op

She moved onto Belle....who got to hear all about her favorite nummies....
then she got her photo-op

Then onto Princess Aurora (that is Sleeping Beauty to the rest of you)...who was entranced by Maura's love of pink and ability to talk about it for hours.

But this was only the beginning....the best of the day was Maura's fairest and most favorite princess of them all......none other than....appearing in her famous Grotto....wearing a couple of seashells and a tail.....ARIEL

(PS Grandma thinks that Ariel is dressed kind of "slutty"....
she is a mermaid, mom--give her a break)
