Ringin in the New Year!

We did what we always do on NYE, we made snacks, played board games and watched the ball drop. I made a 2016 sheet cake and homemade hot chocolate to add to the celebrations!

Lucy, My New Red Beauty

So grateful to my mom for giving me one of the best Christmas presents I could ever hope to get! The first thing "Lucy" made today was an egg not bundt cake with a cinnamon frosting glaze. Yum! Lucy sure does love to bake!

Christmas Fun at Emi's!

Makin' Christmas Cookies :)

Night of 1000 Candles

 So much beauty to behold! The magic of Christmas sure does live here.

Christmas Wreath Pizza

This was super fun to make. All we did was take a roll of store bought pizza dough, then we shaped it into a circle shape, and cut a hole in the middle using a can. Then we spread store bought pesto sauce over the dough. Then we covered it with our favorite toppings and baked it according to package instructions. It turned out really festive.

Christmas Cozy

Love from our family to yours for a joyous holiday season!

Christmas Lights Cupcakes

I had Christmas bulb edible decorations, and a green icing pen. I placed the bulbs on the cupcakes, then I connected them to look like lights with the green icing. Cute!

Santa Cupcakes

I used a box mix for the cupcakes, then I made the icing using half stick of butter, 1 tablespoon vanilla extract, 4 cups confectioners sugar and 3 tablespoons of milk. Then I dipped the tops into red sprinkles. Then I added mini marshmallows for the beards and mini chocolate chips for his eyes. The noses are made of hot tamales. Turned out cute!

Zipline Zippy!

Our little Zippy loves to entertain us with his shenanigans!

The Countdown Is On!

25 days of Christmas! Magic in the air!

Christmas Joy Comes in Small Packages!

H's 4th Birthday Party and Parade!

We had so much fun celebrating H's birthday with family and friends! We first had the party at glow in the dark mini golf, which was soooo much fun for all the kiddos. Then we went to the Christmas parade later that night! The kids got lots of candy and saw Santa. Oh what fun these holiday's and birthday's are!
