December Snapshots



She loves her Papa!

What a sweet night and festive way to kick off the first of many Christmas moments of the season. I got to wear both hats as mom and dance teacher. And once again, I'm reminded how amazing it is that I've been given the opportunity to be a part of what God is doing in the lives of these dancers and those they reach. I'm so proud of my girls and all of my dancers. (I'm not sure why I wore a name tag that said Ms. Sarah all night!)

There's just something about having some extra time with this guy on a Monday morning (especially after he was away for the weekend) that makes for a good start to the week. So glad to have him back home!



Christmas cards and a Christmas movie with my big girl!



What it really looks like when you try to get the two year old in the picture...

Another great night celebrating Christmas. I love seeing how excited our girls are in the weeks leading up to the event and then to see it all come together in a fun performance with their friends.

Juliet wouldn't even sit in the chair for the first five minutes. She wanted to dance and run around the whole time. She keeps us on our toes and alternating between our seats and the door.





When I was younger, Cory and I had a "thing" before bed. We said the same thing to each other every night before falling asleep.
J: Goodnight .
C: Goodnight!
J: Love you
C: Love you
J: See you in the morning!
C: See you in the morning!

I've told the girls about it, so finding this on my pillow the other night before bed melted my heart.


We baked lots and lots of gluten free Christmas cookies for all the special holiday events.



Spaghetti night!

Christmas movie under the tree with Daddy


What happened that my girl walked into her room a seven year old and came out looking like a teenager?

8th Annual Christmas Swap made a successful transition from cookies to favorite things this year! So thankful for each of these ladies and the ones in my life (near and far) who couldn’t make it. My friends have some fun favorite things!

Abby sang with her school at the mall.


Juliet wanted to hang with the big kids.


Ella hung out with Abby's teacher. We love her!

The girls disappeared for a while and then Santa appeared! (I’m pretty impressed with how they improvised!)

She is so proud of herself for being able to start the TV show all by herself.

What's better than this cute little unicorn dancing to some Bruno Mars?
