This afternoon, the girls met up at our house for our Third Annual Christmas Party! What a difference a year makes in each of the girls let me tell you (Read year ONE and year TWO by clicking on the number)! They were old enough to keep themselves entertained for the most part, so the mommies got in some quality talky time around the table (something that rarely ever happens)!
The Girls
Top: Avery and Camille, Lola and I
Bottom: Candis and Camden, Susie and Jayla
Lola was ready to show off all of her toys this year and attempt to share them with her friends! The party started right after her nap, so she was all smiles and ready to go anticipating everyone's arrival!
The Little Girls
We decided to go handmade this year and gave away a homemade clock (check out the tutorial here)! I had to go with colors that each of the girls had in their rooms, as we didn't know who might be receiving our present (we draw names once we get to the house, we tried a white elephant this time, but it was pretty pointless because they are little and just want to unwrap a present, they could care less about taking someone elses...never again...wait, maybe when they are 15?)!
Lola unwrapped Jayla's present and it was a chalkboard/whiteboard easel with all the fixings to go with it! She loves it! With a little rearranging it has found a new home upstairs outside the craft room and is accompanied by her brothers, who has the exact same one!
Before each girl left they got a little parting gift which included:
Snowman Sippy Cup, Mittens, Sucker, and Magic Reindeer Food

Merry Christmas from all of us girls!!!
