1 Weekend, 3 Christmas Parties

The party season has begun!

This past weekend we had the Baader Christmas (my mom's side of the family does a party a little early each year so the whole family can see each other during the holiday season), the Sloan Christmas (for the WHOLE Sloan family, a fun get-together with my dad's aunts, uncles, cousins and everyone's families) and a Christmas party at one of Grandma and Grandpa Janisch's favorite places. Enjoy the party pictures below!!!


Baader Party

A lot of dancing! Blurry I know, but look at Layla's face! She loves to dance with Shea and I'm pretty sure he feels the same way.



Present time! It is SO nice to have new toys around the house, especially with it being cold outside we have been playing and playing and playing inside. So happy to have some new items to play with :-)



More Shea and Layla....they enjoy Joan's bedroom...A LOT! Sorry Joan for leaving the destruction behind!


And here is a sweet one of Joan and Layla (Cindy Lou Hoo as Mark called her...love it!)

Before we left for the next party, we took a picture with Grandma/Great Grandma Baader. Thanks Grandma for letting us overtake your room for the day!

Thanks for having us Joan! I know we are the guests who almost never left :-)
Now onto the Sloan Family Christmas Party.

The Janisch Family


The McDonald Family (and a cupcake)




Here is Layla and myself after Layla's 1st of two pretty major spills that night...and did I mention her 18 month pictures were the next day? Luckily all the bumps and red marks had gone down by the next day, poor little thing!

And lastly.....apparently, Layla only loves Santa from a distance!!!


Sunday Christmas Party!


Not another Santa!! This time Daddy and Layla kept their distance!


Kelsey holding Layla, or trying to! Kelsey did coax her in with a cookie a few minutes later!



And cute Mr. Truan. He will be one this weekend, can you believe it!?!


I hope everyone had a good weekend! I will be posting again soon, I had a busy but fun past couple days. We had a very special visitor!

Morning -

What great photos and memories! I had a blast dancing and playing " garage " with the kids. It was what Christmas is truly about - love, family and laughter, and of course, the thoughtful prezzies .

Love, Super AA
