Christmas Eve

Christmas was at my aunt and uncles this year and it was so nice seeing all the family get together. The food was good and the presents were too many. Kinsley has a great time playing with her cousin Alicia. She is actually my first cousin, but is only a year older than Kinsley - I guess that is what happens with you Mom has 6 siblings....years apart!

Gingerbread House

Well, we have been trying to make our Gingerbread House for - forever! But we have all been sick and hopefully it will leave us soon....It seems like it won't!

We finally made the cutest Gingerbread house ever....because Kinsley helped! She had the best time (eating the goodies as we went) and drawing in all the wrong places as well - but that was what was just so stinkin cute!

I had made the front walk way and I was very proud of it...Then I see Kinsley adding some details to it...She put a whole bunch of candy in a line and said - "Look, I made a caterpillar on the walkway!" Who knew I would think it was the cutest thing ever - so creative...so unique - So perfect!

Mom helped us and she was very serious about the whole thing.





She was very serious - just like BeBe!




Evidence of her eating all the things on the house!

This is the first one I had ever made as well...so we think it by far the best!
See that cute little caterpillar

Kinsley added the red blood splotches all over the snowman to the right

Jesus Loves the Little Children

Kinsley's new favorite song is Jesus Loves the Little Children. She misses some lyrics, but it is just too cute not to share! Enjoy!

Craniofacial Foundation Christmas Carnival

It was another successful party with the CFA. It was really the best one yet. A lot of work was put into it, but our efforts paid off. Mr. and Mrs. Claus were there with a beautiful backdrop for pictures. Tons of wonderful food and table areas were set up for eating. 2 jumpy inflatables which were a huge hit. 3 craft tables for the kids - Kinsley loved this! Clowns and magicians walking all around.
Kinsley really enjoyed socializing with everyone and did not want to leave - but fell asleep as soon as we left the parking garage.

She was scared...she is sitting on a box...and making sure neither touch her...It's a step up from last year - Lots of screaming last year!






I was working the front table...Kinsley was helping me...I would ask their last name and mark the people off...When it was slow...Kinsley grabbed the pen and looked at me and said, "What is your last name?" IT was precious! We had a lot of fun, just the two of us!




Kinsley had not been feeling great before the party - but managed to have a great time.

Mary Claire wanting to tell Kinsley HI!

Kinsley and Ella Grace, Kinsley's 'friend' She kept saying this is my friend.
Some how I only got the girls picture...but there are 4 parents from Dr. Sargent's office that put this together along with Terry....I managed to get the girls pictures, but not of the boys pics from the Moms! We must be biased with Girls!

Kinsley making reindeer food and being very serious about it.


Robby to the left donated his time for taking pictures for the kids and then uploaded the pictures to his website so the kids could get their pictures with Santa for free!

Joe also, helped set up and clean up as well as worked the party. He got tons of service hours for volunteering his time! He was a big help and it was nice having a guy around during break-down and set up time!

Santa gave out a blinking nose and antlers.....

The big slide!

Kinsley on the jumping thing....She loved it!

At the end, she was too tired!~
