Brooke singing Let it Go

This is from Christmas morning, but I am just now getting around to sharing it on here. Enjoy.

Frozen

If you have girls, you have probably heard about the new Disney princess movie Frozen.  We decided to surprise the girls and take them to see it on Thanksgiving. This would be Brooke's first movie in a theater.

I didn't think it was a good idea to take Anna Grace, but Trey talked me into it.  He thought she'd sit in my lap and watch the movie.  I told him he'd be in charge of her if she would not sit still or takes too much.

Brooke was great and LOVED the movie.  Her eyes were glued to the screen.  Anna lasted about ten minutes. She would not sit still, so we let her stand up.  She wasn't too loud, but we has to take he out when she started dropping fruit snacks on the heads of the people in front of us. Trey agreed to stay out in the hall with her. He tried to bring her back in a few times, but would have to leave after a few minutes. Oh well.  Guess we can try to take her again in a few years.

Brooke has been singing the songs from Frozen non-stop.  Obviously, Frozen was a big theme for Christmas presents this year.  Brooke got the CD and an Elsa dress, Anna got a Frozen purse, and both girls for Barbie sized Anna and Elsa dolls and little click it dolls.

Boo boos

When Brooke was a baby, I nagged Trey about baby proofing the house. He insisted that our house was fine and we could watch her when she became mobile.  Much to my surprise, Trey was right.  Brooke never got into the cabinets and never fell onto the fireplace.

So Anna Grace came next and I had no concerns about the house.  Well, in the last month Anna has hit her head on the corner of the coffee table and the fireplace.  I feel so bad.  Luckily, she didn't cry very much with either injury. But she has had some nasty bruises.  The picture below is from her encounter with the fireplace.

Church Christmas party

We had a great time at our church Christmas party in early December. We had a great potluck dinner, photo booth, games and birthday cake for Jesus.

Sister love

We are having a good time on our Christmas break.  The girls have been pretty good and love playing with their new toys.

Christmas dresses

I has so much fun dressing the girls for church during December.  All of their clothes are hand-me-downs or bought at consignment sales.

Santa pictures

Our Santa visit and pictures was pretty easy this year. Our daycare had a night where they had Christmas activities for the kids including pictures with Santa. We only had to wait in line for a few minutes and got some great pictures of Brooke with Santa. Anna Grace wanted nothing to do with Santa. She was fine waiting in line. But once she saw Santa, she started screaming and crying. Santa did come stand next to her so we could get a picture.
