Thank you Santa Baby!

At the end of my last post, which I had forgotten I had even mentioned this, I cried out to any Santa listening about my camera woes, not expecting a darn thing just feeling the need to cry but low and behold......I GOT A BRAND NEW NIKON D3000 FOR CHRISTMAS! Do I not have the best husband in the world. I never expected to be getting an SLR any time in the near future. I am so excited. So be looking for some great photos of my adorable girls! I know my dad is just as excited as I am.....I am sure he was tired of loaning out his camera all the time!

Thank you momma for the BEST NIGHT EVER!

Last night Olivia and I went to see the Nutcracker downtown. Her first time to see it! It was a fun night out just the two of us. She loved it. She said it was better than Mary Poppins which we had just seen a couple of months ago. I think not but she loves dancing....though they danced in Mary Poppins...even on the ceiling!
Shortly after it started she did lean over and say are they ever going to talk! Now she knows there is no talking in ballet's. She thanked me all night for taking her, which was really sweet.

As we sat down (behind railing of course) I was thinking I wish we were all her as a family together, but there is no way Emily would have sat through that! At intermission Olivia bought a ballerina ornament for the Christmas tree and had her pictures taken with some of the cast. She loved that! We decided to change seats at intermission since there were some available without obstructed views. Those seats where much better Olivia told me. She also told me, "if you see my eyes closed it is just because I am resting them, I am not falling asleep." It was a late night, as it was the two previous nights before......oh well, tis the season!

p.s. I know the pictures are blurry....but we don't even want to go into the the whole camera story. I just hope some Santa out there anywhere hears my camera cries!
