The Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

The holidays are in full swing around here.  We have been really busy and loving every minute of it so far.  There is still much to come but here's a little catch up of what's been going on.  
To break it down, we've had our first snow of the season, Thanksgiving, tree trimming and Christmas decorating around the house,
winter recital and...drum roll please...Bob is back!  We officially welcomed back Bob elf this weekend and Lily Grace couldn't be more thrilled!!!!

First Snow of the Season and of course after about three hours, we had to call LG to come inside. 

She did manage to talk her daddy in to going out for a while

Thanksgiving- this year Lily Grace made the cornbread for the cornbread dressing.  

This year for Winter Recital, Lily Grace played Bouree by Handel along with her teacher, Mr. Caleb.  She did an amazing job! 

Saturday morning Matt and I woke to squeals and calls to hurry upstairs and bring the camera.  Apparently, Bob thought it would be funny to wrap Lily Grace in her room.  She crawled under to get out because she wanted to enjoy his handy work for a while.  

Once downstairs she found Bob on the island bowling.  

Bob also brought a letter from Santa as well as two more envelopes.  Envelope 1 held a candy cane scavenger hunt and envelope 2 held a surprise for finding all 6 candy canes Bob had hidden around our house.  Her surprise was a gift card for bowling, one of her new favorite activities.  Guess what Gracie is treating us to over Christmas break?

Saturday night, Lily Grace enjoyed running through Bob's  work to get to bed.  

On Sunday morning Gracie woke to find Bob snuggled into one of our guest beds.  He even brought Gracie a new pair of Elf pajamas.
