December 2014 - Part 2

My girls are getting obsessed with Tsum Tsums*, especially Jaina. 

Mara was nice enough to let Melody play with hers.

*stackable plush toys from the Disney Store. They come in 3 different sizes, but we like the little ones the best. It's also an app/game that we all love.

Melody is really liking all the Christmas decorations. I hang the 

stocking from Grandma Joan's house on the banister going up stairs.

We were first to host family for our annual Tolman family progressive 

dinner. It's always nice to get together and fun to have everyone at our house.

These boys are so funny and like to pose for pictures like it's going to be the cover of an album!

We headed to Lana's next. I had to get a pic with her tree. It's so big and beautiful.

They had a train going around the bottom of their tree. 

Jaina was so amazed by it and was loved making it go.

Next up was Morri's house. Melody was so entranced with all the trees and ornaments.

Family picture minus Jacob and the Boise Tolmans.

On the last week of school before the Christmas break Mara got to make a gingerbread house.

Jaina had her Christmas program. She was all fine and happy until I 

showed up. Then she became nervous and didn't want to perform because 

the stage was slanted. It took a lot of convincing and moving her 

to the end to make her okay to do the program.

She just loves preschool!

We made Melody a reindeer too, and amazingly enough, she didn't mind it.

Xander was in Choir this year at school and had his Christmas concert. He did a great job!

Here's Jaina's gingerbread house and tree that she made at school.

Melody is 13 months old and still isn't walking on her own, but she loves to hold hands and walk around.
