Christmas Snapshots

Tonight, Cooper's school had their annual Christmas play.  This year's theme was "Christmas Snapshots".  The story told the story of the birth of Jesus in snapshots throughout the night.  Cooper was a sheep...the cutest sheep ever born!

Hard Work

We had our annual Christmas Card photo shoot over the weekend.  After 2 days and almost 100 pictures ~ this is what we came up with.  Cards have been ordered and they'll be in your mailbox soon!

Family Fun

Just a few snapshots of our Saturday.

Cooper finished off the milk jug!

 Cooper also helped us put up the outside lights ~ Reagan was too busy playing school to come outside

 After lunch, we went to the movies to see Dolphin Tale with our friends the Thayers, then we ate dinner at Nagano and topped it off with dessert at Rita's!

 When we came home, our Christmas lights were on for the very first time this year!

It's Beginning to...

...look a lot like Christmas in the Sandidge house!  I took the day off from work today and trimmed the tree ~ I wanted it to be a surprise to the kids when they got home from school.

 and, I hung "the stockings with care"!

 I even decorated Reagan's tree for her room!

 Cooper was upset that he didn't have a tree in his room...until he saw the Santa that was watching him

 this has nothing to do with Christmas, but wanted to show you Cooper's new piggy bank he got for his birthday

 he thinks it's another car to play with!

Towel Twins

Showing off their matching towels after bath tonight!
