Happy Birthday Brianna!

It’s really hard to believe Brianna is already 4 years old! She has changed so much in the last four years and has really turned into a wonderful child, who is caring, polite, and an all-around great girl!
We had a celebration for her yesterday…a Princess Party for her friends in the morning…complete with a treasure hunt, pin the heart on the princess, and they even made castles out of sugar cubes! And a family party in the evening with supper and cake!
Brianna was so excited about the decorations on the table and thought it looked so good. She was thrilled with the cake (it looked so good!) and just had a great time! It was so cute because every present she opened was `just what she always wanted!“
Everyone came dressed as a princess or prince…they were so adorable!

Anika wanted to make one (actually, let me correct that – she really just wanted to eat the sugarcubes!)

It`s also Coleton`s second birthday today so a very happy birthday to him! We had a little cupcake and present to help him celebrate too which he was excited with!
Other than that, we have been so busy with Christmas activities and parties and celebrations lately! The kids have been in their glory and loving all of the fun activities, candy, and special treats!
We went to a Santa Claus parade in Regina with Laura, leaving Jack and Sierra at home with grandma and grandpa. It was really cool and the girls loved it!
A couple of weeks ago we went to a flower conservatory for a Little Gardeners program. The kids had a lot of fun looking at the plants, playing in the sand box, and planting their own flowers. It was a neat program and a cool place to visit with them when it`s cold out!
(Sierra was sleeping so she missed out on it!)
We`ve also decorated cookies (again, I decorated, Brianna sort of helped and Anika ate the icing and sprinkles!)
This time Sierra was too young, but still had fun playing!
We have decorated our tree – both the girls really enjoyed helping (and Sierra slept!)
Here`s Anika eating the decorations (notice a trend here!)
Once we were done the tree, we all settled down and read `twas the night before Christmas`
We had a Christmas party for my work at the Science Centre. The girls loved exploring the Centre and playing. Brianna was thrilled with Santa and sat on his lap to talk to him and tell him what she wanted. Anika would just cry and shout `no, no, no, no` if he looked in her direction or she got near him! Sierra screamed!

And last but not least, a parade in McLean with all kinds of floats, more candy than you could imagine and a winter carnival complete with Santa, a fish pond, lots of crafts and arts tables, and baking!
The girls waiting for the parade.
What a great couple of weeks and only more fun to come! Merry Christmas!
