Today was supposed to be our big family ski day but we were snowed out since Sundance was closed due to power outage. So now I'm organizing and cleaning. Lame.

Thursday, Dec 23, was our Tucker family Christmas Party at La Dolce Vita. It was a lot of fun, like always. Monet was loving playing with all of the kids, dancing during the talent show, and singing to Frosty the Snowman. All the kids waiting to sit on Santa's lap.
Friday, Dec 24, we went to dinner at Sundance and then to the church for the Candlelight Service. Monet did really well for how sick she felt. This picture explains it all. She had/has stuff coming out of her nose every second of the day.
It's not like her to lay down in the middle of the floor while we open gifts. Poor girl. I miss her spunky little spirit.

Christmas pajamas.

I love this picture. Turn on Frosty the Snowman and she's happy as can be.

Dec, 25, Waiting at the top of the stairs.

Santa brought some great gifts. She loved her car.

And her oven.

Jessie that talks was a huge hit.

As well as Mr Potato Head.

You know it's Christmas when you get to eat a sucker for breakfast.

Going to Grandma Joannes for dinner.

Chloe and Monet.

We had a happy Christmas. Hope you all did too.

This means one thing. It's wrapping season. And I love it. And have you ever seen a sadder tree? It was wimpy to begin with. Then it crashed and broke some ornaments, and spilled water all over the presents. So we cut 4 huge branches off the bottom so it would fit tight in the stand. So now it's crooked, skinny, too short and missing the bottom half! Looks like next year I am going to have to leave the fire and hike in the snow to find the tree.
moral of the story is when you are lazy and send your husband to cut down the tree... there's no complaining allowed.

Isn't this holiday party (over at Gathering Spriggs) just gorgeous.

And good news for me, the 2011 color of the year has been announced and it's Honeysuckle Pink.

I love pink. It makes me happy. I don't love wearing pink but I love to decorate with it so it will be fun to see what starts popping up in this spunky hue!

Monet is in love with all things Christmas. Especially if it has to do with Santa or a snowman.

Every time we walk downstairs and she sees this Santa she says, "oh, Santa!", and as we leave to go somewhere, she kisses him goodbye. It's very cute.

...

She's obsessed with Frosty the Snowman. She has watched the 1964 tv version about 6 times in the last two days. I can't wait until we can build a real snowman in our yard. ...

I was in charge of Sunday dessert, so I turned my summer chocolate cake into Christmas cupcakes.

I wish it would snow every day until January 1st.

I hate that it is all melting.
