December fun

My nieces and nephew came over and we made some yummy sugar cookies. The kids were so messy, but they had so much fun .....

This month we got to go to Bentley's Christmas recital. We weren't sure if she would actually dance at all, since she just stood there scared out of her mind at the rehearsal, but she totally surprised us and did her routine full on. She was so cute, just smiling and having fun! Josh and I were so proud of her watching her up on that big stage in front of lots of people.

Me and Bentley before her performance. They did their dance to a Cinderella Christmas song.

Bentley and Great grandma Ludwig.

She's the one on the very right. Looks like she's doing her own thing.

The kids all sat at the front and did a cute finale for the parents. Then a surprise visitor came..... Santa and Mrs Clause. I wish I had a close up picture of her face. She was beyond excited when she saw santa walk in!!!

Waiting patiently to see santa.

Telling santa what she wants for Christmas....... A baby and a bike!!

We celebrated my moms birthday! My dad asked me to make her a cake! I'm still very amateur, but I think it turned out pretty good!

Me, my mom, and my sister got together to make our neighbor gifts. We made some cake pops and some "SANTA"tizer. We had fun doing this together!
