Is is already Christmas... Where has this year gone? I can not believe this. Decorations went up no problem, way ahead of schedule on gifts, getting Christmas card ready.... This is not a normal December for me- but I'm getting excited!

Ava's sleepover

Ava turned 8 and wanted a sleepover... It was such a fun night! Ava had it all planned out from start to finish. Jayla Humble, Ashlynn Little, Brooklyn Davis and Ella Grace Bussemas all came tot the party. First, they ate pizza, had a cupcake competition, opened presents, got in the pj's, danced to just dance 3 wii, watched a movie and sometime around 3am fell alsleep... oh and a silly string fight- painted nails... What a happy little girl I have. I am so blessed.
