Build A Bear

So grandma Sally promised the girls and Will she would take them to get a Build A Bear. None of them have ever been, so Grandma thought it would be a fun idea! The girls and Will loved it! They each got to pick what kind of animal and clothes they wanted for them. They had a blast! Its like a kid heaven there. We had a good time watching the girls get excited about everything there :)

Snow, snow, and what else...MORE SNOW!

So on Christmas night the weather decided to take a turn and snow like crazy for Charlotte, NC. Everyone was so excited for snow! I mean who wouldn't be when you don't get it a lot! We had a white Christmas and the next day we all took advantage of it and when out to have a snow day. My sister and brother decided to pull out my sister's old snowboards from Utah to see what they could do with them. Ya.....well it was a nice attempt. :) Anyways Blaine built a snowman, the girls just played in it...the boys had snowballs fights...pretty much all the fun and joyous things you can do in the snow. So anyways it was truly and HAPPY SNOW DAY!!!

Just like the movies...the story about a Chandelier...

So the story of the Chandelier. On Christmas day I was coming up the stairs and right when I reached the top I see the Chandelier in my parents formal dining room come crashing down onto the table. I scream really loud and everyone came rushing in when they heard the huge crash and me screaming. At the top of what we call the Romeo and Juliet balcony was little Sunny Miller. At that balcony you can reach the chain of the chandelier to swing it. Apparently Sunny had been swinging the chain and down came the chandelier. Fortunately no one was standing there and the table had only gotten a few little scratches. Some of the lights busted on the chandelier and it bent a little, but it was all fixable! So thank goodness no one was hurt. But as far as Sunny...she will never live this down when she is older :)

Christmas Morning Fun-ness :)

So Christmas was a great one this year for us! It was our first married Christmas together. We had such a blast! Since both Justin and I's family live in the Charlotte area, we are going to switch Christmas's every other year. This year it was my family's turn. My whole family flew into town and we all had so much fun! It's always fun seeing my sister's, brother in laws, nieces and one nephew. We have been shopping, the boys out to the farm hunting, going out to eat, movies, one of my great friends wedding, and much much more. The holidays are always soo soo fun! Anyways here are the pics from Christmas morning....the Halls are lovers of Christmas, we love the holidays for many many reasons! We are always geared up for it! Thanks Santa for all your love and gifts :)
