Christmas

Christmas for me came and went....I did a few crafts with the girls and I made Sasha stocking in less than two weeks that seems like a long time but with all the work that it takes and the little time that the girls let me work on it I would say it I did good. I am so glad I finished.
I made all our stockings quilted. I only did Sasha's this year. You can see in the picture how I hang them.

We made cards to give as presents to grandparents....Girls loved getting messy. The snowmen craft I saw it on Pinterest and thought it was cute and the Christmas tree I thought of it, it turned out OK.

On different days we made Christmas tree pancakes and Snowman peanut butter and Jelly Sandwich. As you can see Andrea ate the chocolate and left almost all of her pancake.
Our Christmas Tree
Some of our decorations around the house.....The candy tree we made it last year.
 We went late but got just in time to take a picture with Santa at our Ward Christmas Party. I made marshmallows dipped in chocolate and red sprinklers for dessert to take, I saw this at Pinterest and thought they were cute and I had some of those red and white straws left from Sasha's party. Mine didnot turned out as cute but here is the link if you want to see where I got the idea:

Andrea posing for mom...I could not get Sasha to hold long enough for a pic, oh well next year I guess.

24th of December
On that day we did some shopping and helped mom cooked a little bit. My brother came to dinner. We had an awesome meal Thanks to my mom. Hallacas, Pan de Jamon, ensalada de pollo, Jamon, Torta negra and Cheesecake. I forgot to take pics of the food. I got few other pics in front of the christmas tree that night.


Christmas morning
We are so blessed that we could have jobs and be able to have presents, not everyone does.

The day before we stayed until 3 am putting together the kitchen for Andrea....and at 9 am we had to wake up....I went to the bathroom and when I came out Andrea was downstairs. Well she played with Santa's presents until we were all ready to open presents. She was so excited.
Santa's present.


Sasha loved her computer and piggy bank that she got and she is really using her table that she got from Santa...she gets on top of it to jump.
Kaiya thanking el Tio....cute!
