(just hangin' out in izzy's world}

{cold day=ice cream}

so there was no way we were going to pass 7 Eleven today without going in and getting izzy a treat.  the tradition is this....sabe gets izzy out of the car, puts her down, opens the door to "heaven" and she goes straight to the freezer!  after choosing her frozen-treat-for-the-day and daddy gets his caffeine fix, they pay and home we go!  today is it was Haagan-Daas (yes, izzy has expensive taste).  she was just so happy, so we had to get some pics.....

{spreadin' some love}

i was just playing around today with some different vintage color and textures.  can you tell that izzy and i have a good time hanging out?  i get pics and she gets lollipops!

Christmas morning

for the past 3 years, we've spent the night at Sabe's parents' home in MD, just about 10 miles from home.  they have this great big, old house that is so fun to spend Christmas at.  The kids have to wait at the top of the big staircase until everyone wakes up before they can go see what Santa brought.  Its painful, but oh well.  This year was so fun because Isabella was so full of expression and Olivia and Jaxon knew exactly what they wanted.  Surprisingly, neither one of them found any coal in their stocking. :)
