Christmas Hodge-Podge

Some pictures from over this weekend....Abby had her little ornament decorating party on Sunday. Eleven little girls, all very excited about Christmas, filled the house with lots of giggles for a couple of hours on Sunday. I will admit I overestimated the girls' attention spans and ornament making abilities! The paint-your-own salt-dough ornaments were a hit, but the ornaments that required them to sit still for more than 5 minutes lost their appeal quickly! Everyone had a great time, however, and everyone went home with a baggie full of yet to be created ornaments (!), chocolate filled pretzel rings, and candy canes. I wasn't able to get any pictures of the girls at the party (and trust me, I had great plans to get a group shot!), as I was busy trying to glue Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer together for eleven five year olds, but I did manage to snap a couple of the set up before everyone arrived. Enjoy, and more to come!

Before everyone got here:
