It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas
Last Sunday after we got our tree Jacob had to spend the rest of the day working in his office on a big case that was going to trial Monday. Embry and I spent the entire day decorating for Christmas and she had so much fun helping. She insisted we put a star on top of our tree instead of our angel we have had for the past five years.  |
| She took each piece of the nativity out of its box and set it up herself. |

Gramma and Grampa Great
Gramma and Grampa Great decided on a whim late last week to come down to Texas for James' basketball tournament this week/weekend. They arrived during nap time at our house Wednesday and spent the night with us. Embry was thrilled to have guests to show off for Wednesday afternoon/evening and she got to open up some early Christmas gifts from them.

I love how curious and adventurous Embry is and I have to say she's a little more brave than me. Hah! She loves exploring in the woods at a park by our house.

| She's very into dressing herself. Without me touching. Hence the backwards jeans. |
 |
| More updates to the play room! |
 |
| When we moved into our house we found four of these gorgeous antique chairs in our attic and I've recovered them and have them in a few rooms in the house. The two in my office were green, but this week I spent $4 in fabric and recovered both chairs! |
 |
| Sweet napper. She always wants to pick out one book to sleep with. LOL |
 |
| Tried my hand at homemade lemon bars this week- the lemons came from my MIL's lemon tree. They were delish!! |
 |
| We went delivering lemon bars to some neighbors and found Miss Lauren and E were in matching purple footie PJs =) |

| I have an obsession with holiday clothing for Miss E! |
