Kastelic Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas at our house this year. As you all know Claire and Addy (mainly Claire) have been so excited for Christmas this year and could barley wait for the day to arrive. My sister and her family came from up north for Christmas which was really fun. They have three kids and the little one is three which is perfect for Claire. They had such a great time.

We hosted Christmas eve at our house. It was really fun but a lot of work. I now have a new appreciation for the holiday dinners my parents put on.

Christmas morning the girls were surprised by Santa by getting a new playhouse for the backyard. I took a picture but it did not turn out great. Claire also got a scooter which she has been asking Santa for for months. She was thrilled. As always the girls were spoiled by Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles with a ton of new things. Thank you to all for all the nice things!

We have been really blessed the past year with the arrival of Miss Addy and by Claire the best big sister ever. We are so thankful for all that we have and look forward to the new year ahead. Hopefully it is a better one for the stock market (FINGERS CROSSED!)

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

that is so cute. i love the slide. we have one like that and we keep it upstairs in the playroom. the kids love it. claire's stocking is hilarious. my parents always gave us fruit in our stockings - she could hold a dozen oranges in there.
