Christmas came early in Japan!

Our version of Madison's 1st Christmas with just us was B-E-A-U-TIFUL! Even though she is just short of 8 months, she is very smart and enthusiastic. She ripped open most of her gifts and smiled because whenever she notices we are tkaing pictures, she smiles. We bought her 21 Disney cartoons, mostly classic ones, three very cute outfits, Belle tea set, push buggy, Jordan's, Etnies, snow suit & matching coat, Charlie Brown Christmas, a limited edition Kimono Barbie Doll and of course her Power Wheels Mustang!! We know she is too young to operate it herself, so we were driving her around in it, she had a blast! This is her 1st Christmas and we wanted it to be very special, indeed it was. We will also be celebrating with family in Texas and in California. We are very excited and happy to see everyone.

Cookies for an early Santa..

Since we are leaving for the states soon, we decided to have an early 1st Christmas with just us three. We decided to make cookies for Santa and set them out with the lovely help of Miss Madison Paige. GOOD TIMES, ENOUGH SAID :) Enjoy.

Iwakuni Tree Lighting

The other night we decided to go to the base's annual tree lighting ceremony. It was pretty nice and cozy, they had free cookies, hot cocoa and hot cider. It was so chilly out, Madison looked like Rudolph with her little red nose. :) We had a great time with some wonderful friends.

Princess Party/ Winter ONE-derland

Today, Madison attended a Princess Party for Emmaly's 2nd birthday. We decided to dress Madison in her Princess Aurora costume we bought on clearance for $5 from Babies R Us after Halloween. She looked absolutely adorable!! They had an amazing balloon man there and made her a a matching ballon which she tried to eat, lol. Unfortunately, we didn't get any of pics of the birthday girl and Madison together, but we had a great time :)

Winter ONE-derland!
Before the Princess party, she attended Madeline's Winter ONE-derland! The party was truely a wonderland with hot cocoa and all the fixings :) There were even snowflakes hanging from the ceiling!

Christmas on the beach..

This year we decided to take our Christmas photos on the beach with no shoes! It was really fun, I hope everyone likes them :) The Christmas cards are already sent out, so keep an eye out.

Rockin' around the Christmas tree

I finally have a chance to post! We bought our tree the day after Thanksgiving after I was done with the "Black Friday" madness. My friend Doreen and I were the very first people to buy our trees on the entire base! We partially decorated that day and finished up the next day. Here are some pictures of us rockin' around the Christmas tree! Enjoy.
