I hope you dance!

Tia dances every time she hears music - it is so cute to see her little hand start coming up and her little head start moving - then she slowly turns around twirling. Belle & I were out in the front garden yesterday and we started singing and Tia started to dance. I hope she always loves to dance - it brings us such joy to watch her get caught up in the music and the moment (she really likes those shoes!)

Merry Christmas!

What a wonderful Christmas! Tia enjoyed all the excitement and was happy with her gifts although I'm pretty sure she would have been happy with a large supply of "Tandy" (candy!)LOL!. I had planned for Tia and Bella to wear sleeveless white eyelet dresses for the Christmas Eve service at church however it was a chilly 65 so I threw Isabella's dress from when she was 2 on Tia and I loved the way she looked in it! (Though I did not get a single great photo - maybe later!) Here the girls are scattering the magic reindeer dust on the lawn to help guide Santa's sleigh!
First the stockings! Then the gifts! A new bike, kinda fun but a water bottle, now that is very cool :)
My prayer is that all my blogger friends have a blessed Christmas season and a very Happy New Year!.

Little Swimmer!

We just returned from a 14 day New Zealand Cruise. Tia swam in the pool on the ship almost every day and she is getting to be such a good little swimmer! She would jump right in and Daddy would let her head go under before he held her - she loved it!
