Pancakes with Santa

We attended the local YMCA's Pancakes with Santa again this year. Again this year, Brooklyn did not like the idea of being near Santa. Daddy had to join the group to get any picture. We had fun sitting in a sleigh and seeing and touching the live reindeer.

 

 

 

Christmas cookies

Brooklyn made cookies as her Christmas gift to family this year. She loved 'helping' by adding ingredients, stirring, and of course tasting the final product.

 

 

A little young...

Brooklyn loves to get into Momma's underwear and bras and wear them around the house.

Snow storm

Lots of snow = lots of FUN! We had a great time playing outside during one of our winter snow storms.

 

 

 

 

Goodbye and hello

Mandy's Aunt Norma passed away in December. While it was an unfortunate reason for Brooklyn to meet many new family members, it was nice to see everyone. We will miss Norma but know she's happy with others that have passed before her.

Turkey day 2012

Thanksgiving was spent in St. James, MN, with Mandy's family. Brooklyn enjoyed taking pictures of the festivities. It was fun to see the family and take part in the family Yahtzee competition. ...it's never to young to start!
