Christmas Card

We are so excited for Christmas this year!  I have a hard time waiting to give gifts once I buy them, so Christmas about kills me!  Can't wait to see everyone's face when they get their gifts  :)

If you didn't get a card in the mail this year it's because I don't have your address.  So shame on you, send it to me for next year and enjoy it here this year  :)

Merry Christmas from the Gillespie Family!

Christmas Traditions

We went to see the lights at Riverwoods last week and stopped to see Santa.  The girls were enamored with all the lights and best of all -- parking was awesome, it was only 2 minutes away from our house and we had a great time!

The girls were in heaven seeing Santa.  Even Afton sat right up on his lap and grinned.

Sadie will tell anyone within ears distance that she wants the "Barbie Princess Charm School Movie" and it was no different with Santa.  She jumped right up and told him.  All business, this girl.

And of course, as is our favorite tradition, we stopped at Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory and each picked a delicious treat.

Deja Vu . . . kinda

I've been looking through pictures of the girls recently and it's crazy how much they look alike and yet how different they really are.  Afton seems to look less and less like Sadie the older she gets.   (Some of the pictures are from my old phone, so they're bad quality, but you get the idea)

Sadie - 2 months old

Afton - 2.5 months old
