Dickens of a Christmas




I took the girls to downtown McKinney for Dickens of a Christmas. Aunt Shea went with us and we met Shannon for some quick photos.
We had a great time! The square was decorated top to bottom for Christmas, carolers were singing, Frosty was riding in the little train, and everyone had on santa hats as they rode the carosel.
We went into a few of the little shops along the square. They were full of things I'd love to decorate my house with, but I did good, and didn't buy anything. I tried to buy Livie anything in the childrens boutique. She had a death grip on a chicken nugget and I was trying to trade her with everything I could! Nope, she was not letting go! So, she's holding it in the majority of her pictures. I was able to snatch a few bites to down-size the nugget, and Shannon cropped it out or took close-ups until she finally decided she was done with it. I tasted the nugget, and there was nothing special about it. The adorable $50 kitty blanket was 100x better, but whatever. I saved money!!
Taylor loved having Aunt Shea with us. She pranced around posing for pictures anywhere she could! Her day was complete when she rode the carosel on a pretty painted horse.
The pictures Shannon took turned out amazing. I have been blessed with gorgeous girls that clearly love each other! Now, I just have to get some pictures of my boys!!!

About Me

My photo
From Barbie to Batman is an appropriate title for this blog for numerous reasons. The obvious being that on any given day you will find at least one of our kids running around pretending to be a superhero, while another one is playing dress-up or playing Barbies. This does not fall into the gender stereo typical categories one would think, either. The boys enjoy dressing up just as much as the girls (high heels included) and the girls know more facts about Star Wars and superheroes than most adult men. That being said, we are a fun family full of adventures. It is time I share our stories so all may enjoy our crazy, blessed life.
