Holiday Hoorah

Ahh, henceforth commences my long overdue holiday post. We had a lot of fun during the holidays! 
First we went to Whole foods and made a gingerbread house! This is the first one Amory and I have ever made and whole food sure made it easy. They took care of all the materials, clean up, and even took a photo for us. Amory really enjoyed "painting" with frosting. I enjoyed that she was wearing an apron. 
 Making a gingerbread house with Grandma and Grandpa Battisti. Grandpa very diligently made a wagon. What ingenuity!
 All of us with our masterpiece. Thank you Whole Foods for prepping and cleaning up after us, what a cool event!

Soon after our great friends from GA came to visit- Arielle and her 1 year old daughter Madelyn. They spent a whole weekend with us going to fun places such as the trampoline park, the zoo and even helping us move into our NEW place. That's right- we are no longer in my parents' basement- hip hip HOORAY!!

 Then mommy!

Of course when Arielle left we then celebrated by birthday (sorry no pictures), visited Zak's family out of town (too many presents for the spoiled one) and then SANTA came to visit as well! I have photos on my phone of cookie decorating that I'll have to share later. As I'm sure you can tell by the photos Amory certainly is well loved by everyone. She got everything she could dream of, I think. 
 Oh look, Santa came!
 What is THIS- I didn't ask for a chocolate bar? I wanted Juice and Water. (seriously, that is what she asked Santa for this year). 
 Plastic dinosaurs are definitely appreciated.

I'll update more later, but for now... my computer is telling me it is about to die. Adios!
