It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

Happy Sunday Again:)
These last few weekends have been jam-packed with family and fun! I've been a busy girl. We celebreated Great Grandma Dummer's upcoming 90th birthday by having a party for her!!! LOTS of people came and I got to play with all kinds of cousin I didn't even know I had!
Happy Bday Grandma...we love ya!
Here's our whole Dummer crew for our side of the family...



Madeline and I loved to play with our balloons and we avoided the crowd and ran into the church library most for much of the party! We are trouble when we get together...just think, a lot more years of growing up together to cause even more:)


On Sunday we had our church sunday school program...Dad was away in Green Bay having fun watching the Packers, so I hung out with Granny and Great Grams while mom had to help with the other kids. Mom says she's never seen me sit so still in church- I was mezmorized by Grams and all her pictures she was drawing for me:) 

After church we tried to sneak a quick picture of the Dummer cousins... I haven't been the most cooperative when it comes to taking pictures lately, but luckily Auntie Lisa let me sit on her lap and then I sort of joined the picture.
Chloe, Connor, Madeline, and me!

Just bein' my silly self at home:) I've always loved to take out every single shoe mom owns, and carry them around the house, but now I've figured out how to put them on my feet, so I think I'm pretty stylin'! 

We kept up the holiday festivities this weekend by having our Spielman family Christmas (which is Grandma Lynn's family)  It's always so nice to see and visit with everyone. I had another fun adventure of playing with my cousins
Although, when I wasn't playing with them, I found a pretty good seat...right by the cookie tray:) 


I colored with Auntie Stacy...


and helped Daddy look for the pickle on the tree...



After the Spielman party, mom and I ventured up to the cities to spend the night at Granny's house and has my first 'Holidazzle' parade experience! It was cold and chaotic with LOTS of people, with I really enjoyed seeing all the characters and lights, so it was worth it:)
Me and mommy, all bundled up! 

Waiting patiently in the crowd for the parade to begin! 

Mom was on crowd control keeping me safe standing between on the people, so Granny was in charge of the camera and got a few good pictures of some of the floats...I thought I'd include just 1...the final float and the (2nd) most important guy of the season...Santa!!!!



In the hussle and bussle of getting all the last minute 'to-do' list items checked off, I hope everyone has an enjoyable week and takes some time to relax...I know I will:) I won't be posting again beforehand, so I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas next weekend!!!!!

Love,
Danika
