Ella LOVES Christmas!

Ella is so intrigued by everything Christmas...she loves the decorating, the baking, the gift giving (and receiving), the music, and the shows...just about everything except Jolly Ole St. Nick...she is petrified of that man. So we make sure Christmas is much more than that (well, duh, of course it is) and have many other traditions going on. She is really taking her own role as the baker, decorator, singer and gift giver this year and it is so fun to watch. We are haivng a "Polar Express Pajama Playdate" this week and she is so anxious to prepare for it....she will make gifts for her friends and help me bake all the goodies.

Ella has already gotten a headstart on the baking and gift-giving this past week...

Just the first of many baking days for Ella....she LOVES to help out in the kitchen, especially when someone is making cookies. She got to help Memaw with hers this day.

Ella wrote a Christmas card for each of her preschool friends. She also made them candy cane reindeers. She loved being able to give each of them a gift and was so excited to say "Merry Christmas" while handing it to them.

I wrote each child's name on an envelope and she copied each name onto their card just perfectly and she knew whos was whos by reading their names....she amazes me.
