Big weekend

Lots going on this weekend.  It started with our annual walk to our neighborhood tree lot.  We found the perfect tree within minutes.






Poppy was not happy to see that she wouldn't be able to ride in her red wagon on the way home, but she did agree to help daddy pull our Christmas tree.


..............................


Then first thing this morning it was off to our big dance class Christmas Show!!!  Now this wasn't quite as big of a deal as a recital, but it was up there.  We've been talking it up for weeks and Poppy couldn't wait to get to meet Santa at the end of our dance.  She's been practicing morning, noon and night lately...



Getting ready behind the scenes.  Can you tell how excited she was?!




And then as soon as we went on stage, she clammed up.  And then when she saw Santa, she literally curled up into a little ball and tried to hide from him.  Surprised?  We weren't!




But she was more than happy to accept flowers afterwards and tell everyone how much fun she had!  Our little performer.

Very cute. Love it! Hey, where did you find her mittens? I can't find ones like that.

How cute is she in that little outfit?! We still need our tree over here. Can you tell Poppy that Colin needs someone to help pick out a Christmas tree with him? Such a slacker I am...
