We started the week with a special recital at Evie's ballet class on Monday. The whole family was in attendance which was quite a treat! Evie choreographed her own routine without any practice, and was pretty impressive!
Later the girls donned red noses and reindeer antlers for their Christmas number.
Later Ellie was victorious in obtaining a candy cane treat for herself.
Evie got a big hug from Daddy after her performance.
... and a special rose from Mom!
After the recital, we went back to the house to say goodbye to 412 S Columbus one last time! Thanks for all the wonderful memories!
By the end of the week, we were all settled into our new home and had started to decorate for the holidays - finally! Both girls helped mommy put together the German carousel in our new dining room.
Uncle Karl, Aunt Amy and Dia arrived on Friday, to our delight! Dia was so happy running around and playing with her cousins.
Later that night the girls got very involved in decorating the tree (unfortunately, four days before Christmas is not the most ideal time to find a tall tree, so we had to make due with what was left at Home Depot). They especially loved Mom's favorite 12 Days of Christmas ornaments.
Ellie was very determined to be the one to hang up this ornament.
On Saturday morning, Evie had her last gymnastics class with friends Greta and Ava.
Here she is letting loose on the rings! Now she's an expert at the rings at home as well.
