Battle of the Mary's!

Yesterday we finally got out the Christmas decorations and started making our house festive for the holidays. When the kids woke up this morning they were delighted to see some of their favourite Christmas decorations and toys. After sending the boys to school, the girls (age 5 & 3) and I started assembling our tree. While I was working, the girls were playing with a nativity (pink Mary) and started to fight about who got Mary, she is oh so beautiful and is wearing a darling pink outfit. In an effort to curb the brawl that was about to take place, I dug out our Fisher Price nativity which has a stable that plays music and lights up. So of course now that one was the centre of the fights. It really was so funny that I had to take a picture. The following is in reverse order so scroll down to the girls together, then Buddha's sad , oh so sorry for myself expression as the prized Mary was snatched out of her hand.

And finally, Cruella Deville and her 'stink eye' - and yes her hair is usually brushed but we haven't gotten around to that yet!
Here's to a long, peaceful?? Christmas season!!!
