Pinkalicious

Here is a little peek at Hayden's pink tree.  She decided she wanted it in her playroom this year.  As you can see it matches just fine.....most everything is pinkalicious in Hayden's little world.  When I put on her dress that day she told me that it was her ice skating Santa costume.  Except we have never seen an ice skating Santa so not sure how or why she decided Santa ice skates, and by the way those are her "dance shoes" or so I have been told.  Hmmmmmm.

and why you ask if her ornaments have been repositioned on her tree to her liking....why yes they have:)

I must share this ornament with you.  It is my VERY favorite ornament and it came from two of our most favorite people in the whole world.  It arrived shortly after Hayden came home.  I absolutely love putting it on our tree and I actually keep it out in my office the rest of the year.  It is from our dear, dear friends Scott and JoEllen.  It seems like we have been friends with them FOREVER!! But about 12 years ago they moved to Boise, ID.  They were our friends that we did EVERYTHING with, we know too much about them and they know too much about us.  They have since had 3 beautiful children and made quite a little life for themselves in ID.  We miss them terribly and don't come close to seeing them often enough.  But they sent this ornament to us and I cried when I opened it.  It means so much to us the meaning and who sent it.  But as you can see it has Hayden's whole name(I have smudged our last name) and then on the other side it has our forever family day date painted on it.  It is hand blown glass and hand painted, and again it is one of my VERY favorite things in our house!!!  It is from this company and if you are looking for a lovely gift for a family bringing home a child I think this is one of the best things you could give. 

We love you Scott and JoEllen(and kids)
