I am not going to go all into detail about why I am so glad that Obama is our new President or why I am so happy to be done with Bush. I just want to say that today, I am so proud to be an American. I am so excited for what this historic day brings. Today is a GREAT day to be an American!!
This year for Cole's "friend" party, he wanted a sleepover. At first I thought I was crazy for agreeing but in the end it was great, and the boys had an awesome time. Cole has such great friends. They ate 3 pizzas in about 5 minutes, polished off a TON of junk food, played Wii, wrestled, played Bakugans...you name it, the boys did it!! We made them settle down at 11:00 and watch a movie....there was Taylor right in the middle of the action, literally. She plopped down her sleeping bag in the middle of the floor, and was just one of the boys. They all are always so cute with her...I think she had a good time too. At 6:00 AM they were all up and at it again. Of course, being boys, the second I walked out of my room they were asking for breakfast. This year instead of doing a traditional cake, we did a pan of cinnamon rolls with candles!! They LOVED it!! It was a great night with great friends. Cole is a really lucky kid!!
Taylor & Aunt Abbi.....she loves her Aunt Abbi so much!! We missed you Maddy!!

Well, I think you can tell by the pictures that my kids had a WONDERFUL Christmas this year. I must say that this year was by far one of the funnest. Though I have to admit I wasn't looking forward to it at all and was even quoting the Scrooge, to see how happy the kids were on Christmas morning made it all worth the stress. Both kids got exactly what they wanted....they must have been good kids this year. Taylor's favorite gift was from Santa....Kit, the American Girl Doll. Kit has been at the top of her list since the summer. She was so excited when she opened her gift from Santa. He did good!! Cole can't tell you what his favorite gift was....he says he loves them all. As a family gift, we got a wii from Adam's parents which has been a ton of fun, and very addicting. This was an amazing Christmas filled with friends, family, and tons of fun & laughter.
Well, the month of December was both uneventful yet full of events. Between, work, snow, school. snow, Christmas performances, snow, and parties....did I mention snow....we were pretty busy but didn't take many pictures. So not like me is it? Here is a recap of the Fassler Family Events.....
COLE: Well Cole has been busy with scouts, playdates, missing soccer, playing video games, and school. He is such a great kid. At his December pack meeting, he received 6 belt loops for achievements over the last few months. We were so proud of him. He loves his new scout troop, and the fact that it is so much smaller than the old troop. He misses his fellow scouts and Rosie but is still loving the scout program. He will become a bear at the end of January. He also has made some great friends and literally asks for a playdate everyday. It drives me nuts but I am glad he has such good buddies. He also had a Christmas music program along with a Tanner Dance program at school. Adam and I love that he takes everything with school so seriously...even though he hates both dance and music.
TAYLOR....the diva: Life with Taylor is always exciting and an adventure filed with fashion, make up, and looking good. Boy am I in trouble with this little princess!! She also has had a busy month. She had a music performance with Montessori at the Reid School for the Holidays. Well she sang another solo, and was amazing and confident!! You gotta love the confidence this little 4 year old has. It is amazing.
As for Adam and I...we are plugging along as usual. The holidays always make things more hectic but the kids are so excited and loving every minute of it. Happy Holidays from our family to yours!!
