She was also very excited about her new kitchen. She loves to play with it and cook all sorts of yummy foods.
Evelyn was really blessed this year with a lot of love from all her Grandmas, Grandpas, aunts and uncles in receiving so many nice gifts. She was very excited to open this box from her aunt Amy and uncle Daniel and see all the princesses, she likes to talk to them and roll play being their mommy.
Grandma and Grandpa Koester sent her so many nice things, cute clothes, flash cards and one of her top favorites a Dora microphone, this girl loves music, dancing and singing.
Her new high heels are priceless, these things hardly ever come off.

Evelyn loved having all her cousins here to play with, she had a special attachment to Juliet.
Later in the week we got a special surprise, SNOW! It was really crazy since it hasn't snowed here since I was about 8 years old. It made everything look so pretty and actually feel like winter. Evelyn was excited about it and had fun playing in it and eating the "white" snow.
We had a wonderful Christmas and have been so blessed this past year. We surely missed not getting out to see Kyle's family this year, but with my big belly and Kyle's studying we enjoyed the time we had together here. I can't believe I am already at 36 weeks with our second girl it really has seemed to go by quickly. I have been so thankful that it has gone so well and healthy this far and hope this last stretch continues that way. I am looking forward to using my new and very nice glider chair that Kyle got for me and the new baby to enjoy. Hope everyone else had a wonderful past year and I send out my best wishes for 2011!
