#weltegram2014 December 28-31

Eepers! It's the very last #weltegram post for 2014!!!! Y'all, i'm excited! I had a goal last year to take a photo of my family every day, and I somehow successfully achieved that goal! It was fun and at the same time stressful! There were several days where I would almost forget, or just think we were having such a mundane day that it didn't feel "capture worthy."

I've decided not to document our daily lives through Instagram this year, but i'll be documenting memorable events instead!

Let's get to the wrap up though!
December 28- Date night with my hubby!

It was actually out to eat for my nieces 18th birthday, but we take what we can get!
December 29- The Welte girls are ready for another round of Christmas!
December 30- Getting ready to play "Oh Hell". 

It's a card game sort of like Spades, that the Welte clan plays every time we're together. 
December 31-  Happy New Years!

And with that, the year is over. To see our entire year go HERE. Keep us up with me every day on Instagram. I'll be posting our more memorable events with #theweltesanyday2015. I'd love for you to follow us there!

#weltegram2014 Dec 17-27

Weltegram2014's are almost over for the year! Y'all, this was overly ambitious for me, and I've decided i'm not up for the challenge again! It's been a great way to document our year, and I'm so proud that I've kept up with it every single day! Okay, maybe I missed one day, I haven't finished my final calculation, but I will when I post the final photos of our year next week!

So, on to my little recap: 
December 17- Gretchen and I sporting our Christmas clothes at school! I had Ugly Christmas sweater day, and she got to wear a super cute Christmas dress.
December 18- Gretchen's holiday party at school!

I say it all the time, but I'm blessed to have her at my school this year! I love being able to attend these special moments!
December 19- The Welte girls are excited for Christmas vacation!!!!
December 20- O Christmas Tree

I love having the lights on while i'm home and sitting by the tree each night. It's just so peaceful. 
December 21- Time for Home Alone!!!!

One of the best Christmas movies ever!
December 22- Gift wrapping with the Welte girls. The might be the worst helpers ever!
December 23- The 5 of us headed out on our annual tour of lights!
December 24- Celebrating the real reason of the season.
December 25- Sister snuggles on Christmas morning.
December 26- Christmas at my parents!
December 27- Another round of presents!

#weltegram2014 Dec 8- Dec 17

December is half way over, which means the year is almost over!!! And, that means that my #weltegram2014's are almost over too! And y'all, that might be the best Christmas gift ever! LOL! I told DJ that whle I have loved capturing our life this year, I won't be doing it next year. The demands are just too much, and sometimes I've even stressed about not getting a picture. I just don't need that in my life, so next year, i'll be documenting our life in typical Elaine fashion- random spurts. I just love me some random!
 
Random describes our family so well. We are all over the place, we lead very busy lives, not one day is similar to the next day. And, I wouldn't have it any other way!
 
So, on to our random #weltegram2014s for the week:
December 8- My little ballerina.
December 9- The Welte girls ready to watch Rudolpha!
December 10-Sweet G, sleeping in mommy's bed.
 
December 11- G and I sporting our Christmas clothes at school. It was ugly Christmas sweate day for me, but at least she got to wear a cute dress!
December 12- Date Night!!!
 
The girls preschool had a babysitting night, so we took the girls and we went Christmas shopping and out to eat for our annivesary!
December 13- We surprised the girls by taking them to the Tulsa Christmas Parade.  
December 14- Holiday baking with the girls!
December 15- The Magic of Christmas!

Adalyn has been so fascinated by our tree this week! It's almost as if she hasn't noticed it for the two weeks that it has been up, but now she can't keep her hands out of it!
December 16- It's a Christmas Miracle!!! Meggie wore a dress to preschool!
December 17- Happy 9 year anniversary to this guy! I wouldn't want to do life with anyone else!

#Weltegram2014 November 20-December 7

To say that this post is long over due is probably the understatement of the century! I have been meaning to sit down and add these pictures for the past few weeks, but other blog posts, being out of town, and just plain not having the time have gotten in the way. Nevertheless, this post is getting published and I can give myself a pat on the back for finally getting it posted! Yay me!

To keep up with me every day: follow @ewelte on Instagram.
November 20- Happy (preschool) Turkey day!

The girls have an annual Thanksgiving meal at preschool and their parents are able to go and eat lunch with the kiddos. I wasn't able to get off, but DJ went and I dressed Megan and Adalyn in their turkey day dresses.
November 21- Movie night with my girls!

DJ was out of town for the last away football game of the year (whoopee!) so the girls and I rented Mr. Peabody and Sherman.
November 22- Mani/pedi night!
November 23- Picnic time so we can watch the new Sofia the First episode AND so I don't have to sweep my kitchen floors again.

Y'all, I'm telling you living room picnics are THE BEST! I just put down our picnic blanket, let the girls sit and eat (put their drinks in something non-spillable) and when we're done, everything gets picked up, I throw the blanket in the washing machine and I may have to run my vacuum cleaner, but it is MUCH easier than sweeping my kitchen floors and the girls think it's tons of fun!
November 24- Getting some homework done before heading home!

It is much easier for Gretchen and I to do her homework before we leave school so we aren't interrupted by her little sisters!
November 25- Nothing says "Road Trip" like dinner at McDonald's!
November 26-These cousins are going to be best friends.

Funny little story- Amelia, my niece, was at Sunday school and had to draw a family picture. She drew a picture of herself, her mom, and her dad, and then added two other little girls- her "sisters" which happened to be Gretchen and Megan. 
November 27- Happy Thanksgiving!!!

We were hungry and sleepy, and this is the best I was getting in the moment! 
November 28- Our first Branson day and getting spoiled by their Gee. She let them each pick out a Build-a-Bear and they all chose the same pink bear!
November 29- The best shopping buddy ever!
November 30- We threw all the girls in a shopping buggy in order to keep them confined while we waited to visit Santa!
December 1- The girls are so excited to have daddy home for dinner!

Seriously, this is maybe the 4th dinner we've had together as a family since July! Thank you football season.
December 2- Filling up the advent!
December 3- Watching Santa Clause 3!!!! I just love this time of year!
December 4- A late night Santa run!
December 5- Decorating the Christmas tree!

Gretchen's pajamas available through my shop.
December 6- Watching Maleficent on a lazy Saturday pajama day!
December 7- Watching daddy put the lights on the house!

Woohoo! Thanks for hanging with me through a super long catch up of our #Weltegram2014s!!!!

#weltegram2014 November 10-19

I have been off on my days all week! Anyone else? I for one, am so glad it's Thursday! This week has been full of way too cold days, IEP meetings, stuffy noses, and laundry. I know, it sounds like so much fun!

Let's get to the recap of what our family has been up to lately!
November 11- The girls are ready for books and bed!
November 12- Homework time!
November 13- It's bitterly cold outside so Addy and I (and her big sisters too) came home and put our pjs on and now we are sitting by the fire and watching cartoons!
November 14- Gretchen is stylin today!
November 15- The girls had a great sister sleepover!
November 16-The girls had so much fun at Nolan's first birthday! They loved playing outside even though it was freezing!
November 17- Sisters
November 18- Selfie!
November 19-Lighting of the Commons at TU
November 20-Lots of homework tonight since we skipped last night!

We've obviously spent lots of time in our jammies! It's been so cold that all I want to do in the evenings is cuddle up and stay inside! Hope y'all are staying warm too!
