Christmas day


We spent Christmas day at Grandma L. & Grandpa B's house. Grandma L. read us the story of Christmas, and we each chose a word. When out word was read in the story, we got to pick out a gift to open. What a fun idea!

Stockings from Santa

The girls were so adorable about Santa this year! We've been learning about who St. Nicolas was all season. The girls left out cookies and milk by the fireplace for him on Christmas Eve. They were so excited on Christmas morning to see that Santa had eaten all of the cookies and drank all the milk! It's been fun to watch them really getting into Christmas this year. Not just the presents, but the true meaning - the birth of our Savior. They are really starting to "get it."

Resting


We all needed some down time after opening gifts - even the dog!

Christmas at home






I'm not sure what was more fun - the presents or the boxes?

Driving home

Here's a shot out the windsheild on our drive home from Worthington. I'm thankful my husband drove the whole way!

Christmas in W.








We had a great time celebrating Christmas last weekend with grandparents and cousins. I. and S. (3 months apart in age) really had fun together. O. & I. love to play with all of their cousins.


I. is cute!

I love this picture of our little girl! :)
