CHRISTMAS!!!

Ellie was the first one awake! 8:15! Not bad! We had dad go out and see if everything was OK. Ellie was very nervous, she thought that Santa was out there waiting for all of us! Once she figured out he wasn't she was so excited! Carson could wait, he thought dad was taking too long! :) It was a really fun Christmas! You plan and plan, get everything all ready for months (except me who procrastinated till the last week) and then it is all over within and hour or less! I loved Christmas this year! I am so thankful for the True meaning of Christmas, Christ's birth. I don't think you can fully understand what Mary went through until you have had a baby. I couldn't imagine having a child in the conditions she did. I am thankful for her sacrifice! I am thankful for Christ's sacrifice for me!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!! Christmas Morning! Notice how the bottom of the tree is no longer decorated, thanks kids! :)

MORE Play dough! YEAH!!! We have play dough coming out of our ears but they both love it and play with it every day!

BUMBLE BEE!!!!

He was so excited! It was so much fun to see him this year! He understood what was happening and was so excited! Lots of fun!

Ellie was so happy with all of her gifts from Santa!

Ellie LOVES her skirt! She loves to twirl in it! Thanks Nana for all your hard work!

My mom spent HOURS making these darling skirts and bows for all the girls! She even made one for the baby.... if I have a girl!! They are so stinkin cute!

Carson got new church clothes from Nana and Papa and Ellie got her darling skirt and bow! We sure love our Nana and Papa! Thank you!

Jon! What more do I need to say! :)

We love to play games(minus Jon). We had our neighbor Nick over to join in on the fun!

Nana and Papa came Christmas evening!! We were so excited for them to come! They had been at Brooke's house for Christmas Eve. Jon, Delena, Noelle, Papa Mac and G.G. came over for dinner and to play games! We had lots of fun!
