Christmas

This year Christmas was very laid back!  We enjoyed spending time together as a family, going to church, and doing skype calls with our family.

Here are our Christmas activities in pictures...

Putting up the tree...

We put the tree up high so Bridger couldn't reach it.

We made paper bird ornaments...

Gracen decided it would be fun to taste flour and got it all over his face...

Cute boy!

We made sugar cookies...

Jammies for Christmas eve.

Christmas Morning came a little too slowly for the kids!   I told Brynlee and Gracen they weren't allowed to wake anyone up too early.  I heard Brynlee in her room crying around 6:30 a.m. and went in to see what was wrong, she said, "This night is taking too long!"  

We were up not long after that!

Bridger's first Christmas.  He enjoyed opening some of his gifts and just ran around picking up things and playing with paper and boxes.  

Gracen's Christmas list had to of been 10 miles long this year.  I think he was quite pleased with what he got.

Santa mistakenly switched the DVD's he got for Brynlee and Gracen.  Gracen was a bit confused while opening it, but kinda laughed it off.

Brynlee, on the other hand, was not having it!  She didn't want to open a BOY movie!  

She was pretty happy with her gifts as well!

With each of our children we have made them a first Christmas ornament with their hand print on it.  Bridger's is the biggest hand print since he is nearly a year old.  It was fun comparing the size of all of their hands.  Brynlee was about 8 months her first Christmas and Gracen was 2 months.  Even with that age difference Brynlee's hand print is the smallest.
