Christmas Celebrations

The best part of Christmas for us is spending time with our families!!

The girls visited Santa a few days before Christmas.

They built this snowman and added carrots and birdseed to it.  The birds were very happy!

Christmas morning, opening gifts from Brian and I after Santa gifts.

Clara's new sweater says "Best Sis Ever".

At my parents' house...6 out of the 7 cousins.  L to R: Emily, Clara, Hailey, Natalie, Laura, Adam

Clara was very excited to open a Barbie Puppy Mobile!

Hailey couldn't believe she got a tablet!

David shows Nathan a toy he got.

Brian built this barn for Adam as he is into the little farm animals right now.

He loved it!

We all laughed that the kids chose this little corner to huddle in.

When my sister asked my dad for gift ideas, he mentioned "cash, preferably with a Benjamin on it".  So, my brother-in-law, David, spent an hour attempting to draw a Benjamin Franklin face on a $1 bill a few days before Christmas.  It made for a funny gift to him at our family celebration!

Yes, Pie in the Face game was played!

We met our good friends, Jon and Paige (who moved to China this year), for dinner on Monday evening.  It was great to see them!!

Cousins on Brian's side! L to R: Hailey, Clara, Emma, Stephen, Jack, and Alex

The girls opening purses and goodies inside them.

The girls also got jumpsuits!

Hailey is in the blue and Emma in the pink.
