Christmas Day

 

 

 

We celebrated Christmas this morning with our three girls and their Uncle Kurt and his girls Katya and Sonya! The big cousins spent the night and actually waited until 7:30 to wake up! The girls all opened stockings one at a time and the Big girls really were wonderful and enthusiastic about what the little girls got in the stockings from Santa...Mommy and Daddy got special gifts from Santa too:-) We ate breakfast (caramel apple french toast), then we read the Christmas Story from the book of Luke, while the big girls acted it out using our Little People Natvity set...that was pretty fun! Then we all opened our presents! Some of the fun gifts included my childhood doll house (Yes! my Mom made it for me when I was little and you can see it in the picture of Addy feeding Abby Cadabby...pretty impressive), a kitchen set for the house, a new BIG RED bean bag for Maya to lounge in, Addy received an Abby Cadabby doll and Maya a Grover doll (their favorite Sesame characters), Dora Jammies...baby Teya Jammies...Elmo and Jungle Book videos from Babu, new pairs of shoes for Addy and Maya, and Dean and I are super excited about our new video camera and work out gear from our folks! Tomorrow we will have Christmas with Auntie Holly and Uncle Matt and then Next week in Portland with my Parents if the snow decides to melt! We have been VERY blessed this year and are most thankful for health and our three beautiful girls. Happy Birthday Baby Jesus!
