Christmas Eve
On Christmas Eve, we had a nice devotional at the church with music and talks. We followed it up with a nice German meal, a family devotional, and all opened one gift. Aaron was so excited for Christmas that he couldn't eat. He only at a slice of orange for dinner, and at breakfast, he only took a few bites of his baked french toast.
We sang Christmas songs before we opened gifts. The boys were SO excited, both to give their presents and to get lots of fun things. They have been practicing their letters with their new Leap Frog books from Macha and Papa Tim, and taking photos with their new Crayola Camera. They got some fun Legos and games from grandma and grandpa, and insisted on putting them together right away, which we loved.
The monkeys from Aunt Nancy and Uncle Jon were a big hit! Aaron immediately started bartering with Timmy to get his before he found out that he got his own! :)
Cora got a fantastic video monitor and some diapers and wipes. Scott is enjoying his new tablet still, and his fixed mountain bike! Katie is enjoying her new shirt, and fixed lock on the car! We love our photo album from Aunt Allie, and loved all the Christmas cards via post and email from friends and family. Thanks everyone!
We celebrated Christmas with a big holiday meal with our friends, the Waters Family.
We had turkey, stuffing, green beans, rolls, and au gratin potatoes.
We ended it all with yummy homemade apple pie, pumpkin pie and ice cream.
Great Christmas spent with family and friends!
Even Cora had a great time!
She was good for us and slept all morning while we opened gifts and prepared food.
Christmas Evening after all the partying, Aaron wanted to wear their Santa hats and coats to bed.
