Christmas 2013

Ok, never again will I wait until March to write about Christmas! I feel like all the magic and excitement that I was feeling is gone. Lesson learned, keep up on the blog! We really did have a wonderful Christmas, though. On Christmas Eve we went over to Nana's and Papa's for dinner and then we came home and baked Santa some cookies. The kids loved the carrots that we set out for the reindeer. They cleared the plate and I had to put out more!

Then Dada read us The Night Before Christmas while the cookies were baking!

Cookies are done! Of course we had taste some before setting them out for Santa.

Not long after we got the kids tucked into bed, Santa came!!!

Here's the kids' stockings.

And now we'll fast forward to Christmas morning! The kids were so excited to see all the presents under the tree! They went through their stockings first.

And then it was time to open presents!

Here's all of Ashlynn's new stuff!

And Dawson's new stuff!
