Christmas at its best

Here's a smattering of the past week & a half. What with Christmas & all, we've been having fun with visiting family, enjoying having daddy around, playing with our adorable California cousin. For Christmas Eve, we read the Nativity story, sangs bunches of Christmas carols, read Christmas stories, ate a yummy Mexican feast & watched the kids open their traditional Christmas Eve gifts of pajamas.

The Infamous Christmas Tree sans presents.

The baby opening his first present: new pajamas!

Miss M* loved her silky kitty pj's. She got a matching robe on Christmas morning!

The kindergartener posing in his new duds.

Snuggling with Aunt Beckie.

Christmas Morning. A & E got Stars Wars ships & figures from Santa. The baby a shopping cart. Miss M*, a fashion design studio & Cousin R*, the coveted My Little Pony Sweet Shoppe.

The baby got lots of unsolicited help opening his presents.

Daddy & the Santa baby.

The boys were oh so interested in each others gifts.

E looking a little tired from all of the excitement.

Miss M* loved her American Girl doll: Elizabeth, Felicity's friend from Colonial America.

Thank you Grandma & Grandpa for the beautiful clothes!

Especially for Aunt Beckie, Miss M*'s first creative design. Watch out, Project Runway!!
