Twas the night before Christmas....

December 24, 2010

Tonight we have some fun traditions with our kids. We read the Christmas story as a family, then we review our goals and what we wanted to do for Jesus the year before and make new ones, we open one present (always pj's), put out our reindeer food outside on the snow, write our letter to Santa and put out cookies, and then we let the kids have a sleepover together! It's always a fun filled night full of great excitement!

Justin and Megan sprinkling reindeer food.

Katie, Justin, and Megan in their new Jammies and showing their reindeer food!

The kids all in Megan's room settled in for bed. They didn't fall asleep quickly but they sure had fun! They were so excited for Santa to come! I love these kiddos, what a lucky mom I am!

Making Sugar Cookies for Santa!

December 23, 2010

Today I promised the kids we would make sugar cookies for Santa. Here they are working hard!

Justin, Katie, and my nephew Ryker!

Katie, Justin, Ryan (eating his cookie), and Megan. They turned out soooo great!

Ryan loved the tree. He was constantly pointing at all the decorations, throwing the balls like real balls, and going "choo-choo" to make me turn on the train (or he would just bring me a piece of the train to turn it on)!

visiting Ogden!

December 2010

Every year we take the kids up to Ogden to see the lights and all the Christmas houses. The kids have such a great time. We go to dinner first, then visit Santa, and walk around and see all the houses and lights. Below are some of the pictures of us while there.

Our family!

Katie and Megan by one of the house villages.

The kids with Santa. The kids were really cute but Santa did throw me off a little he would ask them what they would like and then say "anything else" (I just sat there thinking isn't that enough Santa)?" So we had a few surprises but they were all really cute with him.

Megan and Katie by the Ogden sign.

The kids were running ahead of us and pretending to be trees. They would hold really still then when we got close to them they would run ahead laughing. They were really cute.

Family Christmas get together!

Dec. 19, 2010

Each year on the Sunday before Christmas. We go up to Robs parents and get together with all of his family for Christmas. We have dinner, each family does something (we sang etc), play music, exchange presents, and play! It's a nice way to see everyone and celebrate Christmas and make Christmas day more open to do what you as a family want to do together. It was really fun and the kids love it.

Our family performed up on the house top (all 3 verses) Mom, Katie and Megan sang and did the actions, Justin played the piano, Ryan danced, and Rob played the guitar! Great job kids!
