Our Christmas always starts out with . . . the reading of the Christmas story . . . in which the adults are always substantially more attentive than the children . . .
Getting ready to open . . .
. . . his scooter. Since then, we've had a lot of this . . .
. . . and this.
Kayla playing with her tea set. (The tulle skirt she has one was actually "her" gift to "me." We take the kids to the dollar store and let them pick out one gift for each parent . . it's always interesting what gifts they select for their "parents!")
Tyler decided to get a jump on waking up Christmas morning . . .so he was ready for his first nap when we were ready to open gifts. So . . . he "opened" his gifts a little later. And was so thrilled to . . .can't you tell????
Our birthday cupcakes for Jesus . . .
Grandma thought the Christmas story needed more visual interest, so she made an angel costume for Kayla, and a shepherd costume for Joshua. Kayla played the part with dramatic style. You will notice no pictures of Joshua because . . . he wanted nothing to do with dressing up. Oh well . . . maybe next year???
This Christmas will be remembered as the Christmas with all of the snow. Wow. Merry Christmas everyone!!!!
