Christmas Day

 

 

 

 

Both of our families came to our house this Christmas, we cooked dinner & had ham, dressing, all of the sides & desserts. We had so much fun opening all of the gifts, I believe Katelyn was overwhelmed because of all of the presents she received, there were alot!! We even had to open Will's because he slept through it all. Brad & I also got some great gifts & we are so thankful to be a part of such great families. Thanks for everything you all did, we had a very Merry Christmas!!

Christmas Morning

 

 

 

 

 

Priceless!
 

 

 

 

 

We had a wonderful Christmas this year with the exception that I was sick from Thursday until today. I felt horrible but made the best of it & of course Katelyn made it so much fun! She was speechless when we woke her up & told her that Santa came to visit. Of course she got the bicycle she wanted & couldn't wait to ride it. Also you can see she couldn't wait to dress up in her new princess costumes, check out those shoes with her pj's & her belly hanging out of her Belle costume. Will had a great first Christmas even though he slept through most of it. Santa brouhgt him some much needed toys!

Making sweets!

 

 

 

Thursday night we made peppermint bark, white chocolate & candy canes, & Katie had so much fun beating up the candy canes. Then on Friday night we made cookies for Santa, I got to use my new plate from the pottery party I had made, the Christmas trees are Katie & Will's footprints, I love the way it turned out. Katelyn had fun rolling out the cookie dough & decorating with icing & sprinkles. Santa must have loved her cookies because he almost ate them all & Pete even took one for his long trip back with Santa. This is something I look forward to doing with her every year at Christmas, I can't wait for Will to join in on all of the fun!

Christmas with Granny

 

 

We had our annual Christmas party with my grandparents (my dad's side)Saturday evening. All of the kids had so much fun, this was the first year we had it at a different location. We had the party at my grandparents church & of course we had access to the gym & all of the kids took full advantage of it. They all played until it was time to open gifts. My Granny buys gifts for every child, grandchild, great-grandchild & there is usually some extra presents for anyone who may have shown up unannouced. I can't remember the last time there was a tally of everyone but I think it was somewhere around 60 family members give or take a few. She does way to much for everyone every year but she wouldn't have it any other way!

First tooth!

 

 

 

Katie was 8 months old when she cut her first so I was very suprised when I noticed Will had cut his first tooth already. Now I know why he had been fussy a few days before that, I just assumed it was from all of his reflux issues. It looks like the one next to it will be coming in pretty soon too.

New Pictures

 

 

 

 

I had to get a few pictures of the kids before we left the house Saturday. We don't get out as much as we use to so I had to take the opportunity to get some pictures of them dressed up. I think they turned out pretty cute!
