Boxing Day!

For Boxing Day, we headed over to Deedee's house for a leftovers feast and some sledding fun.  The kids built a mogul to hump their sleds over, and boy, did we have FUN!!! 

Christmas Day

Christmas Eve

Fun was had by all. Traditionally, we open our presents from family on Christmas Eve, and Santa comes and brings more presents for the morning. It breaks it up a little for the kids and allows them to not be so overwhelmed. :) Plus, I usually can't wait much longer!

Sugar and Spice!

Joyeux Noel!

First I have to show off my big girl for a bit... Isn't she beautiful? She looks like such a big girl lately. SO beautiful and rockin' her skinny jeans!

She let me curl her hair last night for dinner out with friends. Most days, I have to wrestle her down to get a comb through it, so this was a pleasant surprise!! :)

John's face absolutely cracks me up in this picture!!

And I In My Cap...

The children were nestled all snug in their beds,

While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads;

And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,

Had just settled down for a long winter's nap.
