Christmas Celebrations

Christmas Eve was a fun day for the girls and I to just play around the house. We made a Gingerbread House, did a few Christmas crafts, made cookies for Santa, and played at the park. That afternoon, we got dressed and headed to church. Church was a beautiful candlelight service, with all 3 girls with us. The best part of that was when Reagan whispered in my ear, "Mommy, see that lady behind us.....she's prettier than you!". Nice, my sweet girl. I actually knew what she meant.....the lady had a very sparkly dress and big earrings and Reagan was impressed with her jewels. After service we went out to dinner with friends.

Here we are, just home from church.

The girls headed outside to sprinkle reindeer food throughout the yard.

Then they headed inside to prepare cookies for Santa.

Addison wrote him a note, she wanted to make sure he took a cookie to our elf, "Buddy"!

All set in Christmas jammies, being silly before bed. This girl LOVES to stand on her head.

I LOVE reading to all 3 girls in my rocking chair.

When the girls woke up, Gracyn found her new Bitty Baby right away. She loves baby "Laney".

Addison had fun checking out all her stocking goodies.

Daddy and his girls looking at their stockings. We saw what Santa brought, went through the stockings and then had a cinnamon roll breakfast before opening the rest of the presents.

Gracyn and I piled high with presents.

Reagan got operation, which we have had a great time playing.

Matching jammies for girls and babies, from Aunt Tressia and Uncle Bryan were a BIG hit!

They also loved their bouncing princess ball.

We had such a nice long morning just playing and enjoying each other. One of the girls favorite gifts was a Build-A-Bear make your own animal. I spent a good part of the morning helping each girl sew them together. We then ate a big lunch and headed to the park. That evening we drove around looking at Christmas lights. It was a great day together. We are already looking forward to next year.
