Merry Christmas

Lucy and Lily getting ready for the Nativity. What sweet little angels. Lucy told Lyndsey she needed her hair curled for the family Christmas party because she was going to be an angel and angels are pretty.

Grant was Joseph and Oilve was Mary. Olive insisted on wearing the wise man crown. So she's Mary with a princess crown. 

Uncle Joey played a great donkey. 

For some reason I didn't get any pictures of the wise men and shephards but they did a good job too. 

Adam took this pic of the boys a couple of days before Christmas. 

Hooray ! Christmas morning. It was so fun to have Grant around this year. He was super excited about all things Christmas. And I won't lie, we did use the "if you're not nice Santa won't come" threat a couple of times. It was actually pretty awesome and totally worked! I wish we could use it all year round. Oh, and do you love that fuzzy, magenta robe I'm wearing? It was the first present I opened and possibly my favorite. I know it's really attractive, and it's the MOST comfortable thing I have ever put in on in my life. Adam is kicking himself for giving it to me becuase it's definitely the next best thing to just being in your underwear, and if you know me I hate clothes. So I might never get dressed again. 

Do you notice the time day? Pitch black outside? Don't worry, this is the time Grant wakes up EVERY morning. 

Santa brough Grant this awesome track. There are two little Jeeps that go on it automatically. Of course he didn't care about opening any other presents once he started playing this. 

Pez was his next favorite present. Oh and Adam says not to mind his "white t-shirt."

Davis's favorite was of course the tissue paper! 

Serioulsy, you need to get yourself one of those fuzzy robes. Besides the softness another feature I love is that it zips in the front. So I guess it's a "housecoat" but Adam would rather me refer to it as a robe.

Our 8:00 am Christmas morning family photo.

Christmas afternoon we went to my parents for the cousins gift exchange, white elephant game, talent show and Christmas dinner. This is the only picture I took... the three boys! Grandma gave them all matching sweaters but Pierce forgot to wear his. Next Christmas they are all going to be running around having fun together. From left to right, Lyndsey's Pierce, My Davis, and Meghan's Hank. I love Hank's serious face! Hope you all had a Merry Christmas!
