Our Very Own Christmas!

We had such a fantastic christmas this year with the girls. I must say that there is something special about waking up on Christmas morning to the excitement of 4 year olds! Priceless!! Here are a few pictures from Christmas Eve (getting the cookies ready for Santa) & Christmas morning. We hope you all had a joyfull Christmas!

Christmas Eve
Look what Santa left!
I heard it took Santa 2 1/2 hrs. to put this thing together!
Their reaction to their gifts from Santa: Priceless!
One of Bailey & Addison's favorite gifts! A skirt!!

Christmas with Nana & Grandad

A week before Christmas we got together with my side of the family to celebrate Christmas. Like always, my parents went over & above what they should have (apparently they REALLY love their grandkids!). We went out to dinner at Johnny Carino's, YUMMY, then back to their house to open gifts. The girls absolutly ate it up!! This is such a fun age. The looks on their faces when they would open each gift was priceless!! Thank you Nana & Grandad (Mom & Dad) for such a wonderful Christmas! We are beyond blessed to have such generous & loving parents!

Christmas Cookies!!

We went over to my Mom's house a few weeks ago to decorate Christmas cookies. I think the pictures say it all. Enjoy!

Addison concentrating sooooo hard!
These should be on the cover of a magazine!

Our friend Kim also came over to help us decorate cookies! What would we do without her?

Christmas with Gran & Gramps

We had a little bit of an early Christmas with Johnathan's Dad's side early in December. It is always so much fun to get together with The Packard's, Aunt Jen & Uncle D, & Pops. We were so glad that Gran & Gramps came up from Plano to celebrate with us! Enjoy the pictures!

Oh, Christmas Tree!

This is one of my favorite parts of the year! This year was a little bit sweeter because the girls were able to help decorate the Christmas tree. I loved watching their eyes light up when we turned on the lights to string around the tree & how they were so anxious to help put on every ornament we owned! I can still remember when they were 4 months old & we were able to fit them under the Christmas tree. Here are a few pictures of the girls decorating our tree. Enjoy!
