We had a great Christmas this year and the kids were perfect ages to be excited about just about everything. We started Christmas Eve by decorating our gingerbread cookies.
After a delicious feast, we got together everyone for our Nativity play.
This year we even had a very cute and married Joseph and Mary (who decided to go for a more realistic pre-manger look).
Here are the shepherds listening to the angel.
And here is our little nativity scene, with an angel holding the star.
The we opened up some Christmas pajamas for some very happy kids.
Then they listened to some Christmas stories...
and set out their stuff for the big man.
Christmas morning was very exciting they got great presents (yes, this is a popcorn maker, and yes she was thrilled.)
Ian was a very energetic un-wrapper.
Justin was a little spoiled and was pretty excited about it.
Ian loved his huge pillows that Rachel designed and helped make for him and was excited about his robot too.
Rachel was pretty thrilled about this fun glow art station.
Our Josie is a late riser and got up just as the big kids were finishing up. She couldn't quite figure out what was going on, but was pretty delighted to find things just for her.
Here is a snapshot of our Christmas break - everyone playing Just Dance 2. It has literally been hours of fun (and hours of soreness afterwards). Rachel can rock the Bollywood dance and Ian's favorite is Monster Mash.
And for some random shots of the day...
Yeah, it was a fun day. We hope that everyone had a great Christmas too!
