Merry Christmas!

On the Sunday before Christmas we got some pictures taken before church






We made sugar cookies




I got this from a client


Henry approved of the cookies




Lyza friend gave her a late birthday gift


We watched Home Alone as a family and the kids thought it was the funniest thing ever



One night we took a drive to see some Christmas lights




The ones set to music were lots of fun


Nixon lost a tooth


Nixon was super helpful wrapping caramels


We had some friends over for Christmas Eve dinner


The kids did a Nativity


Lyza and Nixon (and Mason) did a little piano recital


I love the note Lyza left for Santa: "Please give Lyza's new pet hamster Donut presents too"


This is what the tree looked like before the little ones woke up on Christmas morning


These two were first to look into their boots


Henry was happy there was a candy cane in his boot


He also had lots of foil wrapped chocolates to keep him busy


And a tooth brush to use right after



Santa left Donut a new hamster house


Mason was excited to get a robot


Henry got a bunch of hot wheels cars, a car carrier, and lots of track for his cars


He has really liked these cars


Nixon got a remote controlled drone


Lyza got a 3D pen


The big kids were both happy to get lots of books



A unicorn bathrobe?!


Trying out the drone


Mason getting to know his robot


Henry was excited for this gift


A new drone


Henry had so much fun tearing open the paper


Kim got some fitness bands to help build her biceps


A Nightmare Before Christmas puzzle


I got some cool new PJ's/work clothes


And a GoPro


Kim got some new running shoes


We got family passes to Silverwood


Nixon made the cutest Christmas ornament


Kim got a new upright freezer


New coloring stuff



Since we didn't have any snow for Christmas Henry and I decided to play outside



It was all fun and games until Henry fell


Lyza lost a tooth on Christmas day


One of the gifts we got looks a little defective


Look at all of those family games


The kids have been having a lot of fun with their car tracks


On Christmas evening it snowed a lot so the next day we got to go sledding


The kids also really enjoyed playing with these huge snow balls


We hope you had a wonderful Christmas
