Our Own Little Christmas!


After our evening of worship and family fun, we made it home late Christmas Eve. The kids were in a daze, but still had enough energy left to prepare for Santa and his reindeer. Reindeer food in the front yard to lure Rudolph and pals into our yard...

"Here Cali girl!" Wade trying to entice Cali over to taste it
Bree just followed Wade around like a little puppy dog, wondering why she couldn't go to bed yet
Careful selection of carrots and cookies for Santa and crew
Set just right in front of the fireplace
And look what happened when we all were tucked in to bed!!! Santa left his snowy white footprints all through the house!

When Wade woke-up, he was begging to open the big box with his name on it. And look what was in it!

POLAR EXPRESS TRAIN!!! This was the only thing he asked Santa for, so good thing it was under the tree waiting for this excited train fanatic.

We immediately had to take it out of the box and on the tracks. Oh what fun!
Mommy got a really cool present too....a new camera!!! I had no idea Beau was planning this, but so excited! I feel like a complete imposter with this mega-camera for true professionals. I need lots of lessons and practice, but I already love the pictures it can take. LOVE IT!!!
By morning, Bree was sick with a fever and very fussy. She spent the morning (and most of the day) cuddled in my arms. Santa brought her a few little things, but not much. She's a low maintenance kind of gal. At least this year :) Wade took care of opening her presents...
This "Spy Train" from Cars 2 was a BIG HIT! I doubt Santa had any idea Wade would love it so much (when he added to the bag at the last minute)

Daddy and his kiddos

OUR FAMILY OF SIX!

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!
