Christmas

My mom got Katie a rocking horse that makes horse noises. JD enjoyed it too!

Christmas at my Dad's

We spent the afternoon and evening at my dad's. Christmas dinner was really good.

Christmas Day

We had a fabulous Christmas! The kids even let us sleep in until 9:30! That was a great present.








Katie helping herself to lots of fudge

Christmas Brunch at our house

Including us and kids we had 16 people at our house the day after Christmas for brunch. It was a lot of fun. I would definitely do it again!!

Cousin Gregory and JD

At Great Grandma's house

We took a break and went for a nice walk outside. I think Katie ran 3 blocks. I had a hard time keeping up with her so I had to hand JD off to a cousin.

Santa

Katie asked Santa for stickers. She asked me for chocolate and cake. She asked Grandma B for a red present and for a green one for JD. All her wishes came true. Grandma even got her a red (ok dark pink) bear and a green frog for JD. If only Christmas wishes stayed this simple. Katie was at a great age for Christmas. She enjoyed each of her presents before we moved on to the next. We didn't even open them all because she was enjoying what she had. We talked about Jesus and I think she understood a little bit.
