Christmas 2011

Christmas finally came and it was such a great day. I made breakfast pizza, it is so easy and so yummy. After we ate breakfast we opened gifts. We visited Grandma and Papa and just relaxed for a lot of the day, which was nice because we are usually running like crazy. What a great family I have.

Christmas Eve 2011

Christmas Eve is Grams birthday. We had dinner at Papa and Grandma's with Pop, Gram, the Triptow's , Francom's, and all of the Blodgett's. After dinner we did a gift exchange with the cousins and they really liked that. They were able to decorate cookies for Santa and when we got home they opened up there new Christmas jammies. We exchanged our family gifts and then it was off to bed to wait for Santa. What a fun night that we spend with the ones we love the most. That's what Christmas is all about. FAMILY!!!

Soccer

Ethan has been playing soccer for about 3 years with arsenal. He has improved so much. It is so much fun to go to his games. He is such a talented kid. Love him!

Santa

We visited Santa at South Town Mall. They were so nice and let me snap a quick photo. Christmas is such a wonderful time of year! Little cuties.

Favorite things

I have done a Favorite Things Party for the last three years. This year I had everyone bring two fifteen dollar gifts and a favorite food item. We always have so much fun. We had great favorite gifts and food! I love my friends.

Nativity

In December for joy school we did a little Nativity Christmas program. It was right after Abigale's dance recital so it was a busy night. Dawson was Joseph and he wanted a bazooka. I had to explain that Joseph probably didn't have a bazooka. Then when him and Mary were with baby Jesus he kept pulling the babies eyes open and was saying " OPEN YOUR EYES," over and over. I was laughing so hard but once I composed myself I got him to be more gentle with the baby! It was so cute. He is so darling.
