Christmas Time!

I love love love love love LOVE Christmas! From Thanksgiving to New Years I feel like I'm wrapped in a happy blanket.


For Jason's parents' present I took this pic of the kids and had it made into a mouse pad! Missy's blanket made and excellent background.
On Christmas Eve we made our first ever gingerbread cookies!




The kids opened their grandma presents before going to bed-- jammies for the girls and a blanket for Josh!



And here's everybody with their favorite presents:



Josh's was a spy car. Why oh WHY did I let him wear those PJ's on Christmas?? He has at least two pairs of red plaid pajama pants that FIT him....

So Missy had a very froggy Christmas. She asked for a frog pillow pet, her grandma gave her froggy jammies, and my awesome friend Jodi made her a frog quilt!




That evening Noelle and Corban came over to play games, and the kids dressed Corelle up in Mandie's new dress-up stuff.


We had a very fun New Year's too! We made Chinese food (won-tons, orange chicken, and fried rice) and lots of treats, and stayed up as late as possible watching movies! Jason and I managed to stay up all night. We were pretty proud.

I love seeing the pictures of your grown up kids...so weird that our kids are going to be teenagers so soon. It's such a different stage!
