Christmas 2012

I can't believe it is over already! We had a really nice Christmas this year.

We spent Christmas Eve day with Tyler's family. We had yummy Mexican food and the kids (and a few of the grown ups) did the Nativity. I was a zombie and took zero pictures.

When we got home Papa was here waiting for us.
We made our cookies for Santa.

 Nathan took extra time to make his special.

After the kids went to bed Santa came and this is what we woke up too.

We forgot to take an "after" picture...
Josh and Sarah came over while we were still in our pjs. Josh gave Nathan two frogs in an awesome tank for Christmas, so we now have pets!

After we got ready and played for a little bit we had a really yummy lunch with the family, then took it easy for the rest of the day.

We were so glad to have Eric, Chelsea, her cute daughter Ara, and my Dad here since we don't get to see them very often, but missed my mom. We know she knows we love her and missed her though!

The kids have been having so much fun with all their new toys, and I am finally getting to sit down and catch up on blogging while they are occupied. And we have all had this entire week off! Yippee!

I'll never forget Josh and his 'reptiles' - I loved watching them at your house!! What a nice Christmas! I love the cookies and carrots. We didn't do that this year, but we're planning on it for sure in 2013. :) Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Were you sick as a zombie? I hope you feel better :o\

Thankfully I wasn't sick, just SUPER tired~ pretty sure I looked like a zombie too, haha

I'll join in the zombie ranks! Haha! Seriously though...

I think your Christmas centerpieces look so cute, and I LOVE Ava's holiday dress!! I ran out of time and patience to do sugar cookies at all (even bought a boxed mix). Yours turned out adorable.

We're excited for Eric and his fiancee. Glad you got to be part of the action!
