Twas the night before Christmas...

It was here then it was gone!! We had fun on Christmas Eve making our cupcakes for baby Jesus and cookies for Santa. They were really excited all day. We even took them for a long walk hoping to run off some energy! We left on Christmas Day for Nashville, then a quick trip to see Brian's grandparents on Friday , then Josh's birthday party in UC on Sat. Needless to say I still have bags in the dining room that I need to unpack but wanted to post pictures instead!!



Helping make the cupcakes for baby Jesus and cookies for Santa

Showing off their cookies

Licking the spoon!

Watching Daddy put out the reindeer food and listening for Santa.

Is he in the sky ?!!

The big sword! He also got a smaller sword and hook from Aunt Susan and thinks he is a real pirate now!

Look what Santa left. This is what Nate was trying to tell Jenna as she was pushing him down the stairs! That girl was moving!

She played all morning with her dolls.

He made a track around the house.

But of course every digger needs a load to carry!

She loved it!

It was a little hard to get around the corners.

Opening presents at Nanny and Pa's later that day.

They got to open one early.

Gotcha now Nate!

He was rarely seen after this without his sword tucked in his pants or his hook in his hand!
