Christmas Morning

I love our quaint little christmas morning waking up in our house to see what santa has brought! The girls came in at 2:30 wanting to see if santa had come! They said they saw shadows of toys! LOL. We made them lay back down.. I woke up around 7:30 and started making some noise because I was ready to see!! We had  wonderful morning then headed over to Gigi's house to see uncle casey !

 Woohoo, we made the nice list at the last minute!

 You don't know Christmas until you see it through your childs' eyes

 so excited Santa ate some of her cookies

 tinkerbelle! Or pinkerbelle as Maddy says

 helping Hank with his stocking

 showing him his new bowls and blanket for our road trip in March!

 Maddy stopped to eat, Em did not

 they were nuts about unwrapping this year!

 this was actually Dad's present they stole!

 after math of a wonderful morning spent with my family

 Daddy gave us the go ahead on a Disney trip! WOOP! Disney 2016 here we come!

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve is a busy day around here ! We start our Santa cookies fairly early in the morning so we have time for Maddy to grab a quick nap before church and dinner ! Cookies were a messy blast as usual but the kids love it so cookies we make ! 

Elf left one last surprise! Cookie supplies !

Before church 

She loves her shin so much 

Waiting for the service 

Cool fake candles !

I know I shouldn't during service but I loved when they stood on the chairs and held hands 

Dinner !

Santa lifts the magic for the girls to hug him goodbye before he leaves! It's one of their favorite things to do, they're so happy to hug and tell him thank you 

And he leaves a book while we're at church 

Nutcracker !

Reindeer food !

The cookies are out! 

Look at that 2 year old :) 

She had some of his milk 

More often than not they sleep together now :) 

Santa came! 

Hehe

They came in at 2 and I made them go back to bed in my bed ;)
