Santa's Comin' To Town...

Before I headed off to bed I wanted to wish all of my dear family and friends a Merry Christmas. Even though we spent this holiday alone, we still found ways to entertain ourselves. Mine of course was taking pictures, Larry cooked and the kids...well every day is a holiday to them!


Emma's Gingerbread House


Sydney's Gingerbread House


Emma is changing into such a beautiful little girl!


Emma loves her little bro!
I adore these flowers!

They came from our wonderful neighbors.

Who knew I could get such spectacular flowers for a box of homemade cookies! Daddy narrates the Nativity Story for us to hear.

Sydney dressed as our Mary and wrapped up her own baby Jesus.

Ben is Joseph, a Shepard and a Wise Man. He's a man of many talents!

Emma the precious Angel

For one of my favorite traditions we have the kids open 1 gift on Christmas Eve...

Here's Ben with his.

This is the best picture I could get of Ben showing off his new pj's.

Emma opens her gift.

She gets new monkey slippers.

Don't you just love the bananas?

Sydney opens her gift.

She gets new bunny slippers!

So the stockings are hung with care...

And the cookies & milk are out for Santa...

the kid-o's are off to bed with sugar plums

dancing in their heads.
