I know this is a few weeks late, but what does everyone say? better late than never? :)
We hope you and your families had a wonderful Christmas holiday. We sure did! It was our first Christmas in our new house and it was fun (and somewhat challenging) to decorate!
We have a tradition, of sorts, of opening a few gifts on Christmas Eve, so that it won't be so overwhelming Christmas morning. Here's Olivia picking out a gift or two to open:
And here's Caleb doing the same...it took a bit of coaxing for him to realize he wasn't going to get in trouble for ripping the paper. I guess that's what a few weeks of "Caleb don't touch!" will do to a boy...
Christmas morning dawned early this year...Olivia crawled in our bed at 5:30! We had lots of fun opening gifts with the kids!
New football? Awesome!
New activity table - so he can STAND UP and play.
New socks - in her favorite colors, of course!
Can you say "chaos?" We had to be careful or Caleb would get lost in all the wrapping paper!
Levi's parents, Joe and Melba Jackson, came to visit for Christmas this year. Olivia always loves it when her grandparents come to our house - undivided attention and captive playmates!!
Later in the afternoon we went to the clubhouse of our community and played some pool! Olivia liked to help hold the stick. She did pretty well! Maybe we'll have to play more often!
Again, we hope you all had a lovely Christmas. we are blessed to have each of you in our lives. Stay tuned for our 2012 recap, coming soon! :)
