Merry Christmas, Part One

"It's the little memories that will last a lifetime."

As our family grows, so do the memories! This is the first year that we actually had Christmas at our house before Christmas, and I really enjoyed it!  I love having everyone here, and I also love making new memories that I hope we will always cherish!  We will go to Lindsey's for Christmas Eve, so that we will be there for the babies to open their presents.  I just can't wait for that! I will miss Caleb and Taylor, but I plan to be back in time to see them on Christmas Day.

When we asked Josh and Lindsey to recommend  a gift for the babies, they suggested the Step 2 roller coaster, which I had never heard of before!!  However, it was a huge hit.........after we got it off the hill on the second lot that nearly sent them flying into the woods! It was very entertaining for all three!



This sweet girl simply makes my heart smile!!


And so does her big sister!



Reed only rode with them a few times!  He liked doing it all by himself!!


Maddie once again had a ball on the go cart-until a tire blew!!  We had lots of fun watching all the fun!


After lunch, we gathered to open presents.  Maddie read a poem on the Christmas Story for us!  It was a wonderful way to begin this time together.


I love watching everyone open their presents!!


Easy bake oven, tee pee, Frozen Karaoke, tool bench, and more!  My favorite part is their sweet,sweet smiles!! 



Papa enjoyed his day!


First Christmas as husband and wife!  We have been blessed with both a great son in law and daughter in law!!


Back to opening presents!!


Maddie is growing up so very fast!!


Helping Reed with his presents was enjoyable for all!



Lindsey took a few pictures of these sweeties before we ate our Christmas supper.


Our little Santa was ready for bed in his Santa pajamas!! Could he be any cuter?


After enjoying the Cantata together Sunday morning, Caleb and Taylor headed to Gordo and Lindsey, Josh and the babies headed home, but not before lots and lots of memories were made!!
                                                         Merry, Merry Christmas!!!!
