Christmas Week

I am wrapping up two straight weeks being off from work.  I enjoyed every single minute of my time off with the kids and I am so sad to think about going back.  No stress, no rushing, just fun and QT with the family. 

We kicked off Christmas week with school parties.  Cookie decorating, pj days, teach gift giving . . .

 

we decorated cookies for Santa with our neighbor friends . . .

we had a slumber party by the fire and Christmas tree . . .

we snuggled up watching Christmas movies in the afternoons . . .

we delivered Christmas dinners to families in OKC . . .

the kids crashed multiple times in the car, they were exhausted from all the fun . . .

Jackson got all clean shaved for Christmas Eve service :)  . . . 

We celebrated Christmas Eve with a fabulous church service and our annual Italian feast at Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Matt's house . . .

 

we celebrated Jesus's birthday with a cake . . .

the kids set out cookies, milk and  carrots for Santa and sprinkled reindeer food throughout the yard

 and they burst with excitement Christmas morning as they opened all their presents.  Every present was "what they have always wanted" :)

A few days after Christmas we loaded up and headed to Guymon to celebrate Christmas with mimi and papa.  Santa found us in Guymon and was the highlight of our Guymon Christmas.  The kids were blown away when they answered the door and Santa was there!  He even brought them a few presents that were missing Christmas morning.

December was a month to remember!  We made so many memories that will last a lifetime.  Just looking back through all the pictures brings a smile to my face and warms my heart.  Life is so fun through the eyes of three adorable children!
