Christmas

This Christmas was so fun, the kids were at such fun ages and we loved having my mom visiting too.  

We had Grandma and Grandpa Lewis and Rick and Kyle over for Christmas Eve for dinner and a little program.  This is a picture we got of Kate and Kyle telling the Christmas story.

 One last pregnant picture, our little bundle arrived 3 days later.

 The kids got to open pajamas on Christmas Eve and we played a game too--Jenga

 Not quite as artistic as we had planned...but I love it!

 We put some delicious cookies out for Santa and some reindeer food too.

 Scott got a Rescue Bot from Santa--just what he wanted!  Santa is good!

 Kate got Strawberry Shortcake dolls

 Austin got the Chase Rescue Bot

Jeff got his beloved Soft Batch Cookies

Grandma Packer got a special quote--a lot of dreams came true that morning!

I made this robe for Kate, I was pretty proud of it!

This is Kate's present to Dad, lots of his favorite candy bars.

Scott got me a slinky, once I got it out of the box, Scott asked if I wanted to trade.

Austin picked out this little snowman for Dad--at the store he was sure this is what dad would love most!

Grandma Lewis came over in the afternoon--Grandpa Lewis was really sick so he couldn't come.

The next day, they opened Grandma Packer's present, we didn't get more pictures then this, darnit!

These are some pictures from Grandma Packer's camera:

It was such a magical day--we spread it out all morning--opening a present, then playing with it for a while--then went and had a big breakfast--then played some more. It was such a nice day.
