We had a wonderful Christmas this year!! We have had such a busy year and have felt so blessed. Christmas Eve we started the morning off by having Marshmellow Matey's--I know healthy huh? This was a new tradition we started this year that every Christmas Eve morning the kids get to have cereal of their choice. Kelsey picked out Marshmellow Matey's at the store. Unfortunatley they both only ate the marshmellows--yumm and yes, double healthy!! The rest of the afternoon we spent coloring pictures and making sugar cookies for Santa. I watched two of my friend's girls while they were packing a moving truck--they were moving a day after Christmas. That evening we had a special Christmas Eve program. We watched the Nativity and then talked about Jesus and why we give gifts at Christmas. We sang some songs. Mylee requested that we sing Popcorn Popping, so we did. The girls then opened some Christmas jammies that I sewed for them and some lanterns that they can only use on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning (another new tradition). We talked about light and how light reminds us of Jesus. The girls thought that was pretty neat. Kelsey was so excited she had a hard time going to sleep that night, but eventually dosed off around 10:30 or 11 PM.
Mylee mostly just ate the frosting and M&M's

Mylee's new baby. She carries it around on her back and it says "Momma, Da da, cries, and laughs" When her baby does one of those things she says, "What baby?" or if she cries she says, "Baby crying."
Oh the excitement!!

Christmas morning Blake made a fire in our fireplace and then the fire alarm went off because we forgot to open the flu, opps. I then set it off again when the sticky buns in the oven over-flowed and started a small fire in the oven!! Other then those two mishaps, the day was wonderful! It was such a joy to see our girls open presents and see the excitement on their faces. That evening we had a nice dinner. Blake cooked us up some delicious prime rib and we had salad, orange rolls and a fruit salad along with sparkling cider for a drink. Dinner was a hit. Mylee kept wanting more prime rib--she loved it.
