Presents from Grandma Dianna and Grandpa were a big hit. Maylee loves her baby and the boys love their new coloring books and "Spy" book. Obvious Carter was beside himself about the new box of crayons!
Christmas Even with the Bakers is a tradition. We got together with the Baker brothers and had soup bowls (I think three of us brought some sore of potato soup...funny) and then we do a nativity and talent show. The kids have a blast! There is lots of noise and lots of laughing. Drew and Emma were Mary and Joseph and were just adorable. Carter checked out about half way through the party since it was a little loud. He did bust a move a bit when the dancing was going on...wish I got a picture of that!
We ducked out of the bigger Baker family gathering with all the cousins. The kids were spent...and I was wiped. We made it home and the kids loved their Christmas jammies! (I had good intentions of making them jammy pants, but I cut the material wrong....needless to say I made a quick trip to Costco....) Jammies were followed by a reading of Twas the Night Before Christmas, putting out cookies and milk for Santa, reindeer food in the lawn, normal nightly routine, and topped off with checking to see where Santa is flying and actually HEARING his bells and "ho ho ho" outside!!!!
