Christmas

Christmas Eve
Our Christmas eve consisted of riding bikes in the culdesac, dinner, driving around to see lights (we have several of those houses in our city that have TONS of lights are set to music etc, pretty fun to watch--Heidi exclaimed "WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW!" in her tiny high pitched voice over and over--made the drive worth it) dessert, opening pj's that I tried to make for the kids (Nicole's nightgown she can wear for the next few years since I tried to size it up a bit--woops, patterns run large and she is small) Nicole playing Christmas songs on the piano while we sang, reading the Christmas story and finally BED!! Wow were they wound up. Fortunately they were up later than usual and went right to sleep for the most part.







Here are their visions of sugar plums:




Devouring the stockings:




And present time!






Santa brought a Foosball, air hockey, pool, ping pong table for the kids.

Wagon rides

Isaac trying out his erector set
Nicole trying out my gift!
Daddy trying out Isaac's gift--those skate boarding skills still come in handy at times
Hoping all these will keep Nicole occupied for the break
And our Lego Maniac hard at work
