Christmas 2012

We had a wonderful Christmas this year with 3 of the Uncles joining us by Christmas Eve and then Grandpa Snow White and Grandma Debbie showing up the day after Christmas.  And even better - we experienced our first white Christmas!  It was fun to get a storm on Christmas Eve and wake up to fresh new snow.

On Christmas Eve we decorated some cookies for Santa, left some carrots for the reindeer, and did the Nativity story from the Bible before heading to bed in hopes that Santa would arrive.








We let the girls open up one present on Christmas Eve and they were very excited to get soft new dolls from Uncle Dale and Aunt Kelley.









The next morning, the girls woke up a little before 7 and wanted to see if Santa came to visit.  We had to wake up the Uncles first but we finally got them out of bed and were able to see that Santa did come!  I am calling Christmas 2012 the My Little Pony Christmas since that seemed to be the running theme.











We dressed up in our Christmas outfits the Sunday before Christmas (I promise Asher does wear socks and shoes)
