We had a fabulous Christmas break and we're now back in the swing of things and playing catch up. On Christmas Eve we headed to Idaho to visit my (Cassie's) parents and sister.
The kids were so much fun this year! They'd been looking forward to Christmas and counting down days the entire month. Megan got a kitchen and a tea set that she loves and plays with daily.
Megan took her time carefully unwrapping each present.
My siblings and I all pitched in to buy our dad this 4 burner gas grill. He LOVED it!
Gavin got this cool remote controlled car. He's pretty good at driving it, and Megan is terrified of it and screams when in comes near her, so that makes it extra fun for Gavin to play with.
On Christmas Eve we acted out the Christmas story. The kids were very attentive and mostly reverent.
Megan played the role of Mary.

My parents have a cardboard gingerbread house that we colored and set up. The kids loved it!
I'm part of a group of moms that writes and performs plays at our local library. We performed "The Elf Who Stole Christmas" for elementary schools, storytime groups, and the public a week before Christmas. It was busy, but a lot of fun!
