Christmas, part 1

 Bowling just might be a new tradition for Christmas Eve- both our kids had a blast with their cousins. As it turns out, Jenna is a good bowler like her dad. Adam was highly entertained for the first game, but was ready to quit when I was. We skipped out a little early.

  We had pizza for lunch, and then our annual 'Nativity' reenactment. Can you tell that Jenna is a shepherd?

   I got to fill in as Mary, and at that point Adam was excited to participate (thus needing a costume).

   Adam was his usual cranky self, only wanted David or I to talk to him, and as it turned out, he was also exhausted enough to fall asleep. He stayed like this through most of the gift giving and dessert having.

  

   We made it home, took Adam's temperature, administered Tylenol, took baths and got on our new Christmas pajamas's.

  Jenna came in at 7:15 ready to see her presents, but brother was crying. We gave more medicine, and proceeded to check out their loot. Jenna rushed to find her Littlest Pet Shop Tree House that Santa left out of the box for her to play with, but Adam needy extra cuddles before he would even touch his Pirate Ship. We found a show he wanted to watch, the medicine kicked in, and then he was thrilled to see the pirates.

  Church is at 9am for one last week, so we didn't open all the gifts, and got ready for church. Don't you just love Adam's face?! Goof ball!

   I like this one a little better. I had planned to make Jenna's dress and was overjoyed when a friend loaned me the pattern to make his matching tie. How cute are they all matchy-matchy!?!??

  Here they are again, after church exploring their goodies.

Merry Christmas Everyone!
