Christmas 2010

Merry Christmas Eve at Mimi and Pops! We went to the Christmas Eve Candlelight Service and brought Hannah into the service. She was such a big girl. She was quiet, moved from me to Mimi, to Pops, and to Daddy quietly, did not play or talk loudly with Lillian, sang along with the beautiful carols and held the burning candle all by herself during the entire "Silent Night." After church, we headed to Mimi and Pops house for Mexican food and presents!

Hud loved Mimi's tree and her ornaments

We all helped Hudson open his presents... Hud got a new cowboy shirt and both kids got boots!
Hannah helped everyone else open theirs


Then we can home, set out our plate of milk and homemade chocolate chip cookies and went to bed hoping Santa would come.
I must say that I am slightly surprised given some of Hannah's recent behavior that Santa came... She had been on the "Naughty List" quite a bit! I guess he decided to look at her over all behavior for the year and was awfully generous.

We slept until 11am... And finally woke up to see if Santa had come!


Hud loves his new tractor!



Great Bubbe got them these new house shoes!
Santa even put together a Trampoline in our back yard on Christmas Eve! Hannah hasn't come inside. She loves her new "jump!"
She also got a whole trunk full of dress up clothes!





Granddad gave us a dancing Mickey!

Two things:

1. Everyone looks adorable! Love all of the pictures with Mimi and Pops, and I'm hoping we get to see the cowboy boots on both of the kids soon!

2. I CANNOT believe your kids both sleep until 11:00. What in the world and where can I buy some Midland water for L to drink? She was up at 6:15 on Christmas morning. Oh my goodness, so jealous.

Ha, so funny. Ellie was up before 7. 11:00--I haven't slept in that late since pre-kids! Looks like the kids are having a blast with their new toys! Looks like the kids will be able to break in their new boots this weekend! yee-haw!!!
