Christmas Eve/Day At Our House

We have so many pictures from the past week (between Christmas and Benjamin's birthday). So I'm going to break them down into multiple posts. First up is our family Christmas celebration. We had a lot of fun this year. Benjamin understands so much and I really enjoyed talking all about Jesus with him and experiencing all the fun times Christmas brings.

Collin loves to be talked to and it makes Benjamin so happy when Collin smiles or coos back at Benjamin.

Love those sleepy smiles....

Benjamin dressed up for Christmas Eve Service. He's posing with the gingerbread house he made with me and Anna and the Birthday cake we made for Jesus. The kids had so much fun singing Happy Birthday to Jesus this year.

Opening Christmas Eve presents. Anna got some fancy keys and Benjamin got a big tape measurer.

Benjamin also made these fun chocolate crosses.

Christmas Morning - Opening their stockings......

They got new aquadoodles from Santa that are a lot of fun to play with in the car.

Anna really likes her new baby doll that she can play with in the bath.

Benjamin checking out his new paints.

New tea set for Anna.

Benjamin bringing out the big present of the morning.

Ripping open the paper to discover a new piano!

The kids "helping" Daddy put the piano together.

Anna decided to get in with her baby for the baby's first bath as any good Mom would! :)

Benjamin really enjoys making up songs and loves using the microphone on the piano.

Collin slept through the present fun. Here he is after waking up, I assume he's thinking "What kind of craziness am I waking up to?"

Benjamin was kind enough to open Collin's stocking and presents for him.

Anna enjoying her candy stick that came in her stocking.

Merry 1st Christmas Collin!!!!

Lucky Collin gets loving from all around him!

Benjamin showing Collin his glo-worm.

My three babies!

Just some fun picture editing I did. (I caught Daddy and Collin having some quiet time that morning.)

While I was packing up so we could head to our extended family Christmas get-togethers, Benjamin and Anna discovered they could both fit on the airplane and were tickled pink about it!

Stay tuned for more Christmas and birthday posts. Can't guarantee when, but they will come eventually!
