Mom wanted a picture with of all the grandkids on Christmas Eve....
Let's just say - Not happening
Christmas morning (Titus was up all night for some reason so we pulled him in bed with us and he was fast asleep when it was time to open stockings.)
Instead of hiding the presents, Nana hid clues around the house that led us to another clue and then another and then finally back to her for the last clue. The presents were altogether in the dryer. :)
Titus and T. loved playing with the cousins' tic tacs.
Lily wanted to do a play so she wrote scripts for all the cousins and with some help from Uncle Johnny and Uncle Alton, the kids put on a wonderful nativity.
Phoebe had the most lines. Haha - she was the angel.
J was a good sport letting Lily dress him up as a gypsy... oh I mean wise man. And Kellen and Lily were so funny when the shepherd (M) and wise man (J) came to praise the newborn King. They shoot their hands and said Thanks for coming. :)
Uncle Alton passed out the kids' gifts.
Lily and M love to pretend they are twins so they got the same dolls for Christmas so they can play twins with their dolls.
Lily used her AWANA shares and bought Christmas presents for people - this was a Hello Kitty doll for Phoebe.
and a piggy bank for M
Kellen got a librarian kit since he wants to be a librarian when he grows up.
Ti got a soft bowling set - perfect for a boy who loves balls and knocking things down.
Can you tell, Phoebe loves Hello Kitty?
Tessa got a play kitchen and pots and pans!
For our little Sweet Tooth
I think we might have this picture every year. :)
We had an International Christmas dinner theme this year.
taco dip, sushi, italian salad, bruschetta,
Italian creme soda, egg rolls, Indonesian chicken, Swedish meatballs, German potato salad
We missed my brother and his wife, but the best Christmas present of all was that their little daughter was born a few days before Christmas!
Aunt Valerie was on Facetime with us...
