Dec. 24th- We got to hang out at my mom's house and make cinnamon rolls with the girls. My mom is so patient with the girls in letting them help. It is always a special time when we get to spend time with my mom.

Emily was very excited to help my mom. |

We had a Christmas Eve service that evening at our church that was a wonderful time. We came home that night, and they each opened up one present which was jammies for them to wear to bed that night!
|
My kiddos with their new jammies |
|
Emily with her Hello Kitty jammies. She looks so happy in them, but her first reaction was sadness and crying as she wanted to have the same jammies as Anna which were Dora and purple (her favorite color). We took that opportunity to remind her to be thankful and not complain. Her attitude did change to thankfulness after a little pep talk. |

For Christmas,the girls opened their stockings in the morning.

Ready, Set, Go! |

Timothy is just happy! Not sure where his stocking is.... |
|
They all got electric toothbrushes which was very exciting for them. |
We went to my mom's house for brunch with my grandparents. The cinnamon rolls were AWESOME! Then, Tim and I took the girls to the zoo for a couple of hours(we still had our zoo passes and it was a nice day!). My mom kept Timothy with her. It was such a nice day at the zoo and not many people there on Christmas day!
