Christmas Day

It was fun having Grandma & Grandpa at our house Christmas Morning!

Here the girls come running in to see what Santa left them.

First item of business for Brooke was to go through her stocking.

Soon Aubrey followed suit.

Aubrey had made and wrapped homemade presents for everyone during the week. She was excited to hand them out to everyone.








Then we took the girls to see their big surprise from us - bunk beds! Jeff set them up on Christmas Eve night while Aubrey had a slumber party in Brooke's room.

The girls were super excited!

Checking out their new beds.

Yipee!


Then it was time to open presents. 


Then the best part of all, playing with all the new stuff!


Even cousin Tori played games with the girls.





I had made the girls matching nightgowns for them and their baby dolls. I was pleasantly surprised when the girls absolutely loved them!


I love these cute girls modeling their nightgowns and stompies.

Before bed the girls had fun teaching Beckham how to play the keyboard.

Bedtime stories with Grandma.
Then off to the bunk bed with their new nightgowns, dream lights, stompies & blankets. This was the most excited the girls have ever been to go to bed!

Aww, after a fun day the girls are sleeping peacefully!

Christmas Fun, Family Visitors & Christmas Eve

 When Grandma & Grandpa came to town we went and saw the drive through lights display.




Then Elliot, Katie & Tori got here. Here's Aubrey giving her lots of loves. 

Tori Clause. 

Brookie giving Tori loves. 

Now it's time to decorate cookies.


The best way to do it is to smoother the cookie with frosting and sprinkles.


Yummy!

Then the Carlile clan got here. The girls had fun playing with Beckham.


The kid table at dinner. Don't let the picture fool you, I think the toddlers only remained in their spot for the minute that I took the picture!

Aubrey loves to take care of little ones. Beckham liked her feeding him! 

Getting goody bags ready to play elves at a local Nursing Home. 

My elves are all ready to spread some Christmas Cheer.

They had a blast singing songs and handing out goody bags.

Several days before Christmas Eve, Aubrey wrote out a Nativity play script (including songs) and got together costumes. Look who decided to play baby Jesus.

The cute little angel telling Mary and Joseph they were going to have a baby. 

Sophie loved the manger!

The shepherds. 

The shepherds going to see baby Jesus.

Hugs for Sophie!

Grandma makes a good star. 

The wise man bringing gifts.

After the play my girls got to open one gift. 

Aubrey was super excited to get a Dream Light!

Brookie loved the princess play doh from Aubrey.

Getting a treat for Santa and his Reindeer.

Santa's a lucky one!

Putting baby Jesus in the manger that we were filling with hay all month. (Every time anyone did something kind they could put a piece of hay/yarn in the manger. We wanted to make it soft for baby Jesus to lay in on Christmas Eve.)
