Christmas Day

This post is going to have a ton of pictures from Christmas Day, but should be the last of the Christmas posts. 

Our morning started out at about 6:15. Lily woke up first and we had to wake Avery to let her know that Santa came. I videoed the girls reactions so there aren't really any pics of it. But they loved everything. 

The girls Santa loot. 







The stockings. Avery immediately found the milk straws and had to test them out. 







She also had to have a yogurt break. 


Lily's first board game. Candyland! 



And them some new stories.



They both really enjoyed their new dress up stuff. 


and Ave had to try out Lily's new winter coat. 





My favorite picture! This girl is too cute. 


Nathan's family came over around 11 to exchange gifts. 


I don't think Avery liked her present at all. Ha


Around 1pm we went over to my Sisters house for dinner and yet more gift exchanging. Avery skipped her nap and both girls were pretty tired. 


My sweet Nan-Nan. (she would flip if she new her picture was on the internet) : ) 


My sissy and Baxter. 


bro in law, father in law and hubs. 


Lily did a checkup on Nan-Nan with her new Doc McStuffins doctor kit. 



And more gift opening. We were all spoiled, but had a great day. 




Happy New Year Everyone!

Christmas Through Instagram

Hello, Happy Friday. Today I am going to share the pics from my cell from the past couple of weeks.

Lily really enjoyed this early Christmas gift from Anthony. I had a microphone like this as a little girl and loved it. 


Just some fort making. 


and snacking. 


and relaxing. 


Sometimes the cheapest toys are the most fun. 


This one is a handful. She knew she was being naughty and didn't care at all. 



Relaxing for Mommy!


So it was Christmas eve and Lily needed some reminding of how to behave if she wanted Santa to visit. She insisted that Daddy was being naughty too. He ended up with way more naughty marks than her. 


Ho, Ho, Ho. 



Christmas Eve toon watching. 


Jammies waiting after their bath. 


Christmas eve carnage. 


I love this picture. She was watching Brave, wearing her Cinderella dress and holding Rapunzel. 


And Avery doing some early morning bouncing with her gift from Grammy and Pop Pop. This was  probably 6:30 am. These girls are nuts. 



I love that you can capture awesome with just your cell phone.

Christmas Eve


Hope everyone had a great Christmas! We had a awesome one. We are so blessed with great family and friends. We hosted Christmas Eve at our house this year. The girls loved it, and we had a blast with yummy food, fun and family. 

The food spread....



 Doesn't every family have Chirstmas eve wrestling?


Lily, Daddy and Uncle Mike decorated some popcorn balls. 



After lots of fun, the girls got in their Christmas jammies and picked out cookies for Santa. 



Then the girls had to make them special for Santa with icing and sprinkles!



And we couldn't forget the Reindeer. We had to sprinkle our reindeer food on the front lawn!




Finally, we read 'Twas The Night Before Christmas' in front of the tree. 



The girls headed off to bed and Santa came shortly after! 

And the only family pic we got. 


And a sweet one of my girl, that Lily took!
