Christmas 2018

 
 All dressed up for Christmas Sunday. Chris was super excited about pictures.
 Matching Christmas girls
It will be a sad day when they don't want to match any more.
 There was plenty of snow at Uncle Jeremy's house, so we spent Christmas Eve morning sledding with the Hindman cousins. They built a ramp so they could sled right in the front yard. So much fun!
 A little snowball fighting

 Kate slept through her first sledding trip in the Moby wrap.

 We all went back to Jeremy's house for Christmas Eve dinner, followed by a live nativity. Sarah played Mary this year, Chris was an (unwilling) sheep, and Kate was the cutest little baby Jesus that ever was. 

 We went home and got our treats ready for Santa. We decided he was tired of cookies and would probably rather have some of Grandma's Christmas candy and a drink of water.

 Christmas morning!


 Sarah asked Santa for a blue toy umbrella, and he did not disappoint. 

 Santa brought Chris a bunch of Hot Wheels cars and tracks. They were a big hit with everyone.

 Kate's first Christmas morning. 
 I found this stable and Katy re-painted it for Sarah's toy horses. She opened it and said, "look a stable." It was a very underwhelming reaction. 
 That's the reaction I was hoping for on the stable. Giggling about the Yeti in My Spaghetti game.
 Presenting Kate with her quilt

 This is how Kate felt about Christmas. 

I didn't get a picture, but Kelson got me an awesome surprise for Christmas. When we went to Leavenworth in October, I fell in love with a large mirror at an antique shop, but decided against buying it because it was too expensive. Kelson snuck away and managed to purchase it and sneak it home without me knowing. I love it!
 Stocking time!
 Enjoying a tea party with her new tea set while we waited for the cousins to get there.
 Chris is obsessed with pushing number buttons, so he got an adding machine in his stocking. He spent the rest of the day playing with it.
Opening presents with the whole family can get a little crazy. Chris found a good spot to hide out in this box.
 All ready for Christmas dinner
 Kate enjoyed dinner from her swing
 We had such a fun Christmas day with everyone at Grandma & Grandpa's house!
Once we got the stable home, it turned out to be a hit after all. Bonus that it is big enough for kids to climb in, not just the toy horses!
