God Gave Us Christmas

.... is probably one of my favorite books to read this Christmas season. The little cub was wondering who "invented Christmas?" It's a great book to remind us that Christmas is not all about Santa, but yet God is all around us and Jesus is the best present of all!

I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas! We celebrated with family last night and this morning,we got up about 8:30 and checked out what Santa brought... then it was a S.L.O.W. process of opening presents, we would open 1-2, then play for awhile, then come back and open a few more. We face-timed with Papa and Mimi:) Then had brunch and played with some presents and cleaned up a little bit for the daycare kids tomorrow. Now, Brooklyn's napping, Mike took a load of cardboard to the shop to burn and I'm blogging, laundry and need to finish wrapping a few presents for tonight.

I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and are surrounded by your family and friends!

Waterproof Purse!

She was insistent on taking the purse into the bathtub yesterday morning.... do they make a waterproof purse?!!

Christmas 1 & 2!

Yesterday and today we celebrated Christmas 1 & 2... 2 days of no nap until after 5, but Brooklyn survived it and did pretty well. What a fun time both were. 6 more to go until our celebrating is complete for the season! Yes, it's nice to have all grandparents still living, but makes for a lot of celebrating!

Christmas with Grandma!

Great Uncle Raymond giving me a ride!

Sorry about no pants on, but it was HOT in Grandma's house... check  out her cute purse from Raymond & Sue!

Changing table from Grandma Mary

Painting!

We discovered something that's FUN to do:)) PAINTING! Miss. Brooklyn loves to paint with the big kids...

Nummy snow!

I was wondering how long it would take her to eat the snow!

It's almost Christmas:))

It's almost Christmas time! Can't tell that I'm excited:) Life has been BUSY BUSY the past few days. I'm trying to finish the last of my wrapping but I misplaced 2 gift certificates, and I'm not sure if I wrapped them with something else?!  So, I guess I better start looking for them!

I've been busy with the daycare kids, trying to finish up the last of our Christmas projects that I thought would be cute to do this year... I guess what we don't get to, we can always do next year.

We have been emptying out the playroom slowly this week in preparation for Christmas! They almost don't know what to do with so much room to move around!! I did list my old kitchen set on the garage sale site and it sold, but I'm seriously debating about just keeping it! I guess I have a day to decide yet!

Have a great rest of your week!

Driving!
