Christmas Eve/Christmas morning!!

I decided to have the family over to our house for soup on Christmas Eve. We had a pretty good time I think!

Yeah - we're cute. We know... ;)

I LOVE this pic!

Nana & our baby girl!

Such beautiful girls...

Sportin' G-ma Elaine's coat & scarf...

On Christmas morning, we got up and the girls opened their Santa gifts. Then we headed over to Nana & Poppo's for more presents & a yummy Christmas dinner!

Grandpa Matt stopped by with presents too!

Starting to really talk...

I love this stage! Jabber, jabber, jabber!!

Jammin' to The Zac Brown Band

The girls like to listen to music with mommy. I captured this little video the other day. As you can see - they really like to dance too! I think it's safe to say that Peytie got her daddy's sense of rhythm. ;) Just sayin'...

**You'll need to be sure & scroll down all the way to the bottom of the page and hit pause on my music player or you'll be hearing both that & the sound on this video. =)

Random post...

Donna came in during our last blizzard to take Peytie & Jack sledding. I was so thankful because there was NO way I was goin' outside. BRRRR!!! Thanks Donna - you're the best!

A couple pics from Palisade's Old Fashioned Christmas...

Peytie wanted to take a pic of mommy. (I had to help hold the camera - but she pushed the button - so hey that counts! ;) She did pretty good except we forgot to turn the flash on so had to make it B/W 'cause the colors were just yucky! =)

One SLEEPY lil' girl... (Pic, courtesy of Donna-our sitter.)

Bath... check. Bedtime cookie...check. Lookin' adorable with my curly locks... check.

Christmas tree/Husker party/Sledding!

I wasn't going to put up a tree this year (for fear of Sawyer messing with it) but Peytie finally talked mommy into it. And after we put it up - I thought to myself, "What was I thinking?! A tree is SO necessary for my Christmas spirit!" Smart kid she is...
