Christmas Day!
Happy Birthday, Jesus!


At home, Reese is all ready for her Christmas Day at church!


Our little family


Justin and me at Meme and Papa's house


I love my husband :)


Starting to open gifts!
(I think these two kiddos might just adore their daddy)


James and cousins, Anthony and Lucas, play with their new helicopters from Meme and Papa!


Reese with her new bow and bunny!
(She looks like a sweet little Christmas present herself :)


Reese opened her very own doll! We are new at this girl toy thing!


I think she likes it!

Christmas Eve 2011


We did a lot on Christmas Eve and enjoyed every minute of it!

There just had to be a tractor ride with Papa on Christmas Eve!
Probably the high light of the day!


Back at home, cooking dinner before everyone comes over!
James has been a big helper recently :)


After dinner, the kids opened presents from Meme and Papa.
Matching PJs!!!


And a Christmas dress!


Reese loved the ribbon the most :)


All ready for bed!


But first, we had to get pictures of the cousins :)
The boys were having a real good time.


Reese thought the boys' laughter was interesting at first...


then it got louder....


and louder! To the point where it scared Reese! Haha.


The boys were being so silly it was cracking us up!


The 3 amigos ;)


That night, Mario and Melanie stayed late to play Mario on the Wii with Justin and me. Ok, so we figured out, that it is too hard (communication-wise) for Mario to be Luigi. Mario needs to be Mario. If you don't get that, you had to be there! haha. It was so funny and we had a blast hanging out with them! Wish they lived closer so we could do this more often! ps....I got a huge crick in my neck from looking so high up at the TV like that!

Oh, and did I mention that during this fun time, our GPS got stolen out of our van. So sad. We think we must have some how left the side door open :(
