We Celebrated Christmas Eve with the Carr Family and my Nephew Garrett.
We had a delicious dinner with Ham, Potatoes, Orange Rolls and some really good green beans!
After Dinner we had the kids (and Bob and Garrett) dress up in the nativity costumes and listed to Lige read the story of Jesus's birth.
Isla was excited to be Mary this year with baby Oliver as Jesus and Bob as Joseph.
 |
Wyatt was a wise man
(the crown was the only thing we could get him to wear) |
 |
| Eisley was a shepard |
 |
| Garrett was a Wise man |
 |
| Liam was an Angel |
 |
And Max was a Wise Man
(He was excited that we had some Gold Chocolate coins that he could give to baby Jesus) |
After the Carr's and Garrett left, the kids got to open up their new PJ's.
They got the Cookies and Root Beer out for Santa, and we headed upstairs for bed.
 |
| Oliver was so excited for his first Christmas |
 |
| After a while they all fell asleep |
 |
Bob put some wrapping paper over their doorway so that we would be able to hear them when they woke up.
It's a good thing to, because Max woke up quite a bit during the night to see if Santa had come yet. |

I told her to get dressed in warm clothes so she could go ride her bike.

That night for dinner we kept to the Wells Family Tradition and
had a simple dinner of Latkes and fruit by candle light.
It was such a fun Christmas! All of the kids loved their presents
(although Isla still keeps asking me why Santa didn't bring her the Princess Klip Klop stable she asked for. I guess Santa missed the boat on that one).
Thank You Grandma's for the great Gifts! The kids LOVE them! Max has worn his Alaska Sweatshirt for the past four days he even sleeps in it. I am going to have to sneak it away so that I can wash it. And they are all planning on sleeping in the TeePee tonight with in their sleep sacks.

Great pictures, thanks for sharing. Hope all is well and that the New Year will be great also.
Awesome pictures. I wondered what those giant sticks were for. I love your stockings. Where did you get the pattern for them. I want to make my family matching stockings. So fun!
