The letter Santa left for the kids.
The kids were excited to find reindeer foot prints in the snow where they had sprinkled the reindeer food.
Waking up to a white Christmas!
Baby Rilla
Waiting to come downstairs in the morning.
Santa brought Nora some things for her baby dolls and some pretend makeup and brushes etc. b/c she is always trying to get into mommy's.
Daniel showing off his Steve Irwin action figure and the crocodile: Daniel is REALLY into nature shows on tv/books about animals etc. He is fascinated and asks me to see if a "nature show" is on all the time. We came across Steve Irwin's show The Crocodile Hunter one day and Daniel was mesmerized. He LOVED it and wanted to watch it everyday. He would dress up and pretend to be Steve using his stuffed animals and pretend snakes to do whatever Steve was doing. Anyway, Shannon found this action figure online and got it for Daniel which has proven to be a hit. (Poor Daniel doesn't know the true fate of the crocodile hunter. I think he would be crushed!) We also got him the Planet Earth and Blue Planet DVDs since he's been into that kind of thing and he watches them every day! He knows more about animals/fish than Shannon or I do!
We made these bags for the two Grandma's and Shannon's aunt this year. The kids had fun doing it.
The half-time show...
Ready to rest and watch a movie.
My mom always made this German Kringler every Christmas morning. It is one of my favorite things. It was a special treat to have her there and make it!
