Since Will and his family were here the week before Christmas, we spent Christmas Eve and Day mostly with our family of 4. I had grand visions of the Norman Rockwell type holiday making beautiful memories. I sure tried but Christmas with a 2 and 4 year old is often like any other day with a 2 and 4 year old.
We made and decorated a birthday cake for Jesus.
We had a movie night complete with Christmas PJ's, hot chocolate and pop corn.
We left cookies and milk for Santa with his letter and vegetables for the reindeer.
Santa visited and this is before the kids came in. This year we tried really hard not to go overboard. I think we did OK with that.
Yes, both girls got a huge calculator. They love to play with mine and call it a computer. But, I can never find mine when I need it.
We always get a lot of dress up clothes.
Every year Hooligan gets a new bone for Christmas.
Here they are closing their eyes for their "big" present. It was big in size but I bought it for cheap at a consignment sale.
They got a tool bench so they can practice just like daddy.
Katherine loved her ballet bar and video.
For dinner we ate in the dining room complete with our fancy china. Dinner was a disaster though and both kids had to be disciplined including Katherine getting all of her toys taken away until the next day.
