Christmas 2012

Christmas with two littles is exciting, a lot of work, and messy.

  But moments like this when you realize that she's drawing the nativity... priceless.

  We had our first real snow of the season... and Hudson got to experience snow for the first time. The words "snow" and "cold" are now a part of Hudson's vocabulary.

  Most of the time it was fun to have Silly Elf around, but sometimes Silly Elf  ran out of creativity and relied on Pinterest for suggestions on what to do at night.    
  The kids went to the Christmas Eve candlelight service in their jammies so they could be carried right into bed when we got home.

  Hannah and I baked chocolate chip cookies for Santa,  and laid out a glass of chocolate milk for him as well.

  Santa came!
  Hudson's ravorite present was this roller coaster.

  Hannah received several Lalaloopsy doll items, including the Jewel Sparkle Silly Hair doll she really wanted.

  Santa remembered to bring something for Sedona this year.

  This is my favorite photo from this Christmas.  When I'm not looking, Hannah tries to sneak on the roller coaster with her roller skates on.


She wore her roller skates all day, and didn't want to take them off.
