Christmas 2012
The holiday weekend started off with some baking in the kitchen with Natalie. We made some chocolate fudge (as you are seeing her stir here, below), some chocolate mint cookies, and a sour cream coffee cake. I used to make peanut butter fudge, but since the little guy is allergic, chocolate is where it's at.
Two days before Christmas, Todd and Natalie decided they wanted to put up some Christmas lights on the outside steps and just as they were finishing up, Natalie fell down the steps and flat on her face, scraping up here nose real bad. There was a LOT of blood, but at least it wasn't broken. You'll see more of that in some of the pictures below.
After Christmas Eve mass, we always toss reindeer dust on the ground so that it will sparkle in the moonlight and the reindeer will find our house! Then we ate Chinese food!
And of course, after bath time, daddy read 'Twas the Night Before Christmas!
Grant is eyeballing the cookie. Hmmm, I wonder if they'll notice if I eat that cookie!?!
This is what it all looked like after Santa had been to our house. Too many presents!
In the morning, both kids really tore into their gifts. For the next several days, Grant kept saying, "Can we open more presents?" Santa brought him a lot of trucks, but apparently it was not enough!
More presents, it's starting to get messy in here! After we opened presents, we went down to Plymouth for the night.
Here's Todd taking a family dinner self portrait. With his mouth full.
Both kids got Dream Lites this year- Natalie got hers from Santa, and Grant got his from Grammi and Bean!
Merry Christmas everyone!
