Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

We had a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy New Year!  We hope you did too!  Here's a snapshot of what we did...

Scarlett sat in Jake's stocking...

She sat on Santa's lap (unwillingly)...

I forced Jake to wear this shirt when we went to Draper for Christmas eve (what a good hubby!)

This was my shirt

For our Christmas Eve PJs I found Scarlett a onesie that says "My First Christmas" so I used a Sharpie to make our shirts coordinate...

I also decorated the back...

Scarlett spent most of Christmas morning (after church) like this...

She loved her new toys...

But mostly she loved the wrapping paper and bows...

The highlight of Christmas day was Skyping with James!  He has grown so much.  He shared a lesson with us and it was so powerful!  We're so proud of him!

Scarlett stayed awake til midnight to ring in the New Year... (and she wasn't even whining)

Chumlee also enjoyed himself!

Scarlett wore her new boots on New Year's Day (thanks Aunt Jami!!!)

Now the holiday season is over - back to the real world: work, diets, and waking up early.  Oh well... only 363 days left til Christmas!  :-)
