Christmas Eve 2013

After a month of fun and celebration - it was finally Christmas Eve!  So many important things needed to be done that day.  First....make cookies for Santa.

Then time to change into matching PJ's and try for a cute photo before Daddy reads The Night Before Christmas.

 Cookies and reindeer food were left out for Santa.

Christmas Eve Church Service 2013

We attended the Children's services at St. Luke's - they do a great job with an amazing puppet show and all the kids really enjoy it.  Payson and Dillon are part of the Cherubs Choir and they sang to open the show!  Glad Nana and GranDad could come for the celebration!

Christmas Sillies & Friends

The month of December is crazy - sometimes cooking dinner just does not happen.  One of our favorite restaurants is Mellow Mushroom - a fun family night was exactly what we needed in holiday craziness.

 Getting together with the Rooney's is a holiday tradition!

 Excited to celebrate Quinn's 1st Christmas!

 Between Payson's Birthday and Christmas, Payson has turned into a Lego building maniac.  I am so impressed with how quickly he is able to put together some pretty tricky sets!

Land Cousin Christmas Gift Exchange

We had a great time celebrating Christmas a little early with all of our Land Cousins.  With travel schedules, it was hard to get together right on Christmas, so the boys were thrilled to do a gift exchange a little early!

 Our attempts of a cute cousin photo - it is hard work to get everyone looking and smiling!

Let the gift exchange begin!

 After gifts, we had another fun celebration to learn if the newest cousin is going to be a Boy or a Girl.  He will be making his debut in May!

Time to play with our new toys!

 What a great day!
