Christmas 2014

We enjoyed another wonderful Christmas! Toby and I always stress the true reason for Christmas to Cason and Molly. For years I have been looking for some kind of kid friendly devotional or advent to do with the kids. My only criteria was that it had to be biblical and very low-key. I didn't want to mess with making something or giving a small gift each day. Ain't nobody got time for that! Thanks to my wonderful sister we discovered The Storybook Bible Advent plan. 24 devotionals starting when God created the earth to when Jesus was born. The kids looked forward to reading the stories each night!

This year we had Christmas with my family. We went to our church's Christmas Eve service, went to my parents house and had our traditional tortilla soup, pajama opening and bible story.

Miss Molly all dressed up for the Christmas Eve service. 

There is only 1 word to describe this guy. CRAZY!

Our family picture on Christmas Eve. We look like giants thanks to having to set the camera on the couch to take a timed picture!

 Christmas morning was fun! The first time Cason woke up and wanted to open presents was at 3 am. That didn't happen. We held them off until 6:40. We opened our family presents, played with them for a while, ate breakfast and went to Grandad and BeBe's for more celebrating.

Waiting to see what Santa brought

A Snackeez!!! Who knew a cup with a snack compartment on top would be so cool? 

Santa brought Molly an Elsa doll that lights up and sings. Yay us :)

Cason got a remote control dinosaur. 

And a whole bunch of Skylander stuff.

After changing into her Cinderella dress, Molly tried out her Frozen bicycle. She loved it!

I could hardly contain my excitement. 

Singing happy birthday to Jesus

Molly got the hang of riding her bike really quick! She loves it!

Since both Molly and Camille got new bicycles for Christmas, everyone brought their bikes to Grandad and Bebe's and rode around a cul-de-sac for a while. It was a perfect end to a perfect day!
