Christmas

  For Christmas Eve we went to my sister Susan's in laws. Santa stops by at 4pm and sings songs with the kids and even gives them each a present.

Santa had fun messing up Dave's hair

Even on Dad's lap she still doesn't like Santa

After the party we went home and decorated sugar cookies. Hannah enjoyed it a little too much.

  And then it was time for sibling presents. The kids had fun giving a present to each of their siblings.

And finally pj time.

  All Maddie wanted for Christmas was a "makery oven". She told anyone and everyone this. She was disappointed on Christmas Eve when Santa gave her a barbie and not the oven.

 Hannah really wanted a pillow pet she just forgot to mention it until Christmas Eve morning. We went to a lot of stores and this was the only one we could find.

Time for bed Christmas night. Hannah made herself at home on Maddie's bed.

Dave promised the kids they could stay up on New Years Eve. Really nice of him since he was really sick and couldn't stay up with them. The kids had no trouble staying up, myself on the other hand dozed off during the Smurfs.
