Christmas

Twas the night before Christmas and Hannah left out treats for Santa and his reindeer.

Did he come? Some little girl was very excited to go find out!

And sure enough...Santa had come!

Hannah making funny faces while she was trying to get everything out of her stocking.

Emme's turn. Unfortunately Emme had nursemaid's elbow again the day before and the arm was still painful (right arm). She wasn't in the best of moods as it had been a long night without much sleeping going on (for Mommy and Daddy too).

"holy cow"

Her very own computer from Gramma and Gramps.

Emme just taking a break from opening presents to read her favorite book! (almost every time we go to the library Emme insists on checking this book out and now she has her very own copy).

Emme opening her present from Mommy and Daddy. Hannah, as usual, would pass out each present and then help open them for each person. We tried to let Emme open her presents on her own, but it was very hard for Hannah especially since Emme was slow!

A new baby and stroller from Gramma and Gramps!

Hannah and her treasure hunt game...the absolutely only thing she asked from Santa for Christmas (although when we saw Santa at the library he said he would bring her some surprises too)! She was very excited!

And from Buddy Joe, a princess tent and tunnel!

The girls loved their new tent! But quickly found out that both of them couldn't come out at the same time.

After opening presents and having nut roll for breakfast, we headed to Aunt Connie and Uncle Paul's for a wonderful family dinner....

Hannah and Owen exchanging gifts!

Daddy and his girls.

Addie, Hannah, and Emme checking out Addie's new Nook.

Yummy turkey dinner! Table manners? (I should mention this was the Daddies and kids table)

Emme in her new chair made by Uncle Bill just for her reading Owen's book.

Hannah and Emme!

Daddy and a cuddly, happy Emme!

Jammies and then home for a good night's sleep!
