Celebrating Jesus' Birthday!

Our busy but fabulous Christmas Day!!
 
After all of the hustle and bustle of the morning, we headed down to Gigi and Papa's house around 4 pm. We brought Jesus' birthday cake with us. Charlotte and Aunt Bare took over decorating it.
 

She helped Daddy pick out sprinkles at Walmart the day before.

All of the presents that Santa left at Gigi and Papa's house :)

Uncle Jeremy and Sawyer playing with Papa's Ipad.

The weather outside is frightful but the fire is so delightful...

She is so proud of her cake for Jesus' birthday....even if she is giving a big 'ole fake smile here.

Just a quick taste...

They are crazy.

The final product....and a quick taste by each baby.
 
 
 

It's present time!!

 

Sawyer was helping pass them out too.

Sofia!!!

Hair stuff!!!!

How's that for an excited look!?!?!?!?!

Sawyer got a brand new quilt that Aunt Meem made for him.

Sawyer showing Uncle Chad his new tractor.

Lego blocks!!!!

Chaos.

A new riding toy that has Mickey Mouse on it!!!
 
Kisses for Papa.

Gigi and Papa's big gift to Goose was this vanity that Papa picked out for her.

 
The kids fingerpainted on a picture frame for Aunt Meem. It had a picture of her with each kid in it. She cried :) We had no idea she would love it so much!
 
 
Look at that grown up looking girl....

We opened presents once we were all there and then we had a delicious meal that Mom made. Anne and Jeremy drove up from Missouri and were able to be with us. After we all sat at the same big long table for dinner, Charlotte and Uncle Jeremy decided to play with her new vanity.


Once we were all done eating, we sang Happy Birthday to Jesus. That's Charlotte's favorite song :)

Everyone singing.

And the candles were blown out by both babes....
 
Charlotte and Sawyer slept at Gigi and Papa's house Christmas night. Aunt Meem and Uncle Jare were there to play with them. It was nice for Daddy and Momma to be able to get a bit of sleep for the night :)
 
We had such an awesome day. It wasn't jammed pack full of stuff. We were able to wake up in our own home in our own beds and the kids were able to play with all of their new toys. We had so much fun hosting people at our house but also leaving to go to Gigi and Papa's house for the evening. And naturally the kids loved getting to have a sleep over with Gigi and Papa.
 
Merry Christmas (five months late since I am writing this in the beginning of June...)
