Family fun at the grocery store

Merry Christmas! (Part 2)

Here are the last of my Christmas pictures.  I hope they bring a smile to those who could not be with us. 
 
 
Mary got a bedding set from Alek's and Matt's families.

Family!


Abby got all of the boys matching Detroit Tiger's shirts.







Ryleigh loves books!

She is always holding up a book to someone to ask them to read it to her.

What a cute picture! 
Thanks Aunt Abby for the book and cheeta stuffed animal.

 
Dane got playdough and a transformer playdough set from Grandpa Bob and Grandma Mary.  He really likes them!  Thanks so much!



 
Mary made me a scarf.  I had asked her for one, and I absolutely love it.  So does Ryleigh!






Mary and Bob also got me some matching earings.

These were just the appetizers!

 
Ryleigh eating Jesus's birthday cake the Grandma Mary made.  Red velevet.  So yummy!

Gettting Ready for Santa

In the past few days we have been very busy getting ready for Santa!
 
So much fun making a gingerbread train and house!

 
Uncle Frank and Aunt Cindy were lucky enough to be able to visit us when their plane to the Soo was delayed for two days due to a blizzard up North.







 
We then made and decorated cookies for Santa.  However, Dane only did a little bit of decorating, as he could not help but to want to lick every cookie and candy.


 
Christmas Eve:  Wow, it is finally here!  Dane and Ryleigh were so excited, they just had to try some of Santa's cookies.





 
I then put the cookies up on the counter, but that did not stop my children.  They followed...



 
Love the look on Dane's face in this one, ha ha.

 
And here are some videos from tonight...
