Breakfast with Santa:
Our children's ministry at church had a breakfast with Santa for our preschoolers. It was so well organized with lots of food, a craft, and pictures with Santa.
Cookie Decorating Party:
We had a few of Lillian's neighborhood friends over to decorate sugar cookies. Surprisingly most of the mess stayed on their little fingers and faces.
And one awesome Momma made chef hats for each kid!
Christmas Lights: One night we put on our pajamas and drove around looking at Christmas lights.
We also went to Huntsville Botanical Gardens and drove through their Galaxy of Lights display. Lillian enjoyed sitting in the front with Mommy and really enjoyed seeing so many lights. She would point out what each display was.
Decorated Christmas Trees:
The girls get an ornament each year so I have a small tree to put their ornaments on. Looks like we will need a bigger tree now with two girls.
We also decorated our big tree as a family although Adeline slept through most of it.
she randomly put a nutcracker ornament to her ear and pretended it was a phone and called Uncle Nick Aunt Brittany and Aubrey.
Apparently the lights were too bright.
Daddy's Work Party:
Kevin had started working at a new company a week prior and we were invited to their Christmas Party. It was at the Mexican restaurant that Kevin loves here and they had dinner, music, door prizes (I won a $50 iTunes giftcard and Kevin won tickets to a concert) and Santa came and even brought gifts for each child. Such a great company party that was so family oriented.
Our Family Christmas:
Before we headed to my parent's house for Christmas we had our family Christmas one morning. Essentially it consisted of opening our stockings and Lillian opening her one big gift. A barbie power-wheel I found cheap on a yard sale site. It was pretty chilly out that morning but the gift was a hit! Here is a video of Lillian "opening" her gift https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyEpFODc5iA
Lastly, before church the Sunday before Christmas we made sure to take pictures in our Christmas outfits!
