Tis The Season

We just wanted to share a few pictures from our Christmas day. We had a wonderful time hanging out in our pj's all day and playing with each other. We hope your day was just as nice as ours...
Lilly hanging out in her new tent.
Mommy in her three scarfs, new warm robe and fuzzy footies. Kadin usually has his nose in a book...good boy!
Mason with his new camera and Ben 10 cool watch.
Mommy always gets her annual pj's from Daddy as well.
Daddy and his tools...
Lilly in her new house that she'll never leave.
Kadin got a new electric guitar that he's going to learn to play if he can get it away from his siblings.
Waiting to come down the stairs Christmas morning...
Kids in their pj's...
Cookies for Santa...:-)
The kids always get to open their Christmas Eve PJ's from Grandpa and Grandma Caldwell. This is a very favorite tradition they have and wear them all day Christmas as well.
We ended our Christmas Eve by putting out the Raindeer Food on the front lawn. Some the kid's had put together in their classes at school and then we added a little of our own Oats to finish it off. The wind was blowing pretty good that night, but there was no snow to speak of anywhere. Between you and me...I rather like it that way.
We've had a nativity set the needed some working on to make it complete. The kids had a great time sanding down the blocks of wood and then putting the stickers on. I finished them off with a coat of Mod Podge. This is a great set for the kids to play with without the fear of it getting broken.
We thought it would be fun to spend some of the kid's free time from school doing a few arts and crafts. We all worked together to make a gingerbread house, that they haven't stopped eating on ever since.
