Christmas Eve

We had lots of fun on Christmas Eve! In the morning my mom heated up the hot tub and we continued the tradition of swimming! Jackson loved it and Abbie didn't make a fuss for the hour or so she was in there with us!

Then we had our annual sugar cookie decorating extravaganza. This year Michael & Annika totally dominated the competition.

The cookie frosters

Some of the top cookies, Michael's snowy tree on the bottom was the winner :)

One of her favorite chew toys, Jackson's airplane

 In the late afternoon Paige and Ben came back over and we had an amazing Christmas honey baked ham dinner that my mom prepared. (no pictures sadly) And after dinner we had fun with a Christmas Nativity, starring our very own William as baby Jesus

The Nativity Cast

Abbie was cast as the all important Angel, very appropriate :)

Jammie Pyramid!

Jackson refused to wear his matching jammies, but the kids were still cute :)

She was an angel on Christmas Eve, in more ways than one :)
