The season started out with decorating both the inside and outside of our house. Julia really loved looking at the Christmas tree and all the outside lights. I did the inside myself, but couldn't avoid having my "little helper" help Andrew and I with the outside...
Next on the list was a visit with Santa. This year we decided to avoid the mall Santa and went to our church's Breakfast with Santa. Julia told Santa she wanted a bike (which she already had) and a dollhouse for Christmas. She loved Santa's whiskers and hat, but chose to sit on Mrs. Claus' lap for the picture (after some enticing with a candy cane).
Finally, it was time for Christmas. Gifts had been bought and wrapped, the tree was trimmed, cookies were baked, we visited with Santa, and the food was prepared... Merry Christmas!
Christmas Eve we went to my in-laws to celebrate. Julia had fun playing with her cousins. There were Christmas pictures...
Julia sampled some of Nan's Christmas cookies while waiting to open presents...yummy!
Julia got some great gifts and practiced her skill opening presents...
What a girly girl! Then Christmas morning came...
What a great Christmas spending time with family! Merry Christmas to all... May your days be merry and bright!
