Christmas was so much fun this year! Emma and TJ were so excited about the whole idea of Santa and his reindeer coming. Emma brought home some reindeer dust (glitter) from pre-school this year. The idea is right before you go to bed on Christmas Eve you throw the reindeer dust outside on the snow so the reindeer will see it shining, get curious, and when they stop to check it out Santa leaves you presents. You have to hurry and go to sleep or the reindeer won't come though. It was so funny to see her throw the glitter and run upstairs as fast as she could to get into bed. The only problem was we forgot to put out milk and cookies for Santa before we threw the reindeer dust. So she ran downstairs again, made sure we got the cookies and a big glass of milk, and ran back upstairs. I wish it was so easy to get her to go to sleep every night. 
TJ got this football and spider man ball in his stocking, which he opened first, and didn't want to open any more presents. I wish I would have known that is all he would want.

This is a picture of TJ asking if he could pleeeease open his race car track. Who could say no to those big blue eyes?
We always go to my parents house Christmas morning to open the gifts they got for us. Here is TJ cuddling Grandpa with his new blanket.
The kids got new storybooks for Christmas so we settled down with their new blankies and read a story before bedtime. As you can see, Rees wasn't too happy about the whole idea.

I can totally picture Emma throwing out her glitter, running to bed, then remembering the cookies. So cute!
Such sweet kids! I can't believe how long Emma's hair is. All of them are so darling.
