We celebrated a fancy Christmas dinner with my mom and Amber's family one week before Christmas. I liked doing this so no one was stuck cooking on Christmas!
Vic had Christmas Eve off so we built a snow man and played in the snow.
Our skate pond was covered in snow so we dug out a small strip to slide around on.
The kids had fun making Vic pull them around on sleds... we could hardly wait to show them what they were getting the next day!
We went to mom's house in late afternoon to make Christmas cookies.
We had a nice lasagna dinner with Jason & Evan.
Then we had our friends, the Drapers come over to act out the live nativity, games, and treats.
We almost made it through the night when Tucker ran into the door and cut his forehead all the way through. We really didn't want to spend the rest of Christmas Eve in the emergency room so we called a nurse and had her tell us the best way to clean it and close the gap. We put lots of butterflies, band-aids, and tape to make sure it stayed! Poor thing was in a lot of pain.
Here they are Christmas morning. I made them cute little Santa pancakes. We ate breakfast and then my mom and Jason decided to brave the roads (they had a new foot of snow!) so they came late.
Church was cancelled because of the snow so we took our sweet time opening presents all morning. Tommy got mostly all dinosaurs and magnets.
Tucker got mostly all Paw Patrol. He was pretty tickled pink.
Whitney got a good variety of all sorts of girly stuff, but mostly Shopkins.
We spent the afternoon on our big present... a 4 wheeler! Then the kids played with their new toys while Vic went and plowed snow at 3 of our properties. I think it's safe to say he's loving his new toy!
