Christmas Day 2012


Everyone was pretty excited about their presents :) They do a gift shop at school here called "Santa's Secret Shop" that the kids can buy Christmas presents at. So I give them some money to get presents for each person in the family. It's always pretty entertaining to see what they get and to see how excited they are for that person to open it. They do a really good job getting things they think the other person will like. Matt took Caleb to the $ store to get his family presents - that didn't go over so well :) We almost didn't do it since we didn't think he would even realize he was left out of that loop - guess we should have gone with that initial hesitation. He wanted EVERYTHING for himself :)

Hailey has been asking for play make up for months so we got the girls a little for Christmas. They were very excited and so proud of themselves. This is not a battle I feel prepared for. I have NO idea how to decide an appropriate age to wear what kind of make up in public...... guess we will tackle that as it comes.....
Once they played with presents for awhile it was back outside for more snow and sledding. We have really enjoyed the snow this year. It doesn't seem like we got all that much last year but maybe it's just that this snow came over a holiday when we all had a chance to play in it.
