So much planning and anticipation goes into Christmas and we could not be more grateful for all of the wonderful gifts we received and all of the time we were able to spend with people we love. The kids are missing their uncle Ben (he was a great jungle gym!) and aunt Lindsey, according to Addellyn they are now back in "Extas" for "cool" (Texas for school...pretty close:))

Breakfast was beautiful and oh so yummy. Santa Claus brought a great table and chair set with some art supplies...these were a huge hit!
Addellyn could not be happier with the outfit (including crown and earrings) she got from grandma Vivian. And, of course, Coleson is super happy to have a lap to sit in and a book to read!

Coleson sits in these chairs ALL of the time now, which is wonderful, because if he is sitting, he can't be running around causing havoc! And of course, Santa brought the Butterfly Barbie! (the one and only thing Makinzie wanted from Santa...she even was brave enough to ask him when she sat on his lap at the mall...this is the first year she was even willing to sit on his lap...it must be SOME barbie!)

This was the wonderful sight out the back window as we were opening presents...no, it's not the snow you should be looking at, yes that is a hawk and yes it is eating a tiny bird for Christmas breakfast :(...Tyler saw and pointed it out to the entire family.
We had a blast with family and loved sharing our gifts and joy with them this Christmas!

Your picture of the hawk and bird turned out great! I guess everyone needs to have a Christmas feast...
We miss everyone now that we're back in "Extas for cool." So cute of Addellyn. :)
