CHRISTmas time is here!

Our church had a wonderful Christmas tree lighting. The teenagers sang and danced and Santa came in riding a motorcycle, but it was mostly about Christ's birth! The tree is enormous, and we got a family pic after it was over. They even provided hot chocolate and cookies for everyone! It dropped 40 degrees over that day!
One moment of sweetness!
Brady loved his holiday snapshot...until Grace wanted in it too!
The kids and Daddy on the train. Do you notice that I am never in the pictures? That's for several reasons...
No crying by these two! I don't think Brady even turned around to see who was holding him!
Here is our first Christmas picture of the season. Our town has "Merry Main Street" on Dec. 1. They decorate the downtown area, have Santa there, have food booths and craft booths, and activities for the kids. They did great with Santa, and rode a small train. It was a fun night together.

Grace had cowboy day at school. Her outfit is one I wore when I was little, but older than Grace is. She is taller than I was at three.

Grace got a ballerina ornament since she started dance this year for the first time!
We are trying to decorate our tree, but the little one isn't helping much! We decorated more after he went to bed. I love this night at our house. We make Christmas cookies, listen to Christmas music, and decorate our tree together. The kids get an ornament each year from us and both sets of grandparents. It's neat to see all the ones we have so far, even ones Josh and I made growing up. I love traditions!
