Christmas Recap

We had a pretty eventful Christmas at the Carlson's. We had MorMor (my mom) come to visit early so we had lots of time to play with her. Then on Christmas Eve Grandpa and Auntie Mere came to visit. It was fun to have have them visit. Dayne and Lylah loved playing with Auntie Mere. They think she is pretty funny when she makes her funny noises. We kept up our tradition of making a Gingerbread house with her. I had put together the house ahead of time so it was dry for them to go to town decorating. Before we opened presents Auntie Mere helped Dayne and Lylah make reindeer food and then sprinkles it outside. It was oats, glitter, and Acorn confetti. Putting on boots and jackets they put it all over the snow outside. Dayne thought it was pretty cool! He was excited to see it glitter on the snow. He had no doubt that the reindeer would see his house!

Present opening was a lot of fun. Dayne loves his new legos and Lylah thinks the luggage they got was way too much fun to drag around!

PRESENTS!

After presents Dayne and Lylah got out cookies for Santa. Lylah insisted on putting out the milk! She even stole a sip! It was such a busy day that they went to bed without a peep!

CHRISTMAS MORNING!!! Santa came!!

The next morning Dayne's dream came true because Santa brought his Smart Cycle! Lylah got a doll house.

We had a wonderful Christmas filled with new and old traditions. We are looking forward to the years to come- creating memories with our beautiful children!
