Merry Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas this year! It is my favorite holiday and I just love celebrating Christ's birth with the people I love most in this world.

Tyce and Shay got dress-up clothes and new bikes for Christmas from mommy and daddy this year. Alyssa got some new clothes, shoes and toys. They also got a couple of small things from Santa Claus. Many of my pictures from Christmas have disappeared...I'm so far behind on my blog that I haven't even looked back at these photos for a while and I have no idea where they have gone. I completely finished Tyce and Shay's stockings I made them but can't find pictures of all of us opening our stockings. I also can't find any pictures of them with their new bikes on Christmas morning.

I made Shaylie this Rapunzel dress for Christmas:












Tyce was excited about his baseball uniform:

























The kids got Scott a new robe for Christmas:












My favorite new gift this year:












After presents, I made our traditional birthday cake for Jesus (dutch babies) for breakfast and we all sang "Happy Birthday."










Taking a nap before heading to Grandma Kathy and Papa's house...she's so sweet :)












Christmas celebration with the Haij Family:
