Happy Birthday Jesus!

Daddy had to work a bit on Christmas eve, but luckily he was home around 7:30 so he arrived just in time to help us get ready for Santa. First we put out Carrots and water for the Reindeer, and then we picked out some cookies that Mommy had baked and left them on a plate. We also thought that since it was so cold out that we would leave Santa a nice cup of Hot Cocoa to warm him up a bit when he got to our house. Mommy helped us write a letter to santa as well. Then we all got in our Jammies and got ready for bed! We all thought that Shane looked SO CUTE all dressed up in his Santa Jammies and Cap! He looks especially cute with the cup of cocoa and cookies!

After we put out Cocoa and cookies for Santa, Daddy snuggled on the couch with us and read us the store (from the bible) of the Birth of Jesus. This, along with singing Happy Birthday to Jesus has become a family tradition..after all it IS what CHRISTmas is all about! Dad read out of a Bible that was given to him from his Grandpa Woodruff...and that bible was given to Grandpa. Daddy said it is an old bible and that one day he will give it to one of us.

This is the wonderful sight we woke up to Christmas Morning! Santa had really come, and had left lots of presents. We were all...well Kylie, Aiden and I were so excited. We all squealed in delight. Kylie was so excited she didn't know what to do with herself and said to Daddy " I need to hug you" I have to admit that was pretty cute! We couldn't wait to dive in and see what Santa had brought us. But Mommy said that we had to wait a minuet while she fixed herself and Daddy a cup of Coffee, and we had to open presents one at a time so we could all see what Santa had brough everyone. He was very good to us as you'll see in the pictures.

Here we are checking to see if santa ALSO left stuff in our stockings, guess what....HE DID!!!!

It's a good thing Santa put Aiden's Guitar in the back of the tree so he would open it last or he might not have ever opened any thing else up! He plays with it all the time!
Kylie was so excited about her bike she couldn't wait to try it out!!

Here is what it looked like under our tree After we opend all the presents from Santa!

After we opend all our presents from Santa, and had sang Happy Birthday to Jesus, and ate our Coffee cake we got ourselves ready to head to Nana and Papa's to spend a few hours with them and celebrate Christmas with them, as well as Nanny and Grandpa, Auntie Missy, Uncle Mike, Skyler and Kaydence. We had such a great time and got lots of great gifts.

Grandpa had a great time watching us open gifts.

Nanny and Auntie Missy watch as we all unwrap gifts!

Kaydence played with the present we gave her while Uncle Mike helps Skyler with her'

Next we went to Memere and Pepere's house were we spent the rest of Christmas opening presents and eating Yummy food that Pepere had made. In case your wondering (Lots of people have asked us) Pepere made Stuffed shells 3 kinds, Cheese, Meat, and Cheese and Spinach. He also made a turkey with his very yummy stuffing, carrots, turnip, and potato's. Mmmm it was so good. Auntie Rosie, Uncle Justin and Carolanne were there celebrating with us. It was such a great day. Here are some pictures from Christmas at the "Bissonnette's"

NO......I was NOT drinking wine. Pepere had bought sparkling grape juice for Mommy because she is nursing Shane and won't drink, so Mommy gave me some. Pepere gave me a grown up cup to drink it out of since I'm so grown up now.

Here's Kylie dancing on Pepere's feet. Mommy said she uses to dance with Pepere like that when she was little. Here are all the things that we got on Christmas. As you can see we got very spoiled. In the first pic on the Left Mommy had to stand in the kitchen to get all the gifts in, and on the 2nd picture on the right Mommy was standing on the stairs, oh and in that pic the pile of white boxes under the window are two deep, and those are the clothes that we got. We made out pretty good. Poor Mommy is still working on finding places to put all our things. OH and this pictures don't include anything Mommy and Daddy got or any of our bikes!!!!!
