Kepler spent most of this month on the naughty list, so we were all surprised and relieved that Santa still brought him what he asked for. I guess he made up for it in his last ditch efforts to be nice on Christmas Eve day. ;)
He was SO happy with his silver bell from Santa's sleigh. He kept holding it up to his ear and saying "I believe!" He also told me that he wished I could hear his bell too. I told him I could hear it and he said in a sad and serious voice "No Mommy, it's broken for you."
His Lightning McQueen race track was also a huge hit, and kept him occupied most of the day
Jayna of couse loved her easel and was excited about the rainbow chalk! She also got an art kit from Grandma Fitzner. So she got to be artist all day long, her dream come true.
Pretending to be Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus on the sled that Santa brought them. Kepler has been pretending to be Santa for about a week straight.
One of Jayna's other favourite presents, a Chrystal flower pot. She loves little "treasures" like this.
Kepler reading Keira the book he gave her
We got a good picture using the timer, hooray!
Christmas Day after church was so relaxing. The kids got to play with their toys all day!
This picture just makes me laugh. I think we have clone children.
We had some friends over who work at Gibb's office for Christmas dinner. Melissa, Brittany and baby Ella
Keira and Ella's first Christmas
After the kids were in bed, we cleaned up and skyped with more family. Then we tried to watch a Christmas Carol and we were both falling asleep. Ha, you know you're old when you have to watch a movie over 2 nights because you can't stay up. :)
Christmas this year was pretty close to perfect for our family. I'm kind of sad it's all over already, but Gibb still has this whole week off. I'm excited for lots of family time and hopefully getting some projects done!

Christmas looked like so much fun! I love that there were 2 Mary's at the Nativity! It's only fair after all. :) And I love Jill as the donkey! Haha. You got a super cute family picture before church, and I love the pic of all the kids with their mouths open. Too funny!
Looks like you had a great time! I look forward to the time when we stay home at our own place Christmas eve! It seems way more relaxing! Love the photos.
So fun. It's nice to be able to stay home and not be driving around. We've been driving across the city for day days straight and I'm pooped haha. I told Jimmy we need a WAY bigger house soveveryobe can come here! Haha
Merry Christmas!!
It looks like you had the perfect Christmas at home! Your kids are adorable! Keira is getting so big and she is so cute with her huge smile and chubby cheeks - I just want to cuddle her!
What a fun Christmas you had! The kids look like they had a blast. It's great you are making those traditions with your kids. We missed you so much at Christmas! It was such a different Christmas for us but we were so glad to be able to see Brett, Jenny and Milo! Keira is so darn cute--wish I was there to get hugs from everyone
