Christmas Recap & New Years too!

The festivities started out on Christmas eve, both our parents and my grandma went with us to the Christmas eve service at church followed by dinner here at our house.
 LOVE this!!
 They had one present to open Christmas eve


 Reading the new reindeer magic book

 Then it was outside to sprinkle the reindeer food:)
 and then cookies and milk for Santa and treats for the reindeer


 They had to say their goodbyes to buddy and belle
 and hang Santa's magical key

 Santa came!

 Christmas morning excitement!
This is the girls new bean bag, more like a bed this things huge!! But so comfortable!
 Look daddy its all gone!














 After our Christmas at home we were off to grandma and grandpa perezs'

 Then onto my parents for lunch and family time the rest of Christmas day:)

A long and exhausting day but I'm so glad it works out to spend the day with both our families, we are so lucky to live so close! I couldn't imagine not sharing the holidays with them!



Now onto New Years, we spent the night at a friends house with all of our kiddos to ring in the new year! The kids had so much fun, us adults did too:)  
Last Family pic of 2011!

They had so much dancing on the kinect!

and someone crashed out before midnight:( so we headed home and rang in the new year with kisses for our two baby girls,then we all crashed! After calling Jaylee's preschool at midnight to sign lexer up for next year!

This year had a lot of downs but thank god and all of you for the prayers and believing its looking up, we are ready to put 2011 behind us and move on with our lives in 2012, with continued progress and healing! So we wish all of you a very blessed 2012!!!

The other night we started our gingerbread house and last night it was dry and set so we could finish the decorating 




 such concentration!
 I think Lex ate more than she put on the house!
The finished product!
Now onto the cut out's we mixed these up yesterday morning rolled them out and then decorated yesterday afternoon





Decorating time!

They are so excited to leave these cookies out for Santa! Jaylee kept saying the whole time we were decorating, Santa's going to love these!

This has been the scene in our house the past couple of days every day at 10 am and 5 pm you can watch Santa feed the reindeer live via webcam by going here:
 The girls love it!

So there you have it a couple of our fun activities. As of today we are all on vacation and are so excited! So looking forward to these next 5 days with nothing but fun, family, food, & traditions !
