Christmas 2012

We had a great Christmas season. M got to do a Christmas program for preschool.

Santa was even there, so we didn't even have to go to the mall. 
 A didn't cry on his lap, but she was very wary.
M was excited to see Santa and also a little shy.
The real highlight of the night for M was probably the Sprite.
Poor little A got a parainfluenza virus about three days before Christmas.  She slept on the couch the whole first day of sickness and cried for the rest of it.  She was not her usual self for Christmas Eve or Christmas, but she was good considering how she felt.  Luckily, no one else got it.
Chris made smoked chicken for his family on Christmas Eve.  We weren't sure how it would go, but as always the food turned out great.  Chris has been getting a lot of use out of his smoker grill.  Christmas morning was a lot of fun with the girls this year.
Stockings were full of fun stuff: bath time body paints, owl hats, little toys, and candy, of course.

I tried a cream cheese braid for breakfast.  It wasn't quite what I imagined, but it was still good.  I'll be trying something else next year.

 A was all about the candy this year.

This is M's "I got a unicorn Pillow Pet Dream Light" face!  She also got a LeapPad to share with A and some other fun movies and toys.

A got a ladybug Dream Light and a Baby Alive doll.  Next year: more photos!  I didn't take a single picture this year.  Thanks to Chris for all of these photos.
