Christmas Day!!!

Alexis in one of the many dresses she got for Christmas! Keri's little family, and my little Kinleigh on her very first Christmas!

My girls didn't even wake up till around 10 a.m. on Christmas morning! We slept out in the living room next to the fire.. and cuddled as a family!! Alexis couldn't believe that we didn't hear Santa come down the chimney since we were right next to the fireplace. When she woke up she said "Mom, Santa is SO sneaky, I didn't hear a thing!" Christmas morning was amazing! We spent it with just our little family :) We listened to Christmas music while the girls opened all their gifts, and they both were so excited!

Kinleigh took a little break to take a drink of her bottle between opening gifts! LOL!

Alexis loved everything she got!

Kinleigh had fun going through Alexis' candy from her stocking!

Alexis was thrilled when she saw her stocking stuffed full of goodies! She must have been a good girl this year!

We had such a great Christmas! The whole month of December was filled with Christmas music, baking, decorating, and enjoying family! I LOVE this holiday :) I'm sad it is already over. This year I really tried to concentrate on teaching Alexis more about the real meaning of Christmas. We read "The Nativity" several times, and Alexis asked all sorts of questions. She is definitely old enough to understand and it makes Christmas even more special.

Christmas evening was spent with my family and some of Jonathon's family. We had the best prime rib that my mom made! It was delicious :) We also watched "17 Miracles." It was such a great movie.
