Christmas

This year we spent Christmas at the Puzeys. We had a great time! On Christmas Eve, after our dinner, the kids put on a Nativity, under the direction of Morgan. It was really cute! Kate and Owen were Mary and Joseph, baby Jesus was played by one of Kate’s dolls, Olivia played the angel, Morgan Narrated and Carter and Zac played innkeepers, shepherds and sheep. They put it on in the basement, and when they got to the “stable” Mary and Joseph sat down in beach chairs and laid baby Jesus in a milk crate. It was awesome! Here are some pictures of the cast.

After making every last preparation for Christmas morning, Nate and I headed to bed, where we found our cute little guys (hogging our bed) in their Christmas PJs, fast asleep. Why does it feel so good to see your kids sleep? 

What makes Christmas morning so much fun? Playing with all of your presents...even simultaneously! I had to snap a picture of Owen, playing with his new kitchen, while riding his new bike...the cutie can’t help it, he comes by it honestly.

I knew Owen would be a lot of fun to watch on Christmas morning, but what I didn’t anticipate was how much fun it would be to watch Olivia. She was crawling around between her toys, the boxes, ribbons, stockings, everyone else’s toys just playing with everything. I honestly think she was down there playing for at least 3 hours. It was so fun to see her enjoy Christmas just as much as the rest of us did. I love the holidays!
