Christmas Eve:
Judah decided to go "ni-night":
 |
| He decided to make it appear to be more like a bed.... |
 |
| Goodnight! |
 |
| Who wants to sleep on Christmas Eve? Not Judah! |
 |
| Smiles in front |
Christmas Morning:
 |
| Not a creature was stirring. |
 |
| Soren was up first again, every year without fail. |
 |
| Judah smiling with closed eyes, ready to experience his first Christmas. |
 |
| Esther helping Dad with the famous family Danish custard |
 |
| Our first Christmas all together |
Grampy came over in the afternoon for a hike and dinner:
 |
| Mom with her girls |
Dinnertime:
 |
| Dad cutting up the turkey....my Mom used the recipe we used at Eeott and Papa's for Thanksgiving. By FAR the best turkey ever (well, I mean, it's got bacon in it) . See how-to here: Gordon Ramsey's Turkey recipe |
 |
| Grampy and Queen Elsa |
 |
| Gathered around ready to feast! |
 |
| Judah and Esther pose with their coloring books from Aunt Julie and Uncle JR. I don't know that crazy guy back there...thanks for the photobomb, Dad! |
 |
I can't believe how big these guys are getting!
