Christmas 2012

Christmas Eve with the Parson Clan and Grandma and Grandpa John



 I thought this picture was too funny - Clara trying to give Myah a hug to say thanks for her present - Myah just thought she was being tickled!

 Checking out the sled marks and feet print that Santa had left the night before.
 Clara could only guess what might be in that present - her long awaited American Girl doll!  Actually it isn't, but Madame Alexander is pretty darn close right?  And she loves her just as much as she would an AG doll - but i still haven't gotten up the courage to tell her exactly what kind of doll she is.  Some mom....
 Woot woot - gosh that thing has been fun.  B might like it the most!
 Yahoo for legos.  i love those big duplo legos.  We have three big sets and I wish we had about 5 more.  They keep Clara and Grady entertained for hours.
 We stayed in our jammies just about all day - even for our afternoon walk.  We let the kids watch the muppets Christmas carol - took a long nap and ate yummy food.
I think my favorite part of Christmas this year though was that night - when the majority of the mess was cleaned up, the house was lit up from the tree and a cozy fire (that we finally had fixed this year after an awful 3 years with broken fire place - yahoo!) it was just our little family with some yummy soup and homemade rolls and a candlelit dinner eaten while we were finally able to just chill and be with each other. perfect Christmas night.
