December, part 2

our Christmas morning came early this year.

 
we celebrated on December 15th (since we would be gone on the 25th) with homemade gluten-free cinnamon rolls and presents under the tree

 
this year we tried something a little different.  the kids got stockings then everyone got 4 gifts - something you want, something you need, something to wear, something to read.  i loved it!  

 
stockings

 
can we freeze time please?

 
i mean.  no words.

 
freddy's want, need, wear, and read

 
i think he liked his "want"

 
some of laurel's loot




 
her favorite: this reversible twirly-girl dress.  i want one.

 
some of pat's stuff.  his "read" was the only surprise.  i had this blog printed in book form for 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011

 
that afternoon we went to a play downtown

 
laurel opened some presents from buddy and kissy

 
i'd say they did a great job!

 
a couple of random shots
