Gracie's Christmas and 1 Year Pictures...

 Back on December 7th, I took Gracie to Baby Bare Photography to get some pictures taken. She was doing some Christmas mini sessions, which was perfect for Gracie just being her birthday and all.

 I love this one.

This one is my absolute favorite! She did such a great job.

Jace's Fort...

Jace has this fort in his room that he has made that he likes to store some of his toys and stuff in and of course sleep in. I just had to take a picture of it because it makes me smile.

Walking...

Gracie is walking!

She really took off on Christmas Eve and Christmas, and now that is all that she wants to do.

She is so happy too!

Cabelas...

Today we headed out in the snow to Cabelas. Cole thought that it was pretty cool to wear my sunglasses.

Gracie enjoyed playing with daddy's fishing line.

Jace brought his batman to entertain him.

Crosland Christmas Party...

Tonight we headed to the Crosland Christmas party. We had yummy food, and then the kids got to decorate gingerbread houses. This is Cole's.

Cole loved eating all of the candy and frosting off of his.

 Then us adults had a gift exchange.

The loot that everyone left with!
Merry Christmas!

White Christmas...

Jace woke up just after 7:30 so excited that Santa had been here. He woke up Cole which took a while, and we decided to let Gracie sleep a while.

Jace is so excited to learn to ride his new scooter!

Gracie loved playing with the wrapping paper.

She loves her new blocks too!

 

The Christmas aftermath...

Jace loves his new art kit!

Jace got a Leapster Explorer, and Cole got an InnoTab 2, they both love them.

Cole fell alseep in motion again.

It was a great Christmas morning! Justin made us all yummy breakfast burritos.

Santa's Been Here...

Looks like Santa found us! Goodnight!

Christmas Eve Party...

Tonight we headed to Ed and Julie's for a Christmas Eve Party. We all loved the breakfast we had for dinner...and then it was on to opening presents.

 

Cole had to open his presents by the garbage so that his wrapping paper went straight in...such a good boy.

 

The kids in their pajamas!

My kids in their pj's.

Cole was being such a ham!

He loves his superhero memory game that he got!

Yep, we gave him and Julie a Wii, he is playing it in this picture.

Sweet, sweet Gracie. She really took off walking tonight too!

Justin playing Jace's shark game! Thanks again Ed and Julie, it was a great party!

Christmas Eve Presents...

The kids get to open a present on Christmas Eve, and they usually get books of some sort...this year was no different.

Gracie with her book.

Cole got a turkey book, and some superhero coloring books.

Jace got a superhero book and coloring book, and a 3D shark book.

Daddy even thought that Jace's 3D shark book was pretty cool!
