Sadie and Emma opening up a few Christmas toys from Santa.  They got through the tissue paper.  They loved the toys.

After they play their chasing games with each other they crash and take a nap.

This was the only Christmas area I had in the house this year.  We kept things really simple.

Christmas Day-December 25, 2014-We had a white christma

Woke up Christmas morning to snow. It snowed all day long.

We let Emma and Sadie go outside and play in the snow.  We made a cute video of them.  They loved it.  Emma had snow on her chin she looked like Santa.

December 15, 2014

Ashley and Ben sent their Christmas gifts to us mid December.  They said to open up the Christmas round box now and save the others for Christmas day.  I got home from work late and could not wait to open the box.  Ashley told me she was going to surprise us with the sex of the baby.  When I opened it, I found this yellow duck inside with a baby rattle that said "It's a girl".  I knew it from day one it was a girl.  Ben and I joked around about it a lot, he was sure it would be a boy.  Maybe next time Ben.  I am glad Ashley is having a girl first.  We are all so excited.  Ashley and Ben will name her Kinsley Ryah Allan.
