Christmas Eve before church service -12/24/2011

We had a very exciting Christmas this year! Not only did we have family in town, Papa Dan, Grandma ConBon and Auntie Julie, we were able to celebrate Christmas morning in our own home with Will who was so much fun.


Christmas Eve dinner after church. Peninsula China Bistro for sushi! See Will in the middle of the snowman family?

After Christmas Eve dinner, Julie and I made a homemade Pecan Pie for our dessert the next morning. It's fun to cook in the kitchen with your sister! Especially when  you can throw flour in her face!

Pecan Pie... Mmmm. Our favorite.

It was so exciting to see Will set out cookies and milk for Santa. He drank the glass of milk we were leaving for Santa so Mommy had to refill the glass. HAHA.

Leaving cookies and milk for Santa

The first thing Will did when he came downstairs in the morning was check the plate and glass. Then he was in awe looking at the stockings which were filled with goodies. After that, he noticed the shopping cart from Grammy and Papa Johnson so he had to zoom all around the house with that before we did stockings. LOL

The big Santa gift was his Suzuki Four Wheeler which Will likes to call his "motorcycle". After about 10 minutes of practice, he was well on his way to mastering how to manuever the quad around the neighborhood. It's only a 6 volt and it goes about 2.5 mph. Surprisingly, it's faster than I though it was going to be! But we are able to walk along side of him while he drives so that's good. Watch out for Daddy's car! Whew. That was close.

Christmas Day

Thank you to my family who traveled to our home to spend this special holiday with us. We certainly had a blast with all of you!

Merry Christmas.
