Christmas Day

As with any holiday, so much stuff happened on Christmas Day, it is difficult to post everything we did! Christmas Eve is always candelight service. It is usually a special night of music and worship...but with Ruth at 14 months and just walking, she is too busy to sit still. She is the curious one for sure.

Christmas morning was so much fun. Jonah, Sarah, Erin and Ruth were all SO excited about the cool new toys that Santa Claus brought to them. Ruth got a really cool Ball Popper and she loves "ba's". Erin got a bunch of stuff including a Dora bicycle, but she isn't so interested in the bicycle even though she specifically asked for it... Sarah got a really cool table that has dolls that are big and small - she is a doll fiend. Jonah got some Star Wars Legos and game stuff. One of Erin's favorite gifts was the rocket shooter that Aunt Teena, Uncle Bryan, Jonah and Sarah gave her! She also loves the hat that Grandmother made her.

Grandma Rosy always buys the girls matching pajamas to wear on Christmas Eve and such cute polka dotted ones this year.

Teena and Bryan gave Sarah a beautiful black chihuahua that she named "Cocoa". For those of you who don't know Sarah (6 yrs. old), let's just say choc-o-holic. Erin was a little fearful of the puppy, but could not resist holding her!

These were familiar sights - Jonah playing his music and Ric drinking coffee (Oh, Lord, I can't believe he's 20 years old...)

Aunt Alicia LOVES Erin and Erin LOVES Aunt Alicia!!!!

What a tiring day we had...
