Christmas Day

We started the morning off with a little birthday party for Jesus. Instead of cake, though, we opted for cinnamon rolls. Singing.
Kenz blew out the candle.And even rejoiced when she was done.
Kolter, well, he just sorta took it all in.
After breakfast came time for stockings. (or cute little bags that suffice as stockings)
Lots of goodies were loaded inside.
After the stockings they very much enjoyed opening up gifts.

This one even had Kolter interested. He wasn't really all about opening presents. He was more into crawling around checking out what had already been opened.
A sweet Christmas smooch. Sometimes they just love each other so. It melts my heart.
A princess doll for Kennedy. All she wanted for Christmas was princess stuff.
The doll came with a special crown just for her. She wore it most of the morning.
Kooper having fun playing with daddy and his new mini Buzz.
Miss Thang still in the crown playing with Koop's new scooter.
Kolter waving hello!
Our sweet little peanut enjoying his 1st Christmas.
Kennedy as well...
And Kooper too.
We took a couple for memory sake with the self timer so I thought I'd add one of us as well.
Another of our pretty girl all ready for party #2.
After our fun filled morning we headed to another family gathering with my mom's extended side. My brother moved to CA in Feb. so it's been almost a year since we've seen him. He is SO tan. It was fun for all of us, including the kids, to catch up with him.
Koley was laughing about something in this pic.
Cousins~ Grace and Kennedy had a blast playing together.
All the cousins minus Kooper and Kolter. They kept crawling out of every pic we attempted so this was as good as I could get. We gathered at a church so the kids had a blast running about and making an absolute mess of the nursery. It was a perfect setting for a large group gathering.
The kids crashed hard after party#2. That was a good thing because my parents came over later that night for party#3. I didn't take a ton of pics, if you can believe it, so I'm going to end with this one of Kooper and Kolter. Overall it was a very busy, yet enjoyable day. We thank you Lord for sending Your son.
Glory to God in the Highest!
