First I have to show you one of Ty's favorite things to do. Standing! He loves to stand and be a big boy. When you stand him up, he gets this big smile on his face and sticks his neck out and his tummy out, as if to say, "I'm a big man now!". It's so darn cute. :)
So Christmas Eve arrived and after spending the day doing last
minute errands, we attended the children's Mass at 4 o'clock at the beautiful Catholic church down the street. Here's Tatum taking a moment outside for some snack. :)
And I had to get a picture of my beautiful Cali in front of the tree. She has grown to love laying under the tree all day and will be sad to see it go.
After a delicious meal of lobster, cheesy potatoes, green bean casserole and fruit salad, we got ready for bed and made sure to leave some cookies and milk for Santa.
Here's what it looked like in the morning. Santa came!!!
And here's Tatum with her very large pile of gifts. A few hours after she finished opening the last gift, she asked if we could open any more gifts. Oh, poor girl, the post Christmas depression had set in.
And here's Ty with his pile. He didn't get to open too many since his sister took care of that for the most part, but he loved watching and loved playing with all the new toys.
And here's Tatum enjoying a ride in her new wagon. Of course she had to get dressed up in her new clothes, new dress up skirt and a purse and high heels. The funniest was when we stopped at the neighbors house to get a candy cane and she had a hard time getting out in her heals. Of goodness! :)
Then on Saturday, my mom and I took the kids to the Del to see the skate rink and enjoy some yummy hot cocoa.
They have such beautiful decorations at the Del. Here's their beach themed tree.
And then we headed over to Sea Port Village to ride on the fastest up and down in town. Tatum said this one is by far her favorite!
All in all, we had a wonderful holiday together and we're just so blessed. Now just 364 days till the next Christmas! :)
