Christmas Eve (2)





Another Christmas tradition with Michael's family to to read Christmas stories before the kids go to bed.  Emma wanted to read with us this year as well.  Michael's dad shares a letter he writes or an article he feels is fitting for all of us.

Christmas Eve

mmm...apples!

Robb very proudly showing off that Lily handed her woobie to him.  This isn't something she does easily.

1 of many failed attempts to get a pictures with grandma & grandpa

Lydia kept calling Olivia "baby" all night and wanted to holder her and have her sit on her lap.  She might be 2.5 years older, but Olivia wasn't almost as big as her. :)

Nothing like the kids in the big tub.  They were playing hide-n-seek.

grandpa where's my milk?
