The last of the Christmas season

Before we start a new year, here is what I captured with the last of December.  We had a wonderful and simple holiday here at home with our little family.

Makenzie performed in the Nutcracker this year with her dance/tumbling group.  They always put on such a great show.  This year she was a mouse.  They were the cutest little mice I've ever seen.

 She was disappointed that she didn't need her hair and makeup done, as part of the performance.

 We were graced with several packages for the holiday season.  One was a big box of Washington apples from Tyler's future employer.  Ellionna wasted no time in enjoying those!
 The box is always so much more fun to play with than the actual package that was sent. 

 It got a little out of control within just a few minutes and mom had to call it quits!  We had styrofoam peanuts all over the house!

Mom had a birthday, too!  I was spoiled and showed much love.  I love how my kids are posing for this picture with their true personalities! 

Tyler was able to score free VIP hockey tickets from the hospital.  Now I'm really not into hockey or professional sports that much, but I didn't mind the excuse to have a date with my hubby!  We had a lot of fun.


Christmas Eve was spent tracking Santa,
 making Christmas crafts,
 and watching movies.

We ate way too much yummy food, too.  Santa came and I didn't get a single picture of it.  The kids were spoiled and we have enjoyed playing with all the new toys.  We wish we were closer to visit family, but it just didn't happen this year. 

 Merry Christmas, and to all a good night!

Looks like a great Christmas season. I love the mouse costume and the picture of you with your kids on your birthday.
