Christmas Day!!!! Merry Christmas!!!

We had a wonderful day. It was so nice to be able to stay in my PJ's ALL day and watch the kids play with their new toys! We enjoyed spending time together and making sweet memories. Here are some pictures of our day............................

Christmas Eve

We have had a wonderful time these past few days spending time together and reflecting on the birth of Jesus. These memories I will cherish forever! The kids are at such a sweet age. We so are blessed and thank God for this awesome job of being parents.

On Christmas Eve, like always we made a birthday cake for Jesus. This was the first year that Drew has been interested in helping.:-) We had fun baking together.

We also went to the Christmas Eve service at church. To our surprise the kids sat during the entire service! YEAH!!!!:-) It was a wonderful time of singing and worship as we celebrated the birth of our Lord and Savior!

When we got back from church the kids enjoyed working on a fun craft that Nana gave them! They decorated Mary, Joseph, Baby Jesus, a shepherd and the wise man as we told them the story of the birth of Jesus!

I have added pictures of our fun day! Hope you enjoy!!!!

Getting ready to bake!!!!



This is the best part about baking!
Our finished product:-)! HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS!!!!!


working on their craft



Oh, I forgot to add that the kids always get to open up 1 gift each before bed on Christmas Eve(it is always new PJ's). They were very excited! Drew did not have on any clothes because he had just gotten out of the bath!!!:-)

Fun at the Beach!!!!!

Here are the promised beach pictures. The kids had so much fun running around on the beach. It was a beautiful day, the high was @ 70! I am glad that I packed extra clothes for them. Drew was soaking wet and had sand EVERYWHERE!














Medieval Times!

While my parents were here we went to Medieval Times in Myrtle Beach. We had soooo much fun! Drew and Grace Anne LOVED it and have not stopped talking about the show! Daniel and I have been once before, but it was still a great show even the second time around! I have LOTS of pictures of the trip, so ENJOY!!!:-)

They were sooo excited
