Our Christmas

 We started off Christmas our usual way of going to the Candlelight church service then dinner at Gigi & Bum Bum's. 

(I'll post Christmas Eve pics soon too) 

My mom has always passed out one gift to everyone to open on Christmas Eve and it's always new jammies! This year Violet was a little disappointed that her first gift wasn't a toy. Oh, well :) Gigi and Bum Bum got a new puppy and he kept the kids busy. 

 Santa brought a tractor with MegaBlocks for Zander and a horse with a doll for Violet! 

 Violet really wanted a friend for her American Girl doll. She named this one Emily then said, "I name lots of my dolls Emily." So cute.

 Zander thinks this "Hee-Haw" is his personal horse to ride! Haha. It's hilarious but I'm sure Zander exceeds the weight limit. We try to keep him off it. Here, he's wearing his Daddy's new hat with his Batman cape. He loves to play dress up with anything he finds. 

 Daddy and Violet figuring out her first Legos set. 

Our Little Batman! 

I found this cape and mask at a local craft fair. Zander loves it. 

We had to quietly take it off him after he fell asleep that night. 

 Something pretty cool happened on Christmas Day. It snowed! Yep, here in Texas. We got a few inches. It was mostly ice so not too fun to play in. But Violet was absolutely thrilled. 

We get to celebrate Christmas one more time tomorrow with my husband's family. 

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas with family & friends!
