Early Christmas With Grandma And Grandpa

What's not to love about having two Christmas mornings?

Our wonderful week with Steve's mom and dad culminated in two, very fun Christmas activities - going to the Christmas show, The Greatest Gift, at our church, and having a "fake" Christmas morning with all of the presents to go with it!


Getting ready to go to the Christmas show at church! Bella and Evelyn are wearing their new, handmade sweaters from Great-Grandma Ferguson! They are beautiful! 

We decided to keep Bella with us during the show since it was going to be so much music, and she did great staying quiet! She loved the wisemen and Baby Jesus, and I only had to threaten a whispered spanking once!


Christmas PJ's on "Christmas Eve"...a Wires family tradition! The girls will wear these again on the real Christmas Eve when we play our game before bedtime. I think I stole the game idea from Steve's sister, Stacey, and I can't wait to do it this year for the first time!


Grandma helping Evelyn play with her new bunny toy.


Oh my word! I was just as excited as Bella was when I found out she was getting this gift! A Merida doll and her horse, Angus, from the movie Brave! Bella loves these toys! Angus has traveled everywhere with us this week!


Evelyn checking out her new "Baby's 1st" ornament...a beautiful, white, rocking horse.


Bella and Evelyn "helping" Grandpa. Once Bella figured out the whole concept, I'm not sure anyone got to open their own gifts!


Evelyn with her new stocking from Grandma! It has a Santa on it, just like Bella, and Evelyn's is green. Love! 

This week was so much fun with Steve's side of the family here! We got to share some special Christmas activities and make some wonderful memories! I'll post some cousin pictures soon!
