| Bev, Louis' mom, sent the WhirlyPop popcorn maker to me for Christmas and it is awesome. It makes the best popcorn. Anyways, Rikki, our elf on the shelf always leaves a Christmas bag for the girls and of course, what would Christmas Eve be without homemade cookies?!?! This year we made raisinette and oatmeal chocolate chip. |
 |
| bad Christmas Eve pup! :) |
 |
| Bella trying to eat her egg roll with chopsticks....did not go well! |
 |
| That man right there waited in line at Ghuang Zhou for almost THREE hours to pick up our Chinese food. Literally 10 minutes after I called and ordered they stopped taking any new customers or orders to go for the rest of the night because they were that busy- I ordered at 5:45 and they were supposed to be open until 9:00 pm. |
 |
| can hardly stand it.... |
 |
| new jammies and slippers |
 |
| they will probably get matching jammies for as long as I can get away with it! :) |
 |
| Christmas morning- we told them they had to wait until 7 to wake us up. They made it until 7:30. :) |
 |
| Stockings first- she was stoked about some thinking putty |
 |
| and on to presents. We were straight up with the girls and told them each they had $150 from us for Christmas and how did they want it? cash, presents or both? Rachel chose both and the other two chose gifts. |
 |
| Bella was super psyched about her drone |
 |
| and Zo was super happy about her bitty baby |
 |
| They had so much fun. Louis and I got each other nothing this year. The house is our gift and we are super thankful. |

| The only picture of dessert- chocolate fondue with all the traditional dippers. After dessert we all watched Gremlins 2 and ate popcorn! It was a wonderful day spent together and we couldn't have asked for anything more. We wish you all a Merry Christmas. |
