I can't believe Christmas has come and gone already. I swear it goes by faster every year. Last Christmas Eve the kids opened a package of jammies. This year they kept asking me about it so I decided to try to make them some jammie bottoms. After DAYS of trying to find fabric, cutting, and sewing, I'm quite pleased with the outcome. I did forget to wash them before (okay, I ran out of time) and poor Tristan turned blue due to his pants. I thought it was hilarious--he didn't.
I didn't get the gifts completed before Christmas Eve-so I had to do some of the Santa gifts after our Christmas Eve party. This was such a pain. Kyra's doll bed took over an hour and Cortlynn's bean bag took two bags of beans to fill it. Unfortunately I missed the opening and half of a bag fell onto the floor and than stuck to me. I came close to just putting a bow on the bags and having Cortlynn fill it herself.
This year we hosted the McIntire Family Christmas Eve party. I think we had 26 people over to our house not including us. It was a lot, but I think everyone had fun. Santa even made an appearance. Everyone that wanted to had a chance to sit on his lap--Even Devin and Kyra sat on his lap. Tristan was mesmerized by his visit and was excited for him to take Tinsel-the reindeer- back home with him.
Christmas morning came quickly. Tristan and Cortlynn woke up around 7:30 but actually let us sleep until 9:30. Not too shabby!!!!!

| Tristan's blue foot. This picture doesn't really show how blue he really was. |

| Kyra had a long day. She climbed up on the couch and pretended to go to sleep. |

| I had to post the outfit Kyra wore to grandma and grandpa's house Christmas night. Sparkly skirt and boots. Too cute. |
Today was cold but Tristan and Cortlynn wanted to go sledding. I love the fact we have a sledding hill just up the road from our house. They had a great time and I sat in the car relaxing while Kyra slept.
