December was such a fun month... So fun and busy that I didn't have time to sit down once to blog. I had actually decided to throw the towel in on the blogging thing, but a miracle happened today. I have found myself home alone with only one child. I have approximately one Baby Einstein movie to do this. So here goes: A quick glimpse of some of our family's holiday fun this last month!
When Carson saw our home lit with Christmas lights for the first time, he exclaimed, "It's a gingerbread house!" Don't kids make Christmas so fun?
We invited over the Ferney family to make gingerbread houses for Family Night. This was our first year to make them without a kit, and it was funner! This is one of kids' favorite Christmas traditions!
How awesomely talented are we?

Carson and Noah were in a world of there own building there very own creation!

Sweet Ashton modeling his "Santa's Helper" jammies!

We had such a great time at the first ever Luke Christmas party! All but two of my siblings were there! (Getting all of us together is a rare thing these days.) We enjoyed yummy food, hilarious games, and of course, a little talent show--a Luke tradition.

Luke cousins: Kyler, Jake, Jaden, Carson, Josh, Brennan, and Ashton.

More Luke cousins so grown up: Kaylee, Jessie, Kimberly, Koryn, & Lauren.

Grandma Luke reading us "The Last Straw." She gave us each this book, and Justin made everyone a kindness manger.

Christmas Eve is always so much fun at Grandma Stevens' house! After a breakfast dinner in our Christmas jammies, we always re-enact the Nativity story... and Grandma Stevens' Nativity is unlike any other. It is a top notch production with fabulous costumes, backdrop, and props. Ashton made his acting debut as Baby Jesus. He did great as long as we were singing and he could see his mommy! Carson got to play the big role of Joseph this year!

I think Justin looks pretty sexy with a beard! Don't ya think? Ashton is keeping close tabs on his mommy!

The angels and shepherds singing praises. I just love McKenna's face in this photo. She just loves this sort of thing!

Milk and cookies for Santa! Let the fun begin!
