Christmas Stuff :)

We had a really nice Christmas. We stayed home this year, boy was it nice to not travel. It was such a relaxing few days away from all the work we normally have to do around here.

We got dumped on at the beginning of  November and then it all melted and we didn't get any snow until the day before Christmas.

Tyler working on getting the lights on the Christmas tree, Ameilya "helping" ;)

Ameilya in the shopping cart at Walmart getting ready to sit on Santa's lap.

Ameilya didn't like Santa very much, she's not super fond of white hair or facial hair ;)

Santa was good to us this year and brought us presents :)

Christmas decor on the piano :)

Our Christmas tree, with all the ornaments high enough so that little toddler fingers can't reach them ;) Such a fashion statement, I know!

Christmas mantle

 We have a fun tradition of hanging all the Christmas cards we receive on the back of the front door so we can see them often :)

Christmas morning, Rylee opening up her big gift from Tyler

Tyler got me a new computerized sewing machine, just what I wanted! :)

Santa brought Ameilya a "Santa Bear" talking book and bear, she loves them!

Wonderful Christmas messes :)

Trying to help a sweet baby open her presents ;) better luck next year as she wasn't really interested in ripping the paper off to see what was underneath!

Ameilya all dressed up and ready to go play in the snow for the first time :) She didn't really like the snow, just stood there confused and kinda sad looking until Tyler picked her up, then she just wanted to snuggle and be held so we went inside :)
