Christmas Part Two

We have been going to a local restaurant on Christmas Eve morning for the past three years. We always have a yummy breakfast to kick of the festivites.

After breakfast, we came home and got our bake on for Christmas Eve!

We spent Christmas Eve with my dad's side at my dad's house. We had a blast!

Our little family!

Christmas Morning was fun in our house this year! Both girls were so excited to see that Santa came!

We had a pretty lazy Christmas Day since my mom was working. We opened gifts, then Todd's sister and family came over for a little bit of a late brunch. After that, we had a family nap, and then played.  My stepdad came for a visit later in the day.

A couple of days later, we celebrated Christmas at my mom and Ted's house!

Christmas 2014- Part One

We had such a fun holiday season with the girls! Adeline was able to partake in the fun this year, which made it even more special. I'm going to recap in two posts. This first post will cover some fun events leading up until Christmas Eve!

This was us cutting our christmas tree down at Tonry Tree Farms the weekend after Thanksgiving-- our annual tradition.  This was the first year that we went to the other side of the tree farm, and also the first year we chose the type of tree we did.  It was such an awesome tree!

Helping Mama decorate! Look at the needles on the tree-- so cool!

 The next weekend we went to the North Pole on the Polar Express right out of Newburyport. The weather was kind of icky, so that stunk, but the kids had fun anyway! We ended up going to the Black Cow for dinner after which was super yummy!

All ready in their pjs!

All of the kids! We didn't know that Ella was going to match the girls-- too cute!

We visited the houses on Arthur Street in Danvers! They have such a fabulous display with all donations going towards Children's Hospital-- a great cause.

Reese's Preschool hosts Literacy Nights for the families of the students.  This particular one was read by the Grinch! So cool!

Daddy and Reesey worked hard on building a fabulous gingerbread house that I picked up at Target.

Pictures with Santa!

Reese's school planned a trip to Boston to see the Nutcracker! Nanny was able to come with us- which was such a special treat.  Reese will remember that!
