Christmas Numero Uno

Due to hectic schedules, traveling and oh yea...Santa, we decided that we would celebrate Christmas with the Wisks in January (I am going to let Andy do that blog). So we spent Christmas morning at our house and then proceeded to Grandmom and Pop's house for Christmas dinner with the Jones family.

Andy loves making Christmas Eve dinner and we enjoy feeding whomever will join us. So Nana and Papa bought us Omaha Steaks for Christmas (which was a pretty awesome present). Top Chef Andy decided he was going to make those steaks for Christmas Eve dinner. We had a great family dinner, including Louie and our good friend Christy, whose husband was working that night. The top chef never lets us down on Christmas Eve!!

Christmas morning, Julia didn't know it from any other morning, but I think she came to love it! I had to help her open the first gift, but after that, she knew just what to do with the others! I also realized how much I say "Oh Boy" because she says that a lot now!! So we had an awesome morning of playing with all of her new toys. We would like to thank everyone who was so generous to buy her Christmas presents as well. This girl really is loved by many!!
Then we piled into the car for our hour trip up to my mom and dad's house. Julia loves playing with her cousins and she really had a blast on Christmas. I think her favorite part of the day was handing out the presents to everyone rather than opening them! She got more awesome new toys and really loves her new baby dolls. She got twins and she loves pushing them in their stroller. She has to put on her coat and her hat and she walks them around the house! She takes at least one baby everywhere she goes.Although this Christmas was a blast, I think next Christmas will be even more fun. I think she will have more of an idea of what is going on and she will really be able to have some fun!

She is the cutest thing ever. And her auntie misses her. Thanks for the post. Love her Xmas outfit. PS - I am glad she has chosen to repeat you instead of Andy.

Yeah, she and Benny take a baby everywhere they go. Plus the way Luke was playing with them, you may need 3...lol. And yes I agree with Amanda - better to copy you than andy. :-)
