It took me a while to post these, but here are some pictures from Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. One of my favorite memories of when I was a kid was of my Mom frosting cookie after cookie for Eric and I to decorate with the sprinkles. I so want to pass that memory on to my kids, so we tried it this year. Spencer's first cookie was very quickly eaten, but after that first one he got the idea and started just putting the sprinkles on them. It was fun...probably more for me than anyone, but we had a good moment as a family and that's what matters most. 
Christmas Eve with Dean's family. All the kids circled around the tree waiting to get their presents. Even the dog, Mitsy, was waiting so patiently for her turn to get a surprise too! :)
Aubrey dressed up in the bling from Grandma and Grandpa. Nothing makes a princess happier than new jewels!
Of course, when the girls get to wear something, Spencer has to take his turn too.
Our house Christmas morning before the kids woke up and chaos erupted!
Got some good morning snuggles in with Daddy before brother woke up.
Start with the stockings!
Uncle Eric got the kids some silly string...all I can say is watch out! Payback is coming!
They both asked for guitars for Christmas this year...Aubrey was very specific in her request for a purple guitar. They were so excited!
Spencer got a blue guitar and is actually pretty good at it. There is not much cuter than seeing both kids sitting on the arms of our chair facing each other with their guitars singing and playing their favorite songs. (I'm trying to get a video of it, but they stop when they see me so I have to be sneaky!)
Auntie Hollie and Uncle Paul gave Spencer the monkey hat and Aubrey the beautiful pink tutu. Who says a princess can't wear a monkey hat every once in a while!
Cousin Justin got Spencer this bubble Mater. To say that this was a big hit doesn't really come close to how Spencer felt about this toy...still loves it!
Uncle Eric with our great niece Madisyn.
Uncle Paul and Aunt Hollie also got them a Smart Cycle. We need to work on the pedaling though, because they only know how to go backward so it makes the game kind of hard. They do like to sit and pedal even when the game isn't on.
Not only did they get guitars, but they got a tambourine as well. It was a very musical Christmas at our house this year.
Auntie Dusti and Uncle Eric got them a fort set, big fun for Daddy who gets to build them all kinds of fun forts.
Aubrey is funny, she would pretend to be a princess in a tower like in the movie Tangled.
