Christmas Traditions

So here are a couple of our family traditions. We went to our Ward Christmas party. The kids got to talk to Santa and report. All but Austin. I guess he is getting to old.
So this is Courtney with Santa.
Cason and Santa

Cael's turn
Cara


Then every year we get the kids Christmas pj's. Seems to also be a tradition to get them to big. HAHAHA! That would be my fault. Almost seems like if you want the shirt to fit, the pants have to be to big. On the up side they get to wear them for awhile.
Also we put a Santa key out every year so that Santa can get into our house. This year I asked Austin to hang the key.


Next we leave some cookies, carrots and milk out for Santa and the deer.

Courtney made the plate look so nice.



Lastly I just wanted to share a few more pictures from Christmas. I just love the funny face one of Cara. Merry Christmas everyone. Hope you all enjoyed your time with your family and friends.
On a side note. I am happy that my kids are getting old enough to really ponder the true meaning of Christmas. It was a great way to end the day with a family prayer where Cason said how thankful he was for Jesus Birthday.

Happy Birthday Twinners!

Cason- Is our loving artist. He loves to draw. He loved playing soccer this past fall and looks forward to playing baseball in the spring. He also enjoys dance class with all his friends. Always good for a hug. We love Cason.
Cael- He is so funny. Always laughing and bringing joy in the home. He loved soccer and is also going to play baseball in the spring. He also loves to stand on his head. He is even pretty good at spinning on his head. We love Cael.




I can remember the day they were born like it was last month. They came into the world in a crazy way and I cant say it hasn't been just as exciting to have them in our home. We are so blessed to have them healthy. Happy 6th Birthday Cason and Cael!
