This year Christmas was a little different. We had so much snow start on Christmas Eve that we were not able to go see family. We stayed home and celebrated together. Christmas Eve the snow begin to fall, and kept falling and blowing, they called it the blizzard of 09'. The kids wanted to go out in it, we tried it, and they lasted for about 5 seconds, because it was blowing so hard. The next day, Christmas Day was brighter. No wind, so they got to go out and enjoy the beautiful snow. It was too powdery to make a snow man so the kids made snow angels instead. Such a fun time for them, and I so enjoyed watching them.
Christmas Day, the kids were of course ready to open presents. We have a tradition of reading the Christmas story before we open presents, then they get to tear into them. Izze helped sort the presents this year, like a big girl, so very helpful!
They received so many great gifts from their nanny's and papa's. They are proudly displaying their new treasures. We even had a great Christmas dinner, thanks to Walmart down the road, that was about as far as we wanted to try and get out. It was a really great Christmas spent with my most precious people!! We will always remember the Christmas of 09'.
