We slept over at my parents’ house Christmas Eve, and had the best Christmas! Zeke and Lilly make everything magical again!
Zeke opened his present from Grandma and Grandpa first. It was a battery powered 4-wheeler! He rode it all day, and did stunts like this. He would stand, and push the button on the handle bars that makes it go.
Lilly’s first present was from her Grandma and Grandpa in North Dakota. It was a “Baby’s First Bible” board book, and the cutest one I’ve seen!

All we wanted for Christmas last year, and this year was our baby! We are so happy Lilly is our little girl! Our children are our greatest gifts!
Lilly is almost too long for your lap Carlin :)

My mom made Lilly this beautiful scrapbook. I love it! I have not been given the gift of craftiness, and I don’t scapbook very well. My blog is about at far as I go with scrapbooking. Jimmy’s gift to me was putting our blog into a format to print, it took him hours! He uploaded the document to lulu.com, and they will put it into a bound book. I’m excited for it to come in the mail!
Zeke’s tool shop from Mommy and Daddy. (Thanks Shirley for finding it!) Zeke always wants Jimmy’s tools, and wants to help with home improvement projects.
Lilly liked Zeke’s 4-wheeler too!

Zeke helped make brunch, and thought all of the bacon was for him. He stashed a lot of it in his basket in front, and then used his seat for a table!

Looks like you guys had a wonderful Christmas! I’m wondering how Jimmy turned your blog into a document to put it into a book on lulu.com. I just went to their website to see what it was all about and it looks great but it’s acting like you have to upload a j.peg (picture) file instead of being able to enter a URL (blog address). I might have to give you guys a call and see how you did it because I’ve been wanting to turn my blog into a hard bound book for a long time!!! ;)
Nathan formats my blog for me every year as a gift, too, for my birthday (which is early enough in the year that I don’t have to wait long). Isn’t it good to have tech-savvy husbands?? I love my blog-books, too. :-)
Sounds like you guys had a great christmas. Justin has the same seahorse Lilly has in Blue. It is a great crib toy. She will be able to turn it on herself soon. A great self soother.
Ditto….please Jimmy, share how you did it.
Pictures were awesome. My favorite is the stashed bacon……so cute!
I’m glad you guys had a good Christmas and what a wonderful Christmas EVE to boot!
Thanks for making Christmas so wonderful. Zeke, I will always remember you riding your 4-wheeler all around our livingroom and your neat tricks. And, Lilly”s smiles for all of us. Family and love are the greatest gifts ever. We are so blessed to have each other to love forever. Grams
Looks like you guys had a wonderful Christmas! How fun to stay at your parents! your kids are darling as always :)
