We had another blessed and fun-filled Christmas at the Miller House this year. My mom and dad finally made it here a few days before Christmas after dodging storms and battling colds. The kids were ecstatic when they finally arrived. We spent lots of time playing and eating and painting. (I put my mom and dad to work in my kitchen painting and tearing out cabinets and putting up new light fixtures. Pictures to come...I still have some painting to do as we didn't quite get as much done as we thought we would.)
The kids kept Grandma and Papa busy putting together legos, doing art projects and playing Mable's Toy Store. Mable, (aka mom), sets up her toy shop every time mom comes to visit and sells the kids' toys back to them. I am not sure why Austin and Aubrey love this so much, maybe it is the Red Neck accent Mable uses or the good deals she gives them on their toys, but they always beg to play it. Lou Lou (aka me) is Mable's partner. She likes to sell puzzles that Glow. In. The. Dark.
Here are some pics from December.
The kiddos after helping decorate the Christmas Tree, and after I re-decorated to make sure the ornaments were evenly dispersed. (Playing with the functions on my camera here, I like the effect!)
Waiting to see Santa...
My beautiful kiddos
Christmas Morning...notice it is still dark outside. I had to make the kids wait until 6 am to get up. Naps were definitely a part of Christmas afternoon.
Christmas Day...we had a White Christmas!!!
