Christmas Traditions

Yes, this blog is a little late, but we've been a bit busy! I finally have the weekend to update a bit, so I may post 3 or 4 blogs. It's the best I can do! :)

First- our first Christmas as a family of four! It was wonderful! We had the tree, the gifts, and the monkey bread :) Nathan, Owen, and I rolled the dough and dipped the monkey bread the night before to have it ready for Christmas morning. It will be fun tradition, though I did sort of under-cook it and it wasnt fabulous. Next year! Eventually we will do fun things like stockings, a scavenger hunt, maybe the 12 days of Christmas. This year Owen really just understands gifts and food, so thats what we did!



so much fun, rolling the dough!

the final result for Christmas morning :)

Here are a few pics from Christmas morning. We had a fun tree, Owen enjoyed all of his presents, and we got lots of fun pics and video!
