Merry Christmas 2011

It was a wonderful Christmas! 

We had lots of fun playing games, playing outside and just enjoying each other. 
Charlotte would had preferred that it snowed, but other than that it was perfect.

Our most favorite thing to do on Christmas Eve is to attend the candle light service at our church

I snuck in a picture of the service right before us. Sssshhhh! Don't tell - there's a no picture policy in church. 
That bit of info I found out about 30 minutes after I had taken this one....

We were all excitedly awaiting Santa's arrival. My friend, Katie, had told me about an app that tracks Santa's progression throughout Christmas Eve. We immediately downloaded it and loved checking in for location updates - Poland, Madagascar, Finland, etc.  It got really fun once we knew Santa was in the United States! 

Charlotte woke up around 7am and called from the top of the stairs, "Is it morning yet"?

Santa knew Charlotte was really good this year. He brought her a "big girl" bike, and My Little Pony, Sesame Street and Strawberry Shortcake toys.

Nothing is greater than watching a child's joy on Christmas morning.





Justin equally loves her toys.

Once we had finished dinner and each taken naps, we were excited to play games and preform our band. I'm terribly sorry that I do not have a video to share of this moment. I assure you it was greatness!
Below was my attempt at the self timer...

We'll keep you posted on our next concert.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!
