Christmas in Colorado

We woke up to a white Christmas, how about you? It was the perfect day to stay inside and open presents. The fire was going and there was so much joy and happiness in the house....what a beautiful setting for our first Christmas in Colorado.
Santa came while the kids were sleeping and brought baby pillow pets for my three, a horse for Victoria, and a baby Bella for Bella....They were all thrilled with their gifts.
Cindy was showered with jewelry this year....lucky girl
Before opening presents (I realize the picture of Cindy is out of order), we read the Christmas story from the Bible. We love this book for small kids because they can push the noise buttons to make the story more interesting. Caleb read the story this year...
Gift time....we took several breaks....some to eat, some to shovel snow (there was like 18 inches out there), and some to play with the new toys before opening new ones.
Doodle bear from Caleb and Keira
Slippers for Grandpa....

The girls got each other a Sing a ma jig....and both were thrilled...

Finally all the gifts were opened and the kids spent the day playing with their new toys. Caleb and Josh got right to work putting the new Ninjago game together.
After a day like that, I can't help but feel extremely blessed and loved!!!
