Playing

 
 After Christmas dinner we played outside. Avery pulled Piper around in the trailer.

 Piper tried out her new swing.
 Nolan figured out how to get on the roof of the playhouse somehow.
 And then Daddy made us a bonfire!
 Piper got all dressed up to stay warm.

 Aunt Becky stayed far away while the fire was being lit.
 Pop pop and Piper enjoyed the heat.
And then Avery put Oma and Piper to work pulling her in the trailer.

Hanging Out

 
 After a nap, Piper got all dressed up for Christmas!

 She tried to accessorize but the hat was just too stinky!


 Morgan was feeling a little better so she got all dressed up too!

Christmas Breakfast

After all the presents, we had Christmas breakfast! Oma started with some champagne.


 And everyone enjoyed waffles and sausage balls!

 Piper even had some.
Morgan only got waffles because she wasn't feeling 100 percent.

Christmas!

 
 Christmas finally came and Avery hit the jackpot! Santa was very good to her.



 And so was everyone else!


And Nolan got a trampoline! This was a huge hit!

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve we entertained Oma and Pop Pop with putting stuff in bags, and taking stuff out of bags (thanks to Piper)


 And telling them stories.
 Then we went to Aunt Becky and Uncle Jared's house for dinner! Aunt Becky wore her Christmas apron! And made an amazing dinner.
 After dinner teh big kids decorated cookies. 



Oma and Pop Pop

Oma and Pop came the day after the Lewis family left. 

 We took them to one of our favorite places, Chick-fil-A!





Saying Goodbye

 



Gingerbread Houses

Sunday morning we made gingerbread houses.


 It was Katie's first time but she did a great job!
 Megan made houses earlier this year so she came to join us.

The ladies with their beautiful houses!

Christmas with the Lewis Family

After dinner we did Christmas with the Lewis'. Avery got the first thing on her list, a big Hello Kitty!

 Piper didn't care much about presents but she enjoyed her Pup.
 After presents we went on a walk to look at lights.
