Madeline got a bike for Christmas. She had outgrown her old one and was ready to ride the streets in style.

Grandma and Grandpa Berrett stayed with us for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. They enjoyed the "magic" that Christmas morning brings. Grandparents are also handy with a snap knife and undoing all the twist ties on the toy packages!

Christmastime...

• 

Madeline and Jacob were excited about their new pj's. They opened them Christmas Eve.

This was our Christmas card picture. We had a great time at the Turner family reunion at Newport Beach. I love going to the beach. We lived by the ocean in North Carolina, Virginia, and Texas. We are land locked in Idaho so we were excited to play in the deep blue sea again.

ahhh, the magic of christmas... the christmas tree is decorated Madeline was looking at the tree and thinking about all the fun ornaments. Madeline and Jacob both have ornaments from school and the past years when they have received them as gifts.

candy corn, gummy worms, pastel mints, cinnamon swirls, frosted shredded mini wheats, and more candy!

Jacob's favorite part of the gingerbread decorating is the gingerbread eating. If you noticed his mouth is full of candy. Yummy!
