Christmas Activities

The days leading up to Christmas the kids went to see Santa a few times. Notice Stella isn't in a single picture with Santa. She's terrified. I took the kids to the mall to ride the train and we went to look at Christmas lights in various neighborhoods.

We celebrated "our" family Christmas the morning of December 23. Daddy had been gone for a week. He arrived home late on the 22nd so the kids were excited to see him when they woke, and they finally got to open their Christmas presents Thursday morning. We left for Nebraska by 1 pm that day so we could have Christmas with extended families throughout the weekend. We drove right into an ice storm in Nebraska and witnessed several vehicles and large trucks in the ditches. We were going only 30 mph on the Interstate in Nebraska (usually drive 80 mph.) We were one of the lucky ones to have made it to our destination safely.

Here's a peek of "our" family Christmas.
