christmas morning

Our stockings were hung with care in hopes St. Nicholas would come, and he did!

We had such a great morning. Cole woke up and came and got into our bed, he laid there a minute talking to us like normal and all of a sudden he realized what day it was! He was so excited to go see if Santa came! We woke up Hallie and went to see what Santa brought and then opened the gifts under the tree.

Cole loved all his presents and I was surprised to see Hallie really loved her dolly at such a young age!

This is the present Cole wrapped and gave to Kevin

hansen family christmas party

The Hansen Family Christmas party was at Denice and Brian's again this year. Before we got started on opening gifts we all went down stairs and played the Wii's dance game! It was such a blast. Larissa is seriously a pro and looks so good cause she gets so into it. Even the boys were playing for a while.

Afterwards we opened gifts. Hallie got some new toys from Gretchen that she loves, Cole got a buzz light year phone from Dee that was a total hit, Kevin got some cereal bowls that Denice made that we ALL love and I got a pedicure from someone in Lisa's family (I dont remember who..., thats what I get for doing this 6 months late)

We had an awesome time hanging out and eating yummy food, we just love doing things with our families!

misc moments

Aunt Lisa got Cole a Buzz watch!

She loved eating every decoration I got out

everything is a hat, right?

She loves to climb the stairs and have you try and get her

Cole has this new game where everything in your body goes "skeewampus" and he gets out his tool box and works on you or has you work on him. He can do it for hours!

So tired she fell asleep mid crawl

Cole ate who knows what and fell asleep, apparently before he was finished eating
