Christmas Time

We had another wonderful Christmas season again this year. It always goes by so fast after all the planning and preparations. Here are just a few photos from family parties. Emma had so much fun playing with all of her cousins!!!!
Emma, Makalynn and Great-Grandpa Weemhoff getting ready for the big party at Grandma and Grandpa Dryer's.

Emma and Addison eating some treats from their stockings.

Emma was very excited to open her presents this year. She certainly didn't need any help. :)


Emma, Alyssa, and Makalynn in their matching princess slippers from Grandma and Grandpa Dryer.



Emma and Hallie cuddling up!




Emma and Momma. She even sat still so I could braid her hair.





Emma and Daddy spent some time in her new tent Christmas Day at Grandma and Grandpa Erickson's. She really loves it, and sleeps in it every night now!


Our little princess showing off her dress up clothes from Aunt Lindsey and Uncle Kyle. She took her pj's right off and wanted to wear her "pretty dress".


Christmas Eve at home after church......almost ready to jump in bed and wait for Santa.


My Erickson side of the family does fun "theme" Christmas parties. This year was breakfast time - wearing your comfy clothes and all. The surprise was that we were also throwing Lindsey a bridal "shower" at the same time. My aunt couldn't help but get shower caps for the whole group!! Linds was very surprised, and we had a great time as always. Here, Linds is getting ready to open some gifts with Emma and Lauren helping.


Come on Mom! I love this look


Lindsey and our cousin Suzanne. Suzanne was the mastermind behind the surprise.
Emma and Lauren playing the keyboard. Emma loved hanging out with her big cousin.
We are blessed beyond measure, and are thankful to have such a wonderful family. We hope the holidays found you all happy and healthy as well.

Such great pictures. I love the picture of Emma all dressed up and Makalynn just asked if she could come and play in Emma's tent. We had so much fun celebrating Christmas with you. It was a very fun day!! We love you
