Merry Christmas

We had a nice, quiet Christmas at home and were excited to see Avery and Ryan open their gifts. They weren't quite sure what is going on, but they definitely enjoyed the tree and all the ornaments and lights. By Christmas day, they were pretty good at saying "Merry Christmas", "Santa", "HoHoHo" and singing "Jingle Bells".



Raleigh dreaming of a "White Christmas", unfortunately it wasn't in the cards for us this year.

After opening all the presents, we headed downstairs to show Avery and Ryan their new slide that comes with a basketball hoop, soccer goal, and football throw. They were so excited to check it out!
