Christmas Morning

Santa did come to our house this year and it was so much fun because Miles actually understood.  The night before we put cookies and milk out for Santa, carrots and water for the reindeer and we even sprinkled reindeer food with sparkles in our front yard.  Here's all the loot Santa brought.  For a month, Miller carried around a toy brochure with a picture of this dinosaur/car transformer thing.  Well, he got it!
 Here they are walking into the room to check everything out.  Miles wasn't so sure at first.
They were super excited.
 Here they are ready to check out what is in their stockings.
 After we played with all our fun new toys from Santa, we had cinnamon rolls for breakfast.  GraMary and Grandpa Max came up for the day and watched us open our presents to each other.  We gave Miller a Superman towel (among other things) that he loves. 

We had a great steak Christmas dinner that evening.  What a fabulous Christmas!  

Christmas Eve Service

We headed to the Christmas Eve service at church to celebrate the real reason of Christmas.

Here are the boys all dressed up before we left for church.  I just love these shirts I found on zulily.com.
The family before we headed inside.  Miles is still too young to go to big church so he went to the nursery.  Miller is finally at an age where he can be quiet.
 Miller loved the candle lighting.  Jud secretly snapped this picture of him holding his candle. I love how he's being so careful.
 God, thanks for sending your son to earth for us!

Argue Christmas

Once again, I apologize for being so behind on updating the blog.

We celebrated Christmas at my parents on Christmas Eve since we were all headed to Durango.  We headed over there early that morning.  Here are Miller and Miles ready to open gifts in front of the pretty tree.
 I love my sweet boys!
 The annual "kid" shot with our stockings.
 Of course the light up really loud guns were a huge hit.
 Miller sliding Evan under the tree to get the presents in the back corner.  It was really funny.
 Noni and Miles being silly.
 Miller got an original Big Wheel and LOVES it.  It is his new favorite outside toy.
 Miller and Miles in the bows.  My mom goes overboard and put gorgeous bows on every gift. Every year the boys take a picture in the bows after all the gifts have been opened.
Thanks Noni and JoJo for all the great presents and such a fun Christmas!
