Christmas

We had a great Christmas at home in Fruita. A few days before Christmas, we went caroling with a group of friends. Kayla loved running up to doors and surprising people with a treat and a song.

Kayla's school party included more caroling at a local bank and then back to the classroom for a visit from Santa. Kayla and Chloe clutched on to one another in fear when Santa arrived. They are both terrified of him.







We spent Christmas eve at home reading the Christmas story, eating a special dinner, and baking sugar cookies for Santa. Chloe was liking the frosting!






Christmas morining we woke up to a room full of presnets.Some favorites included anything horse-y for Chloe and anything crafty for Kayla, as well as goldfish (we started with 5, but are down to 2) and a Sponge Bob video game. Andy liked his new jacket. Aunt Gina made some dress up clothes for the girls that were also a hit. (Why Chloe won't wear shirts with dress up skirts is the big question. She is topless most of the time around the house.) We went to Christmas dinner at the Gibb's new house. The food was excellent as was the company. We were only able to stay a short while as Chloe was not feeling well. It turned out that she had an ear infection and strep throat.
