Christmas 2013

We spent Christmas at my parent's house. The whole family was there! It was a lot of fun to spend so much time with everyone. We had fun watching Cordin and Doran play.

Christmas Eve, we opened presents from each other and the babies opened Christmas pajamas. Doran gave Cordin Gymboree bubbles, which are the coolest indoor bubbles ever. If you have little ones, you should buy them.


Doran and Cordin were frequently the center of attention. Can you tell which feet are mine?

As kids, my family had a tradition (or rule, which Matt ALWAYS broke) that we couldn't leave the stairs until Mom and Dad woke up. We still sit on the stairs and wait for Mom and Dad. This is our little family on the stairs. So lovely looking in the mornings. And the picture to the right is our view of the Christmas tree from the stairs.

I tried to take a few pictures of Doran in front of the Christmas tree, but all those "pins" I read about how to take a picture of your kid in front of the Christmas tree didn't work.





Opening presents! Doran was interested half of the time. He really liked a present Cordin got, it had buttons and made sounds. He, of course, loved the paper, boxes, and bows.



And we ate lots of good food. Every kid took a night being in charge of dinner. Doran loves food!

And we played fun games!

It was a great Christmas with family!

Then we hurried home and I did the biggest wedding of my career! I had mastitis during the whole thing and Doran had a reaction to the chicken pox shots. It was a long weekend, but the wedding turned out beautiful! You can see pictures here:
