Christmas!

I didn't take many pictures this Christmas, it's hard to enjoy the moment AND capture the moment at the same time!

Here are the boys and their little tree in Jacob & Brody's room. As Christmas approached, we had to move the tree to the hall. I think Jacob was a little freaked out that some old strange guy might be sneaking around his room while he was sleeping if he left it in there!
Jacob played the Gingerbread Man in the Gingerbread Man play at school and he did SO WELL! We were very proud of him! Aaron put his experience of repairing fish nets to good use and stictched his costume together for me :) Grandma & Grandpa brought cousin Noah to enjoy the performance, too!

I love how Brody looks up to his big brother <3

Austin trying to hang with the big guys!

Some treats I prepared for the school:

We celebrated Christmas with Grandma, Grandpa & the Hilley's on Friday the 23rd, celebrated Christmas Eve with the Rogers' and Leaches' and were home alone for Christmas morning! Aaron's parents were gone the 14th-25th so we celebrated with them on the 30th, when we also celebrated Austin's 2nd birthday!

Jacob is excited! Their favorite gift was an air hockey table from Grandma and Grandpa and a kindle fire from Nonna and Grandpa. These boys must have been good this year ;)



Brody was so thrilled with every single thing he opened. He kept placing all his toys in a neat little pile before opening the next. It was so unexpected because organization is NOT this boys thing!

It was SUCH a fun year for Christmas, the boys are at such a perfect age for the magic of the season. The only thing that could have made it better was a little more snow for sledding and skiing! Where the heck is the snow this year?!

What a lovely Christmas. The boys are looking so big! I still picture Austin as a baby, but he's right there with the rest of them now.
