Christmas 2009, Part 3

Here we go with our last installment of our Christmas adventures!
Mark and I spent Christmas morning with our little boys and experienced the joy of Santa Claus coming for the first time! Kolbe was so excited when we came out to the fireplace to find several new gifts that weren't there the night before. I don't think he fully comprehends the process quite yet, but next year sure is going to be a blast! After Daddy made us a batch of yummy breakfast burritos, we headed over to Mark's mom's house for the rest of the day and night. We had so much fun hanging out with the Asmussen side of the family and just relaxing. Over the following week, we continued to spend lots of time with G-ma, Grandpa, as well as Uncle Brian and Aunt Cristi who came from San Francisco to visit. We wish they lived closer! (hint, hint)
As you can see, we had a wonderful Christmas filled with LOTS of fun, family, and (not pictured) FOOD! What a special season! Hope yours was just as spectacular!
Kolbe trimming the tree... he's so proud of his idea to hang the doorknob decorations on the tree...
Christmas morning...Kolbe playing with the awesome airport set that Santa picked up from Pinkie and Pa's house to bring to ours. (in other words, it was too hard to wrap so Santa "dropped it off" for Pinkie and Pa.)
And Reagan checking out his nesting blocks.
I think this one was on Christmas Eve after we went to mass (note, the matching Christmas get-up). Kolbe has figured out how to blow and catch bubbles and Reagan loves to watch.
Mark's cousin Krista spent Christmas day with us too. Here we are all squeezed on to the couch with Brian and Cristi.
Reagan playing with his cousin, Hayden. (Mark's cousin Melisa's baby) They are just two weeks apart and too cute together!
Kolbe and Reagan love taking baths at G-ma's house. She gives the best scrubbins'!
People say all the time that Kolbe could be my brother Pat's son. I'd like to argue that Reagan could be Brian's! Don't you agree???
Yummy jingle bells from Uncle Brian and Aunt Cristi!
