Christmas Eve with the Johnson

Christmas Eve at church.
I must say that dressing up my little girl for Christmas was a lot of fun. She was a cutie!One more shot on a family picture.Brady and Matt got a hold of my camera...Brady was excited to get a new Brewers tshirt.Cheese! Alex got a sweet dump truck from Aunt Lisa and Uncle Patrick.Both of the boys got new Cars scooters from grandma and grandpa. They were a big hit!Brady was excited to get a new Hotwheels garage from Lisa, Patrick and Matt.Trying out that new scooter...in the house!Anna got a really neat walker/activity center from grandma and grandpa.Lovin' the boxes and wrapping paper.Alex's scooter too a little while to put together, but grandpa got him up and running.All tired out from all the Christmas fun.

Christmas at Home

Santa was here!
Awaiting the children's awakening...Brady started his day eating carrots...like the reindeer.He was SO excited to get downstairs to see if Santa had come.Alex was a serious little guy Christmas morning. Teething is just no fun.One happy boy!Merry 1st Christmas to my little peanut!Not sure how she got a hold of Alex's peanut butter cups, but it's still a good picture.Playing in the presents.Christmas morning with my kiddosSanta brought Brady a Hotwheels Wall Track. He was very excited!Santa brought Alex an arcade style basket ball game. Also a big hit!New Curious George books always make Alex happy.The boys are really into Angry Birds right now. I was excited to find toddler size sweat shirts for the boys. Santa brought Anna her very first doll!Brady picked out a new basketball to give Alex and as you can see, he loved it.I guess hugging a gift means he likes his new remote control car.Alex got an Angry Birds bean toss game.Anna got lots of new clothes. A good thing seeing as she will be moving up sizes again soon.Brady got an Angry Birds game as well. He gets to build his own towers and then use a slingshot to knock the birds down. Right up his alley.Tea anyone? Buying little girl toys is so much fun!Santa also brought the much anticipated...Shu Todoroki and Max Schnell! Brady was trilled!Brady got Anna her first purse. Who knew it was tasty too!All dressed up and ready to head out for Johnson Christmas.Anna always has lots to say. Pretty sure I have a picture of me when I was little with this same expression. :)We polished off Christmas night by sitting around the table and singing Happy Birthday to Jesus. It was a great way to finish off a great day with our children.
