Brady's Bunch...: January 2007

Daycare Christmas Pagent

Every year Kyla's daycare puts on a Christmas program. Each child is assigned a role and they re-enact the birth of baby Jesus. Kyla was the star of the show... literally!

Kyla as the star of Bethlehem

The whole crew - Linda too!

Then the kids sang songs for us.

Santa Claus even came! Kyla would only get close enough to give him a high-five, but Colton didn't seem to mind.

Cookies!!

Kyla enjoyed making Christmas cookies this year. First at my mom's...

Then at Auntie Sara's. Her, Noah and Caden did such a good job decorating...

and eating!

Christmas: Day 1 Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas Eve with my Uncle Frank, Aunt Lana and my cousins down in New Prague. Aunt Lana always has a wonderful spread of food. Kyla couldn't seem to keep her little hands off of the cookie plate. She had a great time playing with her second cousins. Colton - well he didn't really know what was going on.

Christmas: Day 2

Merry Christmas!! We spent Christmas morning together in our P.J.'s. Kyla was so excited to see what Santa Claus had brought for her. She liked opening her presents but she loved playing in the wrapping paper!!! Later that day we had the family over. We had some wine, opened presents, had some more wine, waited for what seemed like eternity for the roast to get done, and oh yeah, had some pomegranate punch! Whew! Just before dinner there was a knock on the door. Uncle Kris, Auntie Justina, Judaya, and Will had driven up from Marshall for Christmas!! Grandpa and Grandma thought they couldn't come until the next day. SURPRISE!
