After multiple attempts of blogging about Christmas I have finally been successful at uploading pictures! We were fortunate to spend another Christmas season at home and have family come to us. My parents spent an entire week hanging out with us and loving on the kids. It made for a great Christmas.
We went to one Holiday party up at the base Eric works at and the girls go to have lunch, make crafts, play games, and even visit with Santa. We didn't have the heart to tell the girls that Santa was Eric's boss a few years back!

Christmas Eve was amazing. Friends of ours had a Christmas party at their house and there was a surprise guest for the kids. Santa and Mrs Clause came bearing gifts. It was funny because Chloe and Etta were one of the last of the bunch to be called up and you could see how nervous they were the entire time sitting and waiting. They must have been worried about being on the naughty list!
Here are the girls with their presents. Etta got a sewing kit and Chloe got a earring holder and a new owl hair clip.
Christmas morning was wonderful. We were able to convince the girls to sleep in until 7:30am and have breakfast ready for the adults. Of course the kids have no interest in eating Christmas morning! The kids came running down the stairs to this sight. Needless to say they were so excited.

| Chloe spent a lot of Christmas break riding her bike and her new two wheeled scooter. |

| Etta is still learning how to use her new skates. There have been many falls. |
I can't believe it's 2014 already. Where did the past year go? I feel like time moves so much quicker now that the kids have gotten bigger. I can't believe it's been a month since Christmas and have enjoyed looking back already at all the pictures. Hope you enjoyed them too.
