Christmas Parties!

Rolling right along through the month of December, we had several parties to celebrate baby Jesus!

We'll start with Miller's preschool party.  The class was pretty small that day due to lots of sickness, but we still had a fun time with his school friends!  Miller was happy as long as there were cupcakes.
 Making reindeer food
 Miller's "manger", as he calls every nativity he sees.
A few flying animals and wise men.  And poor baby Jesus looks a little cramped under everyone.

That night we went to Papa Frank and Nana's house for a party with Margaret's family.  Late afternoon/night is always a little tricky with Jacob so I only managed to get these two pictures...

One Wednesday night at our church, Miller's class had a birthday party for Jesus complete with balloons, party hats, cupcakes, sparklers outside, a visit from Mary, and a game of pin the tail on the donkey.  It was so sweet to hear all of those little voices singing "Happy Birthday" to Jesus.  Thanks for planning such a fun party, Jackie and Jean Ann!

Last but not least, we had the annual Christmas Eve brunch at Margaret's house.
We attempted the annual stair picture multiple times, but never got one with everyone seen and looking at the camera.  I'll take one for the team and post the best one of everyone else :)
 
 
Miller checking out the precious railroad quilt that Aunt Dot made for him and Jacob.  He loves it and has already just about worn it out!  Thanks Aunt Dot for such a thoughtful, memorable gift!

Thanks for all of the pictures, Donna!

That just about catches us up!  Coming soon... Christmas morning!
