Merry Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas break this year! I chose to post this on Christmas, but am actually writing it days after... Christmas Eve we went to the Children's Mass, which was adorable with the Christmas story being acted out and read by little ones from church. We went to dinner with my parents and my brother, and went home to bed to get ready for Santa in the morning. This is Blake's Christmas outfit for church -
and just to compare - here is Blake in her Christmas outfit for church last year!
On Christmas morning, we woke up at our normal time of 6:30, which isn't too bad for Christmas morning standards of being awakened by eager children! We'll see what happens next year! We opened our presents and played a little. Blake wasn't too interested in anything else besides the Cozy Coupe that Santa brought!
She kept saying "ca" over and over again. I think the gift is a winner!
We did manage to get the rest of the presents opened eventually.

After getting dressed, we went over to my parents house for breakfast and presents from Grandma and Poppa. GG Pebble and Bubba were there for the fun, too. (We enjoyed seeing Katie, Hector and Santiago earlier in the week, but they were in Houston for Santa to visit their house.) Blake's big gift was a tricycle!
We went home to relax for a little bit before Tim's parents and Juan came over. Grammy and Grandpa stayed for 4 days and enjoyed lots of quality time with Blake! We opened presents with them on Christmas afternoon, so we had a big day!
Blake loves her car so much, she even asked to eat her snack in it. So she ate a hot dog Sonic Drive-In style! ha ha.
Blake was showered with so many presents this year of books, clothes, toys, music CDs, a doll house, play kitchen and all kinds of goodies from the people that love her. She is a blessed little girl. I can't wait to have Easton join in our fun next year!
