The 15 Days of Christmas

We enjoyed an extended Christmas/New Year's/ Matt's birthday celebration this year, beginning with the Family Christmas Eve service with Nana & Pop and our dear friends the Pollans. Brad joined us for a brief time and we had a great Christmas eve and morning.

"The children were nestled, all snug in their beds..."

George asked Santa (in his head of course, wouldn't talk to the real guy) for drums and was so happy to see his new drum set!! Best story of the day was Abigail setting off the glass break sensor of the house alarm by testing out the cymbals....skip the coffee because that woke us all up and sent us running!!! Abigail was soooo excited to see her new Barbie dollhouse (complete with a new Ballerina Barbie from her cousin Kirby). They totally "get" Christmas and giving/receiving presents this year, which made it so fun for Matt and I.



We had a traditional Jankowski Christmas breakfast of holiday bread french toast before opening the other presents, playing with the new toys (reading their newest libraries of books, having hippy-hop races, and eating M&Ms), and then going to Nana & Pop's new house to put up their new blinds.









I have to split this into two posts as the spacing is messing up...to be continued...
