Grandpa and Grandma Mueller were able to spend some time with us after Christmas and Mari and Nadia (as well as Kyle and I) loved being with them. Mari loves to have her fingernails painted and so of course Grandma had to do it! Heaven forbid for Mommy to do anything for her while Grandma is around!
Mari is obsessed with Frosty the Snowman and she loves the one where he gets married to Crystal so over Christmas Kyle went out with the kids and made "Frosty" and "Crystal." They has a great time playing in the snow.
Once again three Christmas celebrations! It was exhausting and a blast all at the same time. Kyle the girls and I had our own little Christmas where we had a "fancy" dinner as Mari calls it, with candles (which is what made it "fancy"). Christmas Eve and Day were spent with the Nordlund clan. I do mean clan. 10 kids 8 and under....wow! The fact that we actually got all the kids to take a picture is a miracle! We spend New Year's Eve and Day with the Pevestorf's. That too was a little nutty, but we all missed Karla, Erik and Leah. We are just so thankful to be able to celebrate our Saviors birth!
I love that Nadia can fall asleep anywhere, so unlike her big sister who still hates sleeping. I guess she was really tired this day!
So these are the pictures that we went with for our Christmas card....so cute!
Here are just a few of the pictures that we took trying to get a good Christmas picture. I think it took us about 40 pictures and 2 days to get some!
Nap time can be pretty rough. I told Mari that she didn't need to nap, but she did need to take a rest and be quiet in her room. This is what I found about 15 minutes later!
Mari and Lili love to get together so we had to have a tea party. Water was everywhere! They had so much fun and I know that we'll be doing this again soon.
