Phone Pictures from Christmas!

It's been awhile since I've downloaded pictures from my phone so just came across some more Christmas gems!  Enjoy :)

 

A pre church selfie on Christmas Eve! 

 

This was Christmas Eve Morning.  Ben and I starting off the holidays right by going to Yoga Sculpt!

 

Church!  Both kiddos did pretty good!

 

Both kids really enjoyed the Childrens Sermon.  I was very impressed with Tyler for actually staying for the whole serman!

 

After the Children's Sermon was finished tyler decided that he didn't want to come back and sit with us.  He went up on the stage with Pastor Peter and did a little dance in his snoopy sweater.  He had the entire congregation laughing until I could run up and get him off of the stage!

 

Tyler started getting a little to antsy about 45 minutes into the service so I took him out to walk around.  He was REALLY upset that I wouldn't let him back in right away!

The dress Grandma Jane bought Chelsea for Christmas!

oops, pictures are once again, out of order!  Playing card games after the kiddos went to bed!

My Christmas present from Ben.  The sold out Jimmy Page by Jimmy page picture autobiography!  Needless to say, I was a happy girl! 

 

 

 

 

Fisher Family Christmas!

Grandma and Grandpa Fisher came to visit us for a couple days the weekend after Christmas.  As always, the visit was way too short but we cherish any quality time we get with them.  The kiddos were so excited to have Grandma Jane and Papa Bear in our house along with Uncle Steve.  Could life get any better?!

 

 

Snuggle time!

 

Papa Bear making sure Sydney was in the picture

 

Steve made an appearance!

 

One more posed shot!

 

Hanging out

 

I really wish I remembered what was so funny!

 

Puzzle time!

 

How great of an uncle is Steve?!  Chelsea wouldn't go to sleep until she had her Sydney doll.  Steve went upstairs to find her Sydney ASAP :)

 

Ben always loves catching me in the kitchen while prepping meals.  no matter how grubby I look :)

 

Getting ready to glaze the Christmas Ham

Jane and Ben after prepping the ham for grilling.  That's right, I said grilling.  If you haven't tasted a grilled ham, I HIGHLY recommend!

 

YUM!

 

True MN men!

Molly's stocking as our Christmas Tree topper.  Molly passed away this past September.  I'm planning on writing a blog about Molly but am not quite ready yet.  

 

Presents!

 

We never buy ornaments because Barry and Jane always give us personalized ornaments each year.  These ornaments are so precious to us and mean so much more than random store bough ornaments.

 

Barbie and the Secret Door Barbie!  Both Kiddos LOVE the movie and LOVE this Barbie.  

 

Tyler, like usual, making a beeline for my diffuser

 

A very pretty princess dress!  Chelsea insisted on wearing it to school immediately!

Grandma Sandvigs cookies!

 

Chelsea was a little under the weather for most of the day, but she got REALLY sick all of a sudden during the present opening.   After I took her upstairs I realized her fever had spiked to 103 and her tummy really hurt.  She spiked really high fevers off and on for the next 24 hours with lots of attention and care her sickness passed pretty quickly.  

 

Tyler is obsessed with Trains!  this was a jackpot gift for Mr. Tyler... an electronic ride along Train!

 

Grandma putting a cool cloth on Chelsea's head to keep her temp low...

 

My precious baby girl

 

More train time!

 

YUM!

 

Chelseas temp went down in time for dinner so she could join us!

 

Play time!

 

 Chelsea's fever spiking and starting to feel sick again. She sought comfort with Uncle Steve.  I ended up laying in bed with her and changing her cool rag on her head for a few hours this night.  I may have missed out on fun late night card playing but it was definitely worth it.
