Last Friday Jacob had his Christmas program at school. As usual, he didn't sing much, but it was still cute to watch the kids.
Santa dropped off a gift for the kids at school too. They were so excited!
Saturday morning I baked Christmas cookies. The boys decorated a couple of sugar cookies special for Santa....I think Santa was on a sugar high on Christmas Eve from all the sprinkles!!!
Saturday night was the Kolb Christmas Party. The boys got to see Santa and had fun hitting the pinata that they brought for the kids.
Sunday we had Christmas with Mom, Dad, Zach and Caitlin.
Christmas Eve we went to the Children and Family service at church. Our pastor asked us to light the Christ Candle since we are the family with the youngest child. She didn't tell me until a few days before that I would also have to do a reading....it was really only a couple of sentences and no big deal, but I'm not a fan of public speaking!
After church Jim's parents and Mommom Mac came over to celebrate with us. We had appetizers and dessert. The boys got an air hockey/ping pong table!
Then it was time for gifts from Mommy and Daddy. We always get the boys Christmas jammies and a book. Jacob wanted to "read " Lucas's new book to him....it was so cute to listen to his version of the Christmas story. Many people in the book were shepherds!
After leaving cookies and milk for Santa it was time for bed. Eric had a hard time falling asleep because he was too excited for Santa to come!
Christmas morning the boys were up at 6:45am. We waited until a little after 7am to head out to the living room to open presents and were done by 7:30!
Then Grammy and Grandpa came over for breakfast and Grandpa helped put together the Ninja Turtle Lair. We headed to Mommom Kolb's for lunch and more celebrating!
We have been enjoying spending the time at home together, but are also ready to get back to our routine....and get my house back together!
