Then we heard the choir of angels after Gabriel announced the birth of Christ to the shepherds.
and then we walked to the stable to see baby Jesus. The kids were able to give him a gift (a donated food item). It was so sweet, and a really neat thing to experience!
Here is Alexis keeping warm in her daddy's arms. I think we will definitely make a tradition of this!
We have also been receiving a gift for the last eleven days by some sneaky people. On the first day, they brought a jar of pears to represent the partridge in the tree, and it has been going ever since. It has been so much fun. I really want to thank these kind people, but the notes say if we catch them, then they will take the gifts elsewhere..........and we can't have that! Anyways, I am saving all the papers, so that we can bless someone else next year! It has added extra excitement to this holiday season!
We also took the kids to the botanical garden. They have it decorated with tons of lights, they have hot chocolate and cookies, and the best part of all was that Prancer was even there for the kids to pet. How awesome is that!! 
And last, but most definitely not least.........Kylie's first dance recital!!!
I have always thought to myself that someday she was going to look beautiful with mascara on those super long eyelashes with her dad's gorgeous eye color. I didn't think I would see it this soon, but man was I right (and jealous too!heehee)
She did amazing! She has only taken about 5 classes, we couldn't have been more proud of her and how well she did. She really likes her teacher and dancing.Carson was also so excited to see her up on the stage. He liked all of the performances. He clapped so hard for everyone. What a little sweetheart!
Kylie and I got to remove our makeup together that night.....it was pretty funny!
