Family parties and Christmas Eve and Christmas Day!

This is at the Gerritsen/James Christmas party.  Amy, Ben's sister, flew in that night from Michigan.  We haven't seen them for about a year and they had a baby, Emmy, which the boys loved to meet.

The kids did the Nativity.  It was cute.  We didn't have a baby Jesus though.

Opening presents from the grandparents.  Isaac got a puzzle.  He loves puzzles and does really well with them!

Jeremy got one of the Harry Potter's.  We have all of them except this one.

This is Christmas Eve.  The boys got to open their Christmas pj's

We wanted to see how the boys measured up to each other

The many cute faces of Isaac!

Cookies and milk for Santa & carrots for the reindeers

All wrapped up and ready for the boys!
