Christmas 2011



Christmas at the Larson House

Yep!  Santa came to visit the Larson kiddos! He brought logts of great stuff.  A dune racer for Travis and Reagan her very own IPod touch with camera and baby Jace got a Race track.  Fun!!!

The kids couldn't wait to come down the hall and see what Santa had brought them.

These kids were HAPPY with their new toys!

Even Jace loved his new toys from Santa!


Daddy explained how to juse the IPod and Reagan listen intently. 









What a great morning!

Jace loved his rubber duckies!









Travis was excited to get a few new movies including Cars 2.

These kiddos couldn't wait another minute....it was out to shoot those new bows!









At Nana's, the kids got to open their presents---Pajamas and a book from Nana and Papa!








































Christmas was so much fun this year.  A new baby, toys, family, good food, and fun....  It was all wonderful.  We are so grateful for this season, for what it truly stands for, and for all that we are blessed with.  We will try to keep the Christ of Christmas in our hearts all the year through.

Christmas Eve 2011

Loving Christmas Eve!
We had Christmas with our Cole family on Christmas Eve day again this year.  It just seems to work out nicely.  We eat, open presents, eat again, and just enjoy eachother's company.  We missed Granddad this year since he is still in Africa.  The kids Sciped him and he got to watch some of our chaos so hopefully he didn't feel like he missed out on much.


Grandma Mayrice and Tanya getting ready for the festivities.

Jace had a great time racing around the house in his walker chasing everyone.  It was his first Christmas Eve and he loved the Chaos!












Our littlest cutie!










The cousins love to hang out!  Aren't they just the cutest!




















The Larson cuties!  Gotta love those photogenic kids!

Cute pic, but can't figure out how to get it right side up! 
WE LOVE CHRISTMAS!










Jace loved crawling around, but didn't care too much about opening presents.  He did love eating the boxes and paper though!  He was thrilled with his Elephant and glow in the dark ball from Grandad.










Reagan had fun opeing all her goodies from Grandma.  One of her favorites was some new nail polish.











It was hard for Travis to be patient and wait his turn to open presents.  He was so excited and Kaela too!









Playing witht he wrapping was one of Jace's favorite parts of the day!


Jace loves presents, especially new cups!

Check out my new toys Mom!
After our fun filled day, it was off to Grandma Joy's and Papa Gene Roberts for our tradiational Christmas Eve Mexican dinner.  Yum!

Jace loved hanging out with his Aunt Amy!




Jace gives kisses!




Fun decor, Mexican food and Dump punch....Joy's specialties!






















Jace meets Santa for the first time!  AND he goes straight for the beard!  Too funny! 




















Loving Santa!

Our Christmas Eve just wouldn't be perfect without the kids acting out the Nativity.  Reagan was the Angel this year.  Beautiful isn't she?!











Check out our precious shepards!  Travis looks so handsome...and thrilled!








































Mom and Jace!











Check out that circle for the Left and Right Present game.  Fun!  The kids so love it!
