On Fri., Dec. 14th we enjoyed a Christmas dinner with the Vogel & Kress sides at Grandpa Mark & Grandma Dawn's house. After family pictures we got to open up presents - our first, official Christmas! We were blessed with family (*we missed you Uncle Todd) and had a blast not only tearing into everything but playing with my cousins, aunts & uncles afterwards. Here's my most favorite present that I've taken everywhere with me and even park under my bed - my excavator! Can you tell from the picture how big the smile is on my face!
Hudson got a lot of fun presents too and loved inspecting everything. Here he's checking out the wheels and would giggle every time they turned around!
Here's us playing with Cousin's Caleb & Levi - they were teaching me how to load & unload the excavator to the dump truck.
Here's Mom with some of her brothers / our uncles Derek, Adam and Keith:
On Sat., Dec. 15th we had fun just playing around the house before we got ready for Cousin Calvin's wedding. Here's us men "horsing" around!
On Sun., Dec. 16th I think everyone was wore out and Hudson & I had long naps on the way home! The big news of the day was Hudson got another tooth - his first of his first molars! A little rough coming in, especially at night, but how exciting to get more chompers.
Today, Dad picked up Hudson so Mom and I had a date night. We went out to eat at our local Mexican restaurant and then went to ECFE for a night of holiday fun. We made gingerbread men or women, made a gingerbread ornament and even made a gingerbread house. Here's me with my masterpieces!
Here's me & my Mommy.
We had a lot of fun and it was nice to see some of our ECFE friends & family. Hope everyone has a very Happy Holidays! XOXO, Hayden & Hudson
