Christmas Festivities

So, I know this is a little late to be posting but I still wanted to share some of the wonderful Christmas memories we made this holiday season:).
------------------------------------------
Emma listening to a Santa video I made on the internet. Classic!

Santa photos!
Emma decorating her little tree:). This Christmas season was so fun because Emma understood so much more of what was going on and really got in to all the festivities.

We went to visit the HUGE gingerbread houses in Seattle. They were incredible!


We got so inspired by the large gingerbread houses, we decided to make our own as a family. So much fun!
Snowflake Lane in Bellevue. I think this was Emma's favorite activity we did this Christmas season. She constantly talked about how she wanted to go again:).

Abbie wearing daddy's patrol hat
Emma's Preschool Christmas pageant. . .so entertaining!
Lucas over for a playdate
Kirsten hanging out with our girls! Emma has already taken on the role of being the boss:).
Our sweet little Abbie along for the ride wherever we decide to go
What a prim and proper little girl:)
