Christmas cheer...

 The girls' angel costume concoctions - I was loving the ornament earrings hanging off the tinsel tiaras and the toilet paper necklaces:)
 Sverre's parents went to Tennessee for Christmas this year so we had an early Christmas with them which was so, so fun - Sverre's mom sets the best tables, I always love seeing them -it's always so fun and festive at their house for Christmas
 Thought that everyone should see up Marty's nose.  very clean.  good job.
 LOVE these houses at Christmastime - love them  - we all saw Arthurs Christmas - and AAAplus ( that's a triple A, yes) Christmas movie
 This was the best looking and best acting Santa EVER.  He was awesome and yes, that's a real beardie
 zoo lights with the Petry's - love them

 this tree was dang cool -
 so my sister and family decided pretty last minute to drive to Denver from MINNESOTA, yes st. Paul folks, and surprise my kids for Christmas - They started caroling on the front porch and my kids answered the door and could not believe it.  it was so. much. fun.  We had such a great Christmas together - lazing around, eating chocolate covered almonds, sledding (yes we got dumped on here right before Christmas) and letting the house go to pot.
 Christmas Eve dinner....
Brooke's diet coke toast.  we had to do a special one for her since she chose to not be part of the sparkling cider one
Dan the guitar man
 
 Christmas morning - Lauren is sporting some sweet Grinch girl pig tails
the Christmas Day Mess, one of my favorite things of all time- I love stomping through wrapping paper, stepping on stocking toys, eating chocolate all day long and sporting my sweet Christmas pj pants that I wear all year long, but I feel totally legit on this one day
