On our way to Grandma Pate's Christmas! DISCLAIMER: We were not actually driving while taking this pic. We believe in safety first ;)
Matthew and cousin Tristen taking a break from playing outside.
Grandma Pate has 12 bunnies! Olivia LOVED looking at every single one of them!
We spent Christmas Eve at "Papi's House" (my step dad house)
Papi loves taking lots of pictures! I swear we posed like 10 times for the same pic!
Matthew and Olivia scored with presents at Papi's house! Not only did they get tons of toys, they also went home with 80 dls cash! Grandparents ROCK!
"Twas' the Night before Christmas and all thru the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.."
Christmas morning at Aunt Jen's
Matthew got a scooter! He was a really NICE boy this past year!
We had so much fun this holiday season! As always, we are lucky enough to celebrate Christmas three times! The first Christmas celebration is at Steve's Grandma's house, usually the week before actual Christmas, to ensure people get to go. We have a potluck lunch and play games and get a white elephant gift. The second Christmas is with my mom and step-dad's family. In Mexico you celebrate Christmas Eve as Christmas, so we open presents at midnight and not on Christmas morning. This works great, because after midnight we head over to Steve's family's house to spend the night and celebrate Christmas once again in the morning! It's awesome! Especially for the kids! I loved hanging out with everyone and catching up! We miss our family and we really appreciate the happy times with them during vacation! Until next year!

"We believe in safety first" - you are so funny. I cannot get over how old Olivia looks. Your kiddos are definitely siblings! Great job with the "Winter Party" too. Ben's at a baptist Pre-K, so it was probably the last school "Christmas" party he'll be at. That's funny that Matthew was embarrassed to have you there. :) We miss you guys! Have a great new year!
