Opening presents

Merry Christmas! We had our first Christmas with my family on Tuesday (Dec 18). The kids were super excited to open their presents!

Ian spinning

Ian was spinning around Sarah's kitchen, and he wanted Stephen to take some pictures of him. They turned out well, and I think that they capture his personality better than still shots.

Swinging

Isabelle and Amelia are enjoying the swing set. Kathleen was out with them for a few minutes, but by the time I got my camera, she was back inside. We enjoyed the warmer weather, and the kids were able to play outside several days.

All dressed up!

Isabelle and Kathleen enjoyed getting dressed up for Christmas with my family. They were so cute posing for pictures! Caleb had to jump in on a few as well.

Chattanooga-Day 3-Rock City

Yesterday evening my mom, my brother, and I took the kids to Rock City, a local tourist attraction. They had the place decorated with lots of Christmas lights. It was a little chilly, but the kids kept moving and stayed warm enough. They enjoyed themselves very much.

We are in Chattanooga now. The kids did great traveling. They had some trouble sleeping last night, but everyone seems to be recovered now. They are having lots of fun playing with their cousins and all of their toys.
