the rest of christmas

We finished up the Christmas prep last Friday with cookies for Santa!  


Royal icing is something I'll never perfect, but the kids sure had fun!


Their cookies turned out great!


Dressed in our Sunday best for Christmas Eve morning.


We had dinner and opened presents at my mom's before we all headed to the Christmas Eve service at church.


Fascinated by the light!


We left cookies for Santa and headed to bed.


The scene on Christmas morning!


It didn't take Emmy long to start flipping on her new gymnastics bar.


Early morning game of foosball.


I'd say it was a great morning.


Our next stop was breakfast and presents at MeMa and PaPa's house.


We went to my mom's later in the day for stockings and ended up taking a Christmas intermission for a visit to KidMed.  Bryce hurt his finger playing basketball on Saturday and Jason told him he'd be fine.  It was still purple, swollen and sore on Monday and Jason't aunt told us it was broken.  We decided to take him in for an x-ray and luckily it was a clean break that can be fixed with a splint for 3 weeks.    
 

Bryce wasn't happy when the doctor said he had to miss PE and baseball for 3 weeks.


The kids spent the night with Chase and Taylor the day after Christmas so we went out for date night with our neighbors.  


We had a yummy dinner, stopped by a fun coffee shop, and then headed to a brewery for drinks and trivia.  


Of course the BelJackLocks won first place and a gift card to the brewery!


Emmy had been complaining of headaches so we made her an eye doctor appointment.  We went Thursday and luckily she checked out just fine!
