December 2011: Part 2 of 3

CHRISTMAS!

I love the traditions of Christmas, being with family, and all that comes along with Christmas!



The annual Wade Family Christmas Eve Eve party. Sad to say this was not the most enjoyable party I have ever been to. Clara was just beyond crying, more like screaming most of the time. She was so tired, but wouldn't sleep. She was just overwhelmed with all of the noise and the people. Chad and I took turns spending our time in the dark basement trying to calm her. Definitely not enjoyable! I am glad the girls had fun and were able to enjoy it.



Of course we couldn't miss the Burton Dance Around the Christmas Tree!



Christmas Eve night...letters, cookies, and milk for Santa (notice the cute plate and milk jug that Grandma Hurd gave us especially for this tradition), throwing reindeer food, Christmas pjs, and a picture with their stockings. Clara was sleeping (thankfully) and missed the fun.



Christmas morning! Hannah got exactly what she wanted (Wuggle Pets) and Grace loved what she got (Leap Frog ABC fridge magnet game).


This was a very stressful and fun Christmas. It is definitely one we won't forget.

Clara's crying was harder on the parents than the rest of us. We LOVED having you there. And she looks so cute in her Christmas Pajamas. Could that cute little baby really "stress out" two adults!!
