Christmas at Our House

We finally did Christmas at our house on the Monday eve after Christmas.  I thought I'd be bummed about the delay but it was actually just fine.  We don't really get a ton for each other and its the first year we really bought anything for Peter.
Here is our living room & tree before Christmas, before any of our gifts (for others and our family) had been opened.



We gave Lily some gifts so it would seem more "fair" to Peter. 
She'll start cereal soon so that was one of her gifts!  :)

She also got a new book... Peter is really reading it to her in this pic. 
He was saying "duck, walk, boots"- so sweet!

Peter got a piano.  Mike and my mom have these grand schemes of Mom giving us the piano from their house for Peter.  Have you seen how small our house is?  So this was my attempt to delay that... 

He is sooo affectionate lately and will give me lots of kisses!  I love it! 
I know it won't last forever so I've been getting lots while I can.

I got a pitch fork... hopefully for composting (tho I am not totally convinced that will happen in a neighborhood but I'm up for trying it). 
I also figure a pitchfork is just a good thing to have!  I'm excited about it!
I love Peter's smile in this pic.  They had gone out together to buy it.

one more pic of the adorable girl...


Thank you, Jesus, that you came to dwell among us and save us!
