christmas memories

here are few photos that are special to me from christmas so far
because they hold memories and tell a bit of our story.

this is nana and grandad watching their 
great grandchildren opening presents.

here is selah
(still wearing her antlers, as seen in the last post)
working on her christmas cards for her classmates.
she's wearing her new dinosaur sweater that she got for christmas from nan,
and yes, that is a tower of mini wheats in the background (big sale!).

 these next two are from the girls seasonal concert at school.
their school always puts on a fun show that included everyone.
both emery and selah were beaming up on stage singing their songs.
emery sang 'up on the house top...',
and selah's class sang 'frosty the snowman'.
 this is the moment when selah saw her daddy in the audience.

 here is emmy and selah checking out their goodie bags 
from another christmas party.
every year, my aunt and uncle have a party at their country club.
it's such a fun night to dress up and 
reconnect with family.
the food is always excellent and they even bring in a magician to entertain the kids.
it's a special night for both the adults and children.

lot's of great memories so far and more to come.
i wonder which of these moments will stick with the girls as they grow...

what do you remember most about christmas as a child?
