Long Awaited Christmas Pictures

This morning when Alaina picked out her clothes for the day (which she does every day), she picked out her Christmas dress. I then realized that I never took pictures of the kids in their Christmas outfits. So, I got Leo's out, got them both dressed, and took their picture early this morning. I actually got a picture of them smiling the first picture I took! Here are the kids Christmas outfits. Thank you Grandpa and Grammy!!

Kylee has the same dress as Alaina. If you click on this link, it will take you to Laura and Josh's blog where they have a picture of her in it:

I was sitting at the comptuer and Leo came over and sat on the table next to me. Luckily, my camera was right next to me!


Oh! In case you were wondering, the chicken turned out fantastic. I added a little bit of brown mustard and soy sauce to the gravy and it made some of the best chicken gravy I have ever tasted. You should try it! I also put an onion soaked in lemon juice (because I didn't have a lemon to put in with the onion...) inside of the chicken along with parsley, sage, thyme, paprika, and garlic. I believe we are having pizza burgers tonight for an easy meal after last night.
