Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas this year in Houston with Dugan's Family and we had a wonderful time. We had our immediate Family party Christmas Eve and the girls had so much fun hanging out with their Aunt and Uncle, Cousin Coleman, Mark, Melynda and Ash, Nanny and Papa and Meme and Grandaddy. Compared to my family in Germany, Christmas at MeMe and Grandaddy's house is loud and crazy but definitely a lot of fun and I am so happy the girls get to have so much family around. Something I never had growing up.
Of course they loved all the gifts they got! Lily's favorite are wooden Icrecream cones that she has played with every day and Emmi loves the Microwave she got for her Playkitchen. After a fun filled day, Emmi made sure to leave out a cookie and Milk for Santa and some lettuce for his reindeer.

Cookies and Milk for Santa!
Dieses Jahr haben wir Weihnachten mit Dugan's Familie in Houston verbracht und wir hatten alle viel Spass. An Heiligabend hatten wir unsere Familienfeier und die Kinder haben sich ueber alle Geschenke gefreut die sie bekommen haben. Im Gegensatz zu leise und besinnlichen Weihnachten wie ich sie von meiner Familie in Deutschland kenne geht es hier eher laut und froehlich zu, was ich inzwischen eigentlich auch ganz schoen finde. Vor dem Schlafengehen hat Emmi noch einen Keks und Milch fuer den Weihnachtsmann und Salat fuer seine Rentiere bereitgestellt...
