Christmas Eve 2012

 Just as every other year, Christmas has seemed to sneak up on us quicker than expected! Life has been busy and there are times that "over the top" just isn't possible for us and we have decided that's ok! 
 Yep she's adorable!
  This year the kitchen wasn't flooded with 10 different kinds of Christmas cookies and 5 different kinds of breads...
 But it was full of gingerbread women created by the beautiful ladies pictured above!  Each one uniquely hand designed for the big man himself!  
 We spent the evening relaxed and stress free, simple decorations and simple fun with memories to last a lifetime.
 This Christmas Eve the twins are a little more in tune to the whole Santa deal!  Let me tell you, they have been on their best behavior and as we came around the corner tonight we found Aspen and Brooke set up and bunked on the coffee table ready to sleep by the lights of the tree!
Anticipation and excitement filled the house tonight!  Each girl proud of the special cookie she had made and each girl convinced they couldn't sleep even if they tried...
 Before we knew it, silence filled the house.  A moment that John and I have found is perfect to sit and just listen.... to nothing! :)  4 amazing little girls, 4 girls who could and do talk 24/7, 4 girls that are amazing and smart, 4 girls that are just too much for words some days, 4 girls that bring absolute Joy into our lives... and 4 girls that I would't trade for the world!
