| All set up to decorate Christmas cookies, Lucas licks
some frosting off the beater... |
 |
| |
| ... and Abbie gets the frosting spoon. |
 |
| |
| Despite evidence to the contrary, some sprinkles actually
did end up on the sugar cookies. |
 |
| |
| Abbie discovers that she doesn't need a chicken nugget
to get the ketchup to her mouth. |
 |
| |
| Lucas has fun learning how to paint with sponges... |
 |
| |
| ... and so does Abbie! |
 |
| |
| Lucas and Ashley decorated cookies on a playdate, while
Abbie enjoyed the spoils of the event. |
 |
| |
| Lucas digs into his stocking on Christmas morning. |
 |
| |
| Abbie plays with one of the toys Santa left in her stocking. |
 |
| |
| Lorinda and Abbie inspect a "Goodnight Gorilla" book
& stuffed animal. |
 |
| |
| "Awesome!!!" |
 |
| |
| Lucas helps Daddy tear into a package. |
 |
| |
| Daddy looks on while Abbie makes friends with the Poky
Little Puppy and the Shy Little Kitten. |
 |
| |
| Abbie still needs a little help opening her presents. |
 |
| |
| The pirate ship from Aunt Teresa and Uncle Sonny was
a big hit. |
 |
| |
| After lunch, Deb and Abbie share some laughs. |
 |
| |
| Abbie admires the new train set that she and Lucas got
for Christmas. |
 |
| |
| "Choo choo." |
 |
| |
| Tired from playing with all her new toys, Abbie relaxes
with her blankie. |
 |
| |
| Abbie rides a police car at the Maple Grove Community
Center. |
 |
| |
| Abbie seems a little aprehensive about the slide. |
 |
| |
| Lucas pauses to rest while climbing through the Maple
Maze at the community center. |
 |
| |
| Lucas is ready to go as we neared the big slide at the
top of the maze. |
