Life with the Bauers: Christmas

We had so much fun celebrating Christmas with our families. We went to see my mom's family in Tulsa, then we went to the lake to spend some time with my family and Nana Great. Then back to Norman where we went to Norman Community's Christmas Eve service and then had our family Christmas. Our Christmas tradition is usually Hideaway pizza, mattress in the living room, watch Love Actually and The Holiday, and sleep in the living room. This year since we did it on Christmas Eve, we had to substitute for Marco's pizza, because Hideaway Pizza was closed. We love this tradition. We also realize that soon we will need to change our movie choices when Anniston is old enough to join us all night, but that's ok by us. Then Christmas morning, we opened presents and Jake's family came to spend the day with us. We went to see a movie and had an assortment of yummy appetizers. Our Christmas break was so fun. I just love the holidays, getting some set aside time to celebrate Jesus' birth with family and friends. Love it.

We also took Anniston to see Santa. I think the pic is pretty hilarious. She looks neither terrified nor happy...just pretty unimpressed with the whole thing.
