Mason's First Christmas




We had a fantastic first Christmas with Mason. Everyone always says that Christmas is more fun when you have kids. I have to say I truly agree.

We made cookies for Santa. During the picture process Mason swiped the cookie dough of the tray as fast as he could. Therefore his first sweet was Christmas cookie dough.





After cookies we took a bath, read the night before Christmas & tucked Mason in for the night so Santa could come.

Then we played Santa
 
The next morning I woke up early & threw the monkey bread in the oven then we opened presents while it baked
We all thoroughly enjoyed & ate WAY too much of our Monkey Bread. I tried a new recipe this year from the Pioneer Woman, I highly recommend it!
After breakfast we enjoyed some coffee, played in the wrapping paper and just savored the morning together as a family. 




Once Mason went down for his nap I made a Christmas dinner. We wanted to start a tradition for having lunch together. However delicious the spread was at lunch, it was A LOT of work! So we have decided that our new traditional Christmas lunch will be a simple love of ours, potato soup.

To end our evening we went over to Aunt Amy's house & played on Addy & Lilah's new karaoke machine. It was the perfect day!
