Christmas 2013

Christmas this year was magical. It was so much fun being in California with the entire Bruce family. First time in three years we have all been together and all week long we played and laughed and ate and ate.

I bought this little German dress when I was in Study Abroad in Germany before we got married.  I have been patiently waiting for Jane to be old enough to wear it. She finally was tall enough and I knew Christmas Sunday would be the perfect debut :) She looked darling and it made the 7 years worth it.

 Christmas Eve... I can't remember why I took this picture... but this is Jane to a tee, so I posting it.

 Christmas was so much fun. Both kids were so excited and the best ages.

 Santa brought Lucas Star Wars toys and ships. Ever since Christmas morning Lucas still asks every morning if he can play. He loves them!

 Jane loved her Tangled castle and played with it all Christmas morning clapping after each time the horsie went down.

 I wrapped Lucas skateboard (one of two things he asked for!) in a box. When he opened it, he said I got a Box! And was so sweet and excited about it. Then when he opened it and saw his skateboard he was thrilled!!

 Jane being silly with her doggie purse...

 And the ninja costume... the other present Lucas asked for. When he opened it he said, "But it's not Halloween" and refused to even look at it. Once he opened all the ninja weapons he decided to put it on. He ran around for hours as a Ninja!

It was such a wonderful Christmas and I am so sad it is over!!
