Elle is my little sunshine. She has the dramatic gene and when she wears her emotion on her sleeve so when she really loves something one knows!!

Christmas Day and the day after Christmas when we head to Rockford are our favorite. Elle was so hungry when we got to Stockholm inn for breakfast she ate a whole bowl of whipped cream.

Christmas night we open gifts from with my family and Hans got so many transformers he was thrilled.

Christmas Day we had a house full of family and it was such a wonderful day. Hans loved having all of his cousins that are his age to play with.

Christmas morning we opened gifts and Elle got her first Star Wars shirt which she had to put on right away.

Christmas Eve we spent the day with Great Grandma and Grandma getting ready for Christmas Day.

We let Hans open a few gifts early because he was so good when I cut his hair.

We spent the night at Great Grandma's and Hans and Elle opened their gifts from Uncle Erik and Auntie Kim. Elle likes to ride the horse and put her dolls on it so it gets double use.

Elle did not like Santa so much at Christmas with Great Grandma's house!

We started off the Christmas season attending Brent and Jodie's wedding in Galena. We had such a wonderful time staying there.
