Christmas Day at Home...

Just a couple pictures...

 

 

More to come!

A little more Christmas....

I just love their different facial expressions....

 

 

Where's Jace?

 

Connor's all settled in!

 

This scooter from Uncle Carl and Aunt Jena has been a definite hit--as long as we have let him keep it in the house!  It works really well on the wood floor, we have just enough room for him to drive it around.

 

Connor enjoyed just hanging out!

 

We (Jed and I) made this garden stone with Connor's footprint and Jace's hand and footprint....by the time we got a footprint off Connor we didn't want to attempt the handprint...but it turned out really good!

 

We should have saved this one for last...once he opened this combine from Uncle Jay and Aunt Morgan all he wanted was for someone to open up his combine! And in the picture above--he got a truck to go with it from Grandma and Grandpa!

 

See?  Finally had to give in and just get it out of the box.

 

Annual family photos:  With Grandma Janie and Grandpa Jerry

 

The whole gang!

 

Family photo!

 

With Uncle Jay and Aunt Morgan

 

With Uncle Carl and Aunt Jena

 

The whole gang again--in almost matching coats!  Jed and I got ski-coats for Christmas, and everyone else got a carhartt coat!  Woohoo!

Johnson Christmas

Looks like Aunt Morgan is about to put Connor to sleep...

 

This hat was a gift to Jace from Uncle Jay and Aunt Morgan....sure does look good on Grandpa J!

 

 

Great-Grandma Erma and Great-Grandpa George with their great-grandkids: Mark Johnson (son of Brian and Allie), about 7 months I think, Connor (2 1/2 months in this picture) and Jace (3 1/2 years).

 

The whole family.

Back row: Jena and Carl Tharman, Janie and Jerry Johnson, Brenda Johnson, Brian, Allie, and Mark Johnson, Jed and Angela Johnson.

Front row: George and Erma Johnson, holding Connor, Jay and Morgan Johnson, and Jace.

 

*This picture of Carl is actually from the Turpin Christmas...

Christmas Eve...

Well, a little randomness first.  To be fair, these photos were also on Christmas Eve:

Jace and I made cookies for Santa...

 

 

We had to document Connor in her bassinet one more time.  She was big enough for her crib...so upstairs she went!  The first night was rough, but she has settled down after that.  She is like Jace in that some nights it is hard to get her to go to sleep, we seem to put her down only to have her wake up several times, but once she sleeps, she sleeps. :)

 

I love the expression on both the kids' faces in this one, but especially Connor...

 

And now, for the real "Christmas Eve" photos....

 

The cousins all gathered round!

 

Add in grandparents and you have a regular circus!

 

Colton always likes to hold Connor...

 

The Luedke family of 5!

 

Johnson family of 4!

 

Aww.....look at those two cuties!

 

After pictures, it was time for jammies and comfy clothes!

 

Oh, and then there was this little excitement.

 

They are ENGAGED!  WOOHOO!!

 

And now that they are engaged they sit at opposite ends of the couch...

 

Texting each other?

 

Look at Kyler in this picture....her pants were so long I guess they had to be rolled up!

 

But she sure is cute!

 

Jace wouldn't leave his robe on long enough for a good picture.

 

I'm not sure what they are listening to or watching here...

 

Happy happy happy kiddos!
