Finished Product!
Christmas Eve 2008
Lainey got this sled on Christmas Eve. Lainey decided to put Cooper in it and spin him around. He LOVED it!
Brielle played 'Jingle Bells' on her violin for our Christmas Eve program.
We had some Christmas stories. Lainey helped by holding a picture. Notice the costumes Brielle and Lainey have on. They preformed a dance, 'Jingle Bell Rock' that they made up all by themselves. They did GREAT!
New PJ's
Cooper liked his new PJ's too!

One Christmas tradition we have is going to my parent's house on Christmas morning for a delicious breakfast. This is Cooper at my parent's house having fun in the toy that Grandma and Grandpa gave him!
Brielle and Lainey got these fun bean-bags from my parents too. Brielle's is High School Musical and Lainey's is Hannah Montana.
Jazz Fans. They all got Jazz jersey's for Christmas.!
Family pic at my grandparents house!

We hope you all had a fantastic Christmas. Ours was great and was made even more special for the fact that we found out that we get to finalize Cooper's adoption on January 5th!! We are so excited. We are planning on having him sealed to us on January 31st. It will be an awesome day! We'll keep you posted.
