But we quickly got covered in craft supplies and made a big mess- so we switching to decorating cookies-
Ella really liked the red frosting.
On Christmas eve we headed over to my moms- Before presents we had a great dinner and took a cousin picture. For some reason Ella clapped every time a flash went off :)
And then it was time to open the mountain of presents..
Ella got a bunch of cool stuff- like a Barbie big wheel, a gift card to a music class for kids- but her favorite gift of all was an Elmo doll. He holds a pizza and sings about it- and then the pizza sings- and Ella is in love. She doesn't hug many of her toys- but she will gladly hug this one.
After all the sugar and excitement - there was wrestling. I'm pretty sure the boys won.
Christmas morning at home was really fun- it was the first one that Ella could really participate in.
Santa brought her some good stuff too! She got a little riding toy for in the house- a microphone- bath crayons- and a magnadoodle.
Joe got an xbox- he has been in this position for the last 3 days straight.
I got a bunch of cool Chiropractic books and medical stuff- and a waffle iron with some Bisquick- Ella and I have had more waffles then the average person should have in the last few days.
Oh- and Joe got me a snuggie- its pink for supporting breast cancer- so- I guess that makes it ok? Well the cat loves it- and so does Ella.
Its pretty much like wearing a tent- Really if your snuggie is snug- you are in serious trouble. 
We spent Christmas dinner with Joe's family in Knowelsville. Ella and Nathan got a few extra Christmas presents.
Ella got a plate set from Nathan and a crying doll from grandma- The best part about all the Christmas craziness is that Ella has slept in the last 4 days! Like till almost 8am. We are still ridiculously tired - but 8 am...merry Christmas to me :)
