Christmas Eve with the Tepkers

Christmas 2007 the kids made cookie-cutter gingerbear cookies for Santa. In November 2008, Collin put in his request: "Santa really liked the cookies last year, Mom! We need to make gingerbread cookies again for him!" And so we did. (*And he+she loved them!)

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care ...

Our Chrismas King

Baby's First Christmas Eve ~ complete with a HUGE bruise on her forehead, caused when her brother Owen accidentally introduced the very stool featured in this picture to her cute little melon the day before. Oh, Brother! It was a rough Christmas for Kate. The next day, she played patty-cake with a fireplace and burned the tips of all the fingers on her right hand (thankfully she's also a smarty and kept them in icy water afterwards - probably because it felt good - and the burns healed in just over a week).Collin, who had nearly memorized The Night Before Christmas by Christmas Eve, read the classic to Owen (and their handmade sock puppets from G&G J) before they snuggled in for the magical night!
