Christmas Fun

Christmas is always so fun. We started out Christmas eve with dinner at my parents house. We always have pizza and wings. The kids get pajamas to open and we just have fun hanging out and playing. This year was the same but different with my mom being sick and on hospice. She fell and broke her hip the week of Christmas so we were so excited she was able to come home Christmas eve. My dad wanted to make sure we did everything as we always had so we as the kids made sure that was the case.The boys are always so excited for pictures.

Christmas morning is always exciting. This year we got to experience kids not being able to sleep because of excitement. We heard talking at 1:30am, then we heard more giggling at 3:00am . Then I got up at 4:00am to Caleb and Lance sitting in the loft talking. They explained that they could not sleep and were just waiting until they could wake the rest of us up. They were sent to bed and did end up falling asleep. John and I got up and got ready and then we had to wake the kids up at 7:15am.

They are ready to go down stairs.

Briauna wasn't sure what to think.

Jenna loved her gifts from Santa.

The boys were inspecting the Wii they got.

Garrett was quick to try out a game.

Now on to presents. They were so good and patients with the opening part.
Briauna needed a little help from Lance.

Jenna loved the robe.

The boys got more Lego stuff.

She was so cute in her new boots

We took the Wii to Grandma and Grandpa's house and all the kids had fun.

It is nice to live where they could play outside on Christmas morning.

Cousin Blake is so funny and plays with the little girls. He was showing Briauna dogs he found on the Internet. She loved it.

I love all you new posts, the kids are getting so big and cute! Kaylyn still talks about Garrett, so I don't think it will be a problem getting them to go on a date when they are 16 :) HOpe to see you soon
