Merry Christmas

We are a little late, but I guess that I still need to post some pictures from christmas. We had a really good time this year. The kids are at a fun age where they were able to really enjoy things this year. On Christmas eve my family does a progressive dinner at each of the siblings homes. It was fun but next year we need to start a little bit earlier so that we don't have to keep the kids up so late. My parent's house was the last stop and they had jammies for all of the kids. It was fun for the kids to get into their new pjs. On christmas morning we had a little breakfast picnic in my room for the kids before they went downstairs to find their presants. We wanted them to be totally ready for the task of opening their stuff. Ashten was so excited she wouldn't hardly eat anything. Santa brought them their much awaited jeep and it was the hit. They drove it around all day and actually haven't quit driving it since. Treyson needs a little bit more practice before he can drive without assistance. We had a really good time and the kids are already asking when santa is going to come again. Posted by Picasa

It sounds like you guys have some fun traditions. I need to start some of my own next year. I love the jeep! Chandler got a little four wheeler that he loves as well. How come we were never that spoiled as kids? Your kids have such beautiful skin by the way!

I'm so happy they loved the jeep! And the Santa hats too! They look so cute in their jammies on Christmas morning.

Are you referring to the "reproduction" post? Crazy! But exciting. And the parents house, Yeah, i've been there, pretty sure good things didn't happen there, ewh gross!

PS. I was just thinking I need to plan a trip to SG. I haven't been in awhile, and we need to hang out. Maybe sometime in Feb.

Love the jeep. What a good idea to have a little breakfast picnic before you go in to open presents.
