Christmas

Well another year went by really fast and Christmas is over. The kids couldn't wait for it to come and it was over in a flash. We had a late start to getting ready for it because of the move, but we made it 

and it was a lot of fun to watch the kids. 

First our annual pj picture. 

My favorite thing is the socks. I think I get way to much for them, but I loved them growing up and get really excited for them each year. 

 This year each kid had their own paper. No names on the gifts just colors, They had to open their sock to find a scrap of their paper and that's how they knew which ones were theirs. I thought it was a lot of fun, and a way for the boys to be excited still. 

Kids say they woke up at 3 or 4 but we didn't get up till 6. It was still too early, but better than 4. They were opened in what seemed like a flash. 

 Vegas was Brad's Christmas and he got me a snowboard. I can't wait to go again and hopefully this year teach the boys too. 

And it was a huge mess all day. Beck got a tablet (which we told him if he breaks this one he is paying for it) and some pops (vinal action figures). Cam and Jacks got a Wii U together. Camden got a game for it and some ninja stars (for display only). Emery got an Easy Bake Oven and tablet also. Jacks also got a lot of Paw Patrol figures and this big dinosaur that makes noise and moves. He is still fun to get toys for because he really gets into playing with them. 

By the afternoon our house was a still a mess and pretty much everyone was on an electronic. 

We had a snack day and made appetizer type food to each. the kids loved it and thought it was fun to have different things that we don't normally eat. 

 Fun fact about Emery, she loves brown sugar. Whenever we cook with it she likes to eat it, and if we'd let her she'd eat it by the handful. 

I'm sure this next year will go just as fast, we can't seem to figure a way to make it slow down.
