Christmas Morning

Packing up Christmas was a pain but turned out just fine. This photo shows where we set up, Jamie and Jed, Jamie and Kirk, Eric and I, Mindi and Dave, and my Parents all had our Christmases in the big family room so it was quite the sight to see...presents everywhere!

EMMA really liked her music box that was filled with jewelry.


ISAAC loved the rock polisher, he even got a book all about rocks and minerals to go with it.


GABE was super excited about his Ipod! The boys both loved the Nerf dart tag they got to share.


Our little babies slept in so we didn't open their presents until later that morning, so the adults got to go next.

ERIC was thrilled and surprised by his IPhone. I was really happy about my new black skirt and black boots. (even though there are no photos to document it, this photo of the babies and me was all we ended up with.)
When Elijah and Meg finally woke up they were more interested in breakfast than presents so after they were fed they finally got down to business

ELIJAH Loved both his toys, the dump truck was a huge hit and the little radio kept him entertained the whole car trip home.


MEG didn't know quite what to think but she still had a good time!

Everyone who lived nearby had their Christmases at home then made there way to Grandmas when they finished up for more gifts from Grandma and Grandpa.

The kids had quite the stash this year!!

The boys also loved the marble maze from our other Grandma and Grandpa. They had a ton of fun putting it together and even more fun watching the marbles go through it.

What a great Christmas!!

PS--all these pics were taken in the PJ's Grandma and Granpa Gave them, Here are the PJ's from Eric and Me:

Christmas

So this is the first Christmas we spent at our own home by choice. Last Christmas our trip was unexpectedly cancelled because the day before we were supposed to leave I started having contractions and I was 7 months pregnant. But this year we decided that we had so much fun last year that we were ready for our own family traditions!


Christmas Eve PJ's...

Elijah has an earlier bedtime then the rest of the kids and gets pretty grumpy if he is up late so he opened his first and then went to bed. What a cute boy!

The older kids acted out the Christmas Story. They were really excited to open their one present that we give them on Christmas Eve...and still seem to forget that their Christmas Eve present is always PJ's. Emma was not a big robe fan this year...she did get one but since she didn't like it I took it back to Target.
