Christmas!



What a great Christmas! This is what is happening today. We are sort of glad it wasn't a white Christmas. The boys (notice-all the boys) have had fun playing outside with new bikes, cars and scooters all day. We started early on Christmas Eve with a visit from Oma and Opa. They came down this year to visit us all over the holiday and is was so fun to have them we hope they do it every year!


Then we were off to celebrate at Grandma and Grandpa's house. We actually added a musical feature to our Christmas eve program. This is big for us, Tiff and I sang but we never played an instrument so I think it is pretty cool that our kids could do this.


Libby and Abby played too, it was great!Then Grandpa read the story from the Bible while the kids acted it out with puppets. It was a great night.


The next morning we started bright and early. This is Brittany in her fort made of presents.

Happy kids, just what was hoped for!

My favorite part of Christmas, when they sit around and play with each other and the new toys.


Then we went down to my sister's for dinner. This is Grandma caring for all the new dolls.


The fun continued this morning. I like the day after almost as much as Christmas Day, we lay around and play with the new loot and don't worry about having to get anywhere.


Dad put together the new green machine (A LOT of assembly was required). Brittany capturing the maiden voyage with her new camera in her cute new poncho.
