Christmas

Christmas was a lot of fun this year. We stayed home and my parents joined us for a few days. It was nice to be home and in our regular routine leading up to the holiday. I think it helped make it less stressful for all of us.

Kyler was counting down the days all week and was so excited about it. Caden didn't really know what was coming and didn't really care one way or the other. But we knew he had some fun toys waiting for him so we were excited for him.


The kids got to open one gift the night before. This was their matching Christmas jammies they got to wear that night.


Then the next morning when they got up we had a nice breakfast and then opened presents. We didn't tell the Kyler we were going to open presents until after we ate so we had a nice quiet breakfast before the chaos ensued.

Kyler got a couple different kinds of train tracks because he is still obsessed with trains and building creative railroads. Caden got several toys all involving balls because he is still obsessed with any size or kind of ball. It's looking like Kyler is going to be some kind of architect/engineer and Caden is going to be a ball player of some kind. ;)



Greg gave me an iPhone for Christmas and I am absolutely in love with it! Awesome gift from an awesome husband. :)







After Christmas dinner, we sang Happy Birthday to Jesus because he is the reason for the season, after all. We used a cupcake because we had enough goodies in the house and didn't want to make anything too big.


We had a wonderful Christmas and we are so truly blessed by our family and friends. Thank you all!
