Christmas 2009

Since we returned home from Hawaii on Christmas day, we celebrated Christmas on the 26th. It was so great! It was so nice to have something to look forward to when we got home. On Christmas night (our Christmas Eve) the kids opened one gift and, of course, it was jammies! They were all so excited about their new pajamias and were even more eager to leave out the cookies and milk and go to bed so Santa could come. Brock was sure that he was going to stay awake and spy on Santa. But after all the traveling they were all out as soon as their heads hit the pillows.

 

This is the loot after Santa had come. What a haul!

 

And boy was Santa tuckered out!



Anxiously waiting on the stairs for Grandma and Grandpa to come so they can see what Santa brought. They were so excited, even Daxton and MaKelle were getting into the excitement (once they got their sippy's)!



Daxton got all sorts of Elmo toys. He was in heaven. He loved his Elmo trike and didn't get off it forever! He also got this bowling set that he loves to play with! I love this age when everything is so neat to them! He was even into unwrapping the presents!

 

MaKelle got a doll house, a tea set, a barbie, a tutu, and all sorts of new hair accessories. Can you tell she's the only girl, and somewhat spoiled! She loves it though and anything girlie she knows is hers! She wanted to help everyone unwrap their presents!

 

Corbin got a dinosaur set, a candy maker (easy bake oven) cuz he "LOVES" candy! He also got a Superman punching bag and lots of guns! This kid loves toys and he is so easy to please! I think he was more into Christmas than anyone else. And of course he and Brock got a Wii! Corbin loves to box and bowl - he is a die hard!

 

Brock got a new Hot Wheels set, games, a Star Wars blanket, a gun, new snow pants, and of course the Wii. I think he was more excited about the Wii than anyone else! He is growing up so fast and is starting to want all the big and expensive toys now. He is so fun to watch though!

 

It was such a great Christmas! The kids got all sorts of toys! Lots of clothes and books from Nana and Opa, and everything in between!

 

The next day we went over to Grandma and Grandpa's after church to open the presents they got for the kids. WOW! They sure made a haul there too. All sorts of hunting sets for the boys, a construction set for Dax, and all the doll stuff MaKelle could ever want! Can you say spoiled!

 

This is what we gave Grandma! She loved it! We also made one for Nana and Opa and for our house! They turned out so nice and I loved them!

 

Merry Christmas and Happy new Year!
