And Babies Make...5

This was a very exciting Christmas this year, because the kids got what I call "big gifts"!  We celebrated with my Mom & Dad on two seperate nights and boy did they make out like bandits :)  They were so excited and this year, the boys were starting to understand it a little more!  Santa ate all his cookes! OH MY GOSH!!!! BIKES! SANTA BROUGHT BIKES!!! Loving his backpack :o) iPod Touch!!!!  What was Santa thinking this year?! Gummy bears to Kaila from the boys :o) These boys HAD to try the candy out!   Colored skinny jeans are her favorite!!    Daddy listened and got me the necklace I had wanted a while back!!   JELLY BEANS!!! Where's Moms gift?! Can you find it?    I did!! Love them...thanks K!   Hmmm...a motorcycle???  Someones learning how to ride a motorcycle!!!! (Only learn, won't be buying one any time soon!) ...

I dont' know what it is about white lights and Christmas, but I find them so peaceful.  I stayed up late so many nights this Christmas, looking at these lights...My house has never felt so calm!  It very well cold have been the fact that it was after 11pm/12am and everyone was asleep, but still it was so calm! We decorated the tree late this year, but for the first time I left everything where they put it :)  They were so proud and just soo cute decorating! We're ready for Christmas!! Such cute kids :o)  

Getting ready for Christmas is one of my favorite times of the year!  My sister and her boyfriend stopped by and helped with the cookies and everyone had so much fun!! We tried something new this year and it was a hit! Pretzels with a Rolo candy on them, baked then pressed with a pecan...yummy!! Masterminding :o) Took a little break to wrestle with the family...why are boys so crazy?! And then it was on to the decorating!  This was their favorite part, as you can see this little man eating it...   Hmm...decorate my face too? Why not?! And then the girls so quietly decorating theirs :o)   Voila!  The final product!!
