We had a great Christmas this year! There are lots of pictures so I'll post them as a slide show.
We went down to Great Grandma's house on Christmas Eve with Grandpa and Grandma Stephenson and family. We had fun watching movies and playing with toys and of course, Grandma's stairs. We each opened one present Christmas Eve to find great jammies that Grandma made for us. Ervin and daddy match with green Cars pants and the girls matched in pink shirts and cute froggie pants. Then the kids went down to bed to wait for Santa while mommy and daddy had fun playing cards with Grandma Great and uncle David and uncle Kevin.
Christmas morning came and we found a lot of presents from Santa! He brought sleds and snowsuits with snow boots for the kids. He also brought them CAT imprinted construction hard hats and badges. Daddy was way excited that Santa got him the new Batman movie on Blu-ray. The kids got a remote controlled car and a karaoke machine from Grandpa and Grandma. Grandpa was kind enough to get us some rechargeable batteries and rechargers so we can keep up with the toys. :) Robert also got Ervin some crayons specially designed for little hands and he gave Lizzy some card games. Grandma also gave Ervin a baby doll who has matching Christmas jammies like Ervin and daddy. Mommy and daddy got a digital camera from Grandpa and Grandma and David gave daddy a print server and mommy a WD TV box. Thanks again everyone! We love our gifts!
Then we went home early to avoid the storm which didn't bother us too bad. We sat down to open more presents. Lizzy got a doctor's kit and proceeded to treat us all. She also got some wooden food to go with her kitchen set that she got last year. Ervin got a Fridge Farm which is an animal matching game that sticks to the fridge. He loves to play with the magnets already on the fridge so we thought this musical game would be perfect. He also got jipped on his other toy, a ball popper. It didn't work, so we're sending it back, and a new one is already on the way. Thanks Amazon!
Friday we went over the Grandpa Jay and Grandma Anderson's house to exchange gifts. Ervin got this great toy truck, some books, a game, and some warm jammies. Lizzy got some warm jammies and a game. Grandma also gave the kids a gift card to Gymboree and we're going this week to pick out some new clothes. Daddy got some new church clothes and a portable tool box carrier. Mommy got a Lionhouse cookbook and a gift certificate to the mall. Thanks Grandpa Jay, Grandma Anderson, and Aunt Lindsay!
Wow! A very full Christmas with family but it was very enjoyable! We're so lucky to have our families so close so we can spend time with them during this holiday season. Happy Holidays!
