Our Christmas 2010

Santa came....we must have been good this year!

The boys racked up. Jackson got his Cranky the Crane from Thomas that he has been wanting. Along with everything else under the sun including a Dr Kit, Pillow Pet, Leap Frog Leapster, Thomas the Train Roundhouse, clothes, candy, Thomas trains, games - oh my the list goes on and on!

Matthew got his bells (this is what Jackson said he wanted) and much much more including books, Pillow Pet, cars, big metal Tonka Trucks, Webble Wobble Tree House, a sit and bounce turtle, musical maracas, a push cart.....and on and on!


I also had a great Christmas. I got a picture of The Last Supper I have been wanting, a big decorative clock, floating shelves, some cast iron cookwear, clothes - just to name a little bit!
My sweet husband also had our friend and semstress, Alicia, make me the darling Flight Suit Bag/Purse! I do adore it! It is from one of David's flight suits and it just means so much! Now he has to get me my own patches for it!

David also had a great Christmas getting that Blue Ray he has been wanting with some movies for it, tools galore, clothes, etc!

Here's Papa opening one of his gifts!

And for some reason I don't have a picture of Nana opening a gift, but here she is!

And Big Grandma!

The boys thought they were through and then we had one more surprise for them in the basement! Their very own Bounce House/Slide/Ball Pit! We can't wait to have friends over to play!



We hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and were able to spend time with loved ones reflecting on the the Birth of Jesus!
We are off to NC next to open more presents and have a late Christmas with my family!

Christmas Eve

I thought we should start a new tradtion this year for our boys. Since they get an ornament every year maybe they should open it on Christmas Eve and place it on the tree, so there you go....our new tradition!


Nana and Papa Jackson also sent gifts for us to open Christmas Eve....jammies all around!



Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

Fun with Papa, Nana and "Big" Gma

The nice thing about living just a few hrs from David's family is that they come to visit a lot! They made it out this Christmas to spend a few days with us...much more uneventful then last year! Thank Goodness!
The boys sure enjoyed having them all here!







Happy Birthday Jesus

This year Jesus got Aunt Flora's Pound Cake with Cream Cheese Icing! :)


Peek a Boo


I see you!

Sleepy Time

This is how Jackson goes to sleep at night - we read his story first and then he rereads it in the dark with his flashlight!
Llama Llama Red Pajama is the choice of the night!

In the dark!

And then this one THINKS he is ready for a big boy bed....umm Mamma says NO WAY!

The following 2 pics are at 8:40 am....they both woke up super early, causing lots of whining, crying and crankiness! Thankfully they both took 2 naps this day!

Mmmm Christmas Cookies

Yep you can call it lazy if you want...I call it SMART! I am sure I will do better next year, but for this year...... it was fun, not a lot of mess or clean-up, and Jackson still had the fun of decorating!

Wow I didn't ever notice how "used" my cookie stone looked!

And he's a decorating!

and some more....
Then he took a break to eat the icing straight from the bag! Yep he IS his Momma's Boy!
The ones I did.....
and Jackson's MINUS
the one he is eating!

Our Christmas Card 2010

We only ordered 50 cards this year...limiting it mainly to family! I wish I could afford to send them to everyone I cared about and knew, but I would be BROKE! So if you didn't get one I am sorry, but here it is for your viewing pleasure!! :)

MERRY CHRISTMAS from our family to yours!!
