Christmas Eve was spent with the Bishop family- spending the morning opening presents, the late afternoon going to a christmas eve church service, and then opening up stockings after the service and singing a few songs.
We celebrated Christmas with the Farr family on the night before Christmas Eve. We got to see Ben & Billie, Kevin, my little nephew Dakota, Grandma Farley, and the Gildehause family again. Its always fun watching a little kiddo experience their first christmas, and since Dakota was born in the spring, he was big enough to actually (kind of) open his present from us. I think he likes boxes more than toys, but that's pretty typical =)
We had our christmas with the Neier family a few days before christmas. It was a Teri's house and with that many kids opening their presents so excitedly, it was over before I knew it had started. The kids had so much fun afterward playing with their new toys and Grandpa Dennis got down on the floor and got in on the action, as well.
By the time I pulled out my camera, the girls were done decorating the tree... but the boys kept right on at it. I tried to take some video but none of it turned out well. We always enjoy decorating our tree and the past two years have been especially fun since we got to cut the tree down ourselves- first!
For christmas- my brother- sister- and our families got together to get mom and dad a gift of pictures of the family. My friends at Nickels photography took our pics and heres a few of my favorites!
EVERYTHING is belated. LOL I have yet to even post about Christmas. SO tonight I will start organizing and get ready to get this show back on the road - per my grandmothers request! =)
I am a proud wife and mother of four busy but adorable little monkeys.
My oldest is 10, then I have a 7 year old and twin 4 year olds that are constantly on the move. I love spending time with my family and HATE house work. I always have the intention of doing neat creative activities with the kids but never quite seem to get them all in one place to do them. I guess that's just the stage of life we are in at this moment.
I enjoy blogging about all of the craziness of everyday life and documenting the funny comments my kids say or trouble that they seem to constantly find themselves in.
On the journey....
