Almost Forgot

I can't believe I forgot to tell everyone. As you all know our sister is expecting her 1st baby. Well a few days before Christmas she called to tell us they are having.....A GIRL!!!!!!! We are so excited for them. They are going to love having a girl sooo much. OK not like we know:) But Jess is just so so good at all that girl stuff. And I just can't wait to be able to watch her walk around the house ALL DAY long practicing cheer, choir or whatever singing/dance thing she might be into.

We are just so excited!!!! 3 nieces!!! Lucky us. Now we get to shop for all that "pink" stuff. YIPEE!!!!

Christmas Morning

OK so its New Years Eve and I just realized I haven't posted any Christmas morning pictures. We had a wonderful Christmas. It was quite but very nice. We all stayed in our PJ's most the day since we had no where to go and nobody coming over. We watched movies and played all day long. Some friends of ours came over later that night and the boys flew their Helicopters.

The boys had a blast waking up to realized Santa had been here. It was funny because Noah almost forgot that Santa came. We had to remind him before we went down the hall. Of course Noah just ripped threw everything like an old pro. And I was very surprised how well Bryce caught on. He ripped the paper off and would sit their waiting for Dad to open the box. He was a bit traumatized by the end and did some crying. He would get so excited to play with what he opened but we would set it aside to give him another to open. After it was all done he was overwhelmed with all the new toys and didn't know which one to play with. So of course he walked from toy to toy crying. But hands down the best moment was when we opened Tickle Me Elmo. He was so excited for Elmo then he started rolling around laughing. Scared the crap outta him. He ran behind Ben screaming!!! But he soon warmed up to Elmo and loves him now.

Next year will be a lot different and we are looking forward to it. Who knows where we will be living but we do know that we are having a very special Grandma joining in on the fun:) And who knows maybe we will have another one on the way by then too!!!!

Twas the night before Christmas

So Noah was really excited to put out the Special Key from Grandma so Santa can come in the house and give him presents. It was soooo cute. You might not be able to hear the talking but he was telling us how he was putting it out for Santa.

Family Pictures

OK so some of you have seen these pictures and some have not. Our friend came over to take some pictures of us. We had a good time with it. Of course the boys were perfect little angles, smiled at the camera and did everything we asked of them. HAHAHAHAHAHA. OK that was a good one!!! We had an even better time seeing all our facial expressions.

Since its Christmas Eve you can guess that these are not making it onto a Christmas card this year. But I had every intention of doing that. We have lots to do tonight. Cookie making, decorating and get ready for Santa to come. We will be watching our Family Christmas Eve movie with popcorn. And reading a few Christmas books to the boys. We will end the night with a reminder of why we celebrate Christmas and what it means to us. We can't wait.

I'm sure we will be posting more pictures in the next few days. We love and miss everyone very much!!!

Merry Christmas to everyone!!!!
