Christmas
















We had such a great Christmas this year! We spent Christmas day at home and just got to spend the whole day together as a family which was SO nice! The boys were so excited to get up and see what Santa brought. Bryce was a little sick with the flu and ended up sleeping most of the day, but he still had fun opening his presents and playing a little with his new toys. Santa brought the boys a GeoTrax train set (they LOVED it!). He brought Isaac some Castle Lego sets, Parker a Pokemon ball, Bryce a bath toy, Josh a RC helicopter, and Heather a cake decorating set (as well as some games for the family). Josh also got clothes, books, and a Ball of Whacks. Heather got a foot massage spa, the game Quiddler, and some fun ethnic foods. Isaac got a Pokemon ball & a Light Saber. Parker got a RC Lightning McQueen car and a Light Saber. Bryce got Clipos and some toy cars. They all got a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse to share! (that was probably Bryce's favorite.

Christmas night we had a fun Christmas Dinner. It's our tradition to "splurge" on seafood. We had some YUMMY beer-battered coconut shrimp, snow crab and artichokes.

The day after Christmas we went to Josh's parents' house to celebrate with them. We had a good dinner and exchanged gifts. We had a good time. We didn't make it to my parents' house until New Years Day because Josh ended up getting sick with that flu. But we had a good time when we went down. We exchanged gifts with them and had dinner. We got a chance to visit some other family members the following day which was nice. We got to visit Great Grandma Chappell, Great Grandmpa Bell-Tuft, and my sister Marcie & her family!

Here are some pictures from Christmas day (you'll notice that the boys changed their clothes & jammies a hundred times that day! LOL!):
