Christmas!!

I need to make sure I post about Christmas today, because tomorrow is Sariahs birthday! Merry Christmas! We had a great day. Things were a little different because Christmas has been on a Sunday. I have decided I like it best on Sunday. The kids got to open a couple of presents last night on Christmas Eve. They opened their gifts from each other, and then they got some really exciting Sunday clothes to wear to church. Here they are looking good before church on Christmas Sunday.



After we had church, we came home and started opening presents. This year had kind of a lego theme.



Hayden asked for a light saber. Thats all. Just a light saber. He ended up with 3 of them in different sizes. This one is the best because its large and it has a light.



CARS! Cars are awesome. Race tracks that have Lightening McQueen are the best.




There were also a few fairies.



And more legos. Pink legos.




Working on Legos takes a lot of concentration. I love her tounge. Not only is it sticking out, but its been out and rolled most of the afternoon. Sorry this picture is blurry, she kept moving to get more pieces.



Corrine wanted "art stuff" and a saw. Yep, a saw. She got loads of paper and tape. Now I know where to go to find paper and tape.



How many 10 year old girls asked for a saw for Christmas this year?




Jakob got more snap circuits. If you have not seen these, you need to check into them. They are pretty cool. This set is a robot. After Jakob got it built, he spent some time chasing the small dog around the house. She doesn't like the robot as much as Jakob does.







Playing with legos are so much fun. We have several bins of legos scattered all over the floor. Its like Santa barfed pink legos all over my carpet. We didn't get the pink ones for Hayden. Now he is "as big as Jakob".



Keith has wanted a tractor a while now. He looks at KSL almost EVERY DAY looking for one. Corrine decided to use her own money to buy her dad a tractor. What a kid. She was so excited for him to open it!




We MUST eat a lot on Christmas. We love ham and potatoes!



Some times you have to cram a lot of chocolate in your mouth as fast as you can. Mom lets you get away with it because its Christmas.



At the end of the day, the house is trashed. We have eaten a lot of candy. And, we are all tired. But, we MUST KEEP PLAYING. No matter how tired we are. After all, Christmas doesn't come for another 364 days.



MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
