Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas season full of getting together with friends and family!  Thank you everyone who hosted parties and put it all together.  What a wonderful time of year!

Christmas Eve we drove around and looked at Christmas lights.

Then when we got home we had a quick dinner and were lucky enough for BJ and Kendra to come over with their boys.  (Kyler and BJ were gone when we were taking all the pictures, so sorry you won't get to see either of them.)

But here are the other three!

Our whole family got to open up a pair of jammies (made by me)

And then we got a family picture with all our matching jammies.  :)  Pretty silly, but I loved it.

Kendra and I...

When we took this picture Kendra said, "O my back!"  Guess I'm not as light as she thought I was!  Haha!

Ryan and Jason.  What cute kids!

After all those good times we put all the kids to bed and then...

CHRISTMAS MORNING!!!
We let the kids wake up on their own this year.  (None of that 5am stuff for us this year.)  So we got to sleep in until nearly 8:30!!  Awesome way to start Christmas.  :)

Jas was super excited this year, it was certainly fun!

Tyler enjoyed his stocking stuff the very most.  Especially the bananas and the juice!

 Ba-das enjoyed opening all of his presents, and even helping Tyler with most of his.

Daddy even got some... ;)

Little Lyle opening one of his gifts.

 He's just so stinkin' cute.

 And so sweet, he gave us all bunches of hugs.

The big gift to the boys was this cool bouncy house.  They loved it...
ALL
DAY
LONG

 This was Jas waiting (so excitedly) to get on for the first time.

 I have been joking with Bryce that he was going to get me an iPad for Christmas (knowing that it is ridiculously expensive so I wasn't really going to get it).  But he surprised me Christmas morning with a KINDLE FIRE!!!!!  Pretty much the Amazon version of the iPad.

This is my face when I saw what it was.
A Kindle Fire?

 Really?

 What a fun day!
