Christmas 2010

We had an awesome Christmas break. We packed up the car (literally to the top) and headed north. We stopped in Weatherford for the night and then got to Kansas on Christmas Eve. We celebrated Christmas with Logan's family. The boys had so much fun being all together and playing.

Mimi got the boys all matching pj's. We tried several times to get all them in a picture.....not easy when they are all under the age of 4!!!
How is this for a picture??
I'm not sure if this is happy or sad.....
Mimi had sugar cookies all baked and ready for the boys to decorate to leave for Santa. Weston just had one small problem.....he kept eating ALL the icing off of it and didn't want to leave it for Santa :)

Kai didn't approve of Weston eating Santa's cookies! I love that boy and his expressions....they are priceless!!!
Mimi had a basket of little presents for the boys to open every day. Kai and Weston opened almost all of them the day we got there :) They just couldn't seem to wait!!! They got fun little cars and of course candy!

Here's 2 little buddies making some music together.....
Do you think Santa came or what???

This was the favorite of Santa's toys.....a rollercoaster. Good thing for me and Mallory is that it STAYED at Mimi and Pawpaw's house :)
Kai's turn....
Weston's turn....
Eli's turn....
And yes, even Caleb's turn....
Santa brought Weston some new Thomas trains to replace the "melted" trains. Santa had wrapped them all up individually so he was really excited opening all of them.
Caleb was much more interested in the wrapping paper and ribbon of course :)

Of course Weston had to have his morning coffee on Christmas with Mimi.....he wouldn't have it any other way....oh, and he drinks it black!!!
On Christmas Day, Judy's side of the family came over. Aunt Janet found a letter that Logan had written Luke long ago......think when he was 9 or so. She read it....pretty funny!!! The best part was that he wrote in cursive and even drew pictures on it.

This is Luke and Jordan's daughter, Kinley. She's the ONLY girl and so cute!!! Do you think she likes her new stuff for her kitchen???

Mamu & Papa with their great-grandkids!!! Does it look like they are having fun???
The day after Christmas, Barry's side of the family came over for some more fun! It was quite a chore trying to get MY kids to sit still for a kid picture.



On Wednesday, we left Kansas (sad) and went to Weatherford to celebrate Christmas with my family. The boys got to play with the girls a lot! We rode the golf carts a lot and got to see the choo choo train and feed the ducks too.


Weston got to open baby Jesus and put him in the manager this year. And actually.....no limbs were broken in the process!!!
My mom made Weston a train blanket. He LOVES it!

Weston also got a Thomas tent that he loves. The girls got twin American dolls that they were so excited about. They both squealed when they opened the box. So cute!!!
The next day we all loaded up and bundled up and headed over to the Fort Worth Zoo and rode the "choo choo" train. It was freezing but of course a hit for the kids....especially Weston. They had a great time. We went to Chickfila afterwards and then got to stop by Ashley's apartment and see where she lives. Her and my Aunt Diane came over that night for pizza and we all played games for New Year's Eve. It was a fun night together.

We were gone a long time from home but we had a blast being with our family. We love living in Boerne but being with our family sure makes us miss them even more. We are so thankful to the Lord for the awesome families we are both blessed to be a part of. We definitely were "spoiled" and given way too much at Christmas. Thank you....Thank you...Thank you for a really fun Christmas! We love you all so much!
