Lyd's was super excited about her doll she had hoped for.

My boys and their lazer tag guns.

Abby loved her little puppy that barked and walked.


Can you tell Jarom's excited?

K. I love this picture. Kathryn was so excited about her baby. And Rach I'm so sorry, but its the only one of Kathryn I had. You have a nice bum. really.

Christmas Eve.

The last sight before we headed off to bed at 2:15 am. yawn!.

Happy little Matthew really liked the lizard on his Pjs

Super Man Kael. Super Cute Little Man.

Happy Little ladies all ready for bed. I didn't quite get all the kids in their pjs, but they did all have pjs.

Cookies

So we didn't end up doing hardly any baking this year, except for some ginger syrup snaps. Because it was all we got done, be gave each of the kids a bit of dough to play and create something with. After handling it for quite some time they all got together and decided to make a cookie nativity. It was super cute before we cooked it, but ended up looking like melted people after the baking. pretty funny, all the kids had a good laugh before they devoured their great creations.

after they melted the wise men ended up looking like the were bowing to Baby Jesus. Oh the three figures on the right are sheep and a donkey. the two to the right are the wise men. We didn't get to the Shepard's.

Tree Trip!

K. I know the order of these pictures is all mixed up, but here they are non the less. We take up so much room you can't even see the tree, but we know its there.

All decorated and beautiful, and by far the biggest tree we've ever had. it took up almost a quarter of our living room. ha, ridiculous, but fun.

Kind of a funny shape, but it smelled sooo good. Now its Christmas!.

Playing while dad cut down the tree.

The mountains are always beautiful, no matter what the season.

Kathryn and I made this wee little snow man, he was pretty cute, and Kathryn was pretty pleased with her work.

Today Abby was not so sure of the snow, it took us quite a while and a lot of convincing before she would put her hands down.

All the kids were really excited except Abby, never super excited to be buckled up. All and all it was a really fun and successful day.
