Christmas 2011






Christmas always seems to pass in a blur. We spent CHristmas Eve with Jonathan's family. THe kids were so excited to open presents. They got a WII and lot's of clothes. Jonathan and Lilly have become game experts. Just Dance, Golf, and WipeOut are their favorites.

Christmas night we hurried home so Santa could visit. Lilly had asked for a jumprope, talking purple diary, and hula-hoop. She got all except the jumprope because Santa knows she already had about 5. She was a little disappointed over that fact. Jackson started the season with drums on his wish list. I told him Santa wouldn't bring drums because they were just too loud, he revised his list to a blue flashlight, blue pen, and pocket holder for his tools. He didn't get the pen because he doesn't quite understand that pens are for paper. He did get lot's of tools and we travel everywhere the holder on his belt. He really is the "redneck" of the family. He calls himself the "working man." The kids big gift was a trampoline and this was WONDERFUL. The weather was perfect and for a solid week they spent their days outside jumping.

Off to Gran's where Santa came and there were lot's more tools for Jackson and crafts for Lilly. We really enjoyed the day with our families and had lot's of fun PLAYING! I also spent the week just CLEANING! Lilly's room alone produced 3 bags of TRASH, mostly paper. She does LOVE to spend her time writing and being crafty.

Christmas day night we had a birthday party for Jesus where Lilly made the cupcakes.

We then enjoyed a nice week at home as a family. Jonathan and I were both home for the week and we didn't even get mad at each other among all that family time! :)

**Heidi was in charge of Jackson's pictures Christmas morning so I don't have those on my computer. He is loved and we do take pictures of him!**
