Christmas Fun

Christmas is over (although we are still looking forward to a belated gathering in a few weeks), and now we are trying to find a place for all the stuff we brought home. The kids are really enjoying their toys, and the mom and dad are really "enjoying" the opening, assembling, and battery-ing going on.

While we clean up the mess that has overtaken our home, please enjoy some pictures from the last few days:







The girls had a "sleepover" with Lauren and Lindsey at Grandma Sharon's. The big girls were so nice to let the little girls do their hair (and color with them, and make crowns with them).









On Christmas Eve we tracked Santa on the internet. The kids got really excited when he got closer. They could hardly sit still for a picture before going to bed!












Beck's new friend, A.J., was a gift from Santa. Beck loves to chat with him. (I think its the wild hair they have in common.)
















All the kids were up early on Christmas morning. The girls just don't understand why Santa doesn't wrap every item in their stockings like Grandma Julie does. Hmmmmmm........ I'll have to ask him.





The girls caught garbage at Grandma Julie's to keep them entertained while others were opening gifts.

Beck gnawing on Rory's finger...i love it!

Soren and I are going to have a talk about Santa's lack of follow thru on present wrapping!

Yeah- I'm not sure what his deal is with that. Maybe he's just being environmentally friendly or something. You know, he's had the "hybrid" vehicle thing down for years! Hee hee!
