Christmas 2010

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

We had a wonderful Christmas and a near-perfect break from school and work.  Santa found our family....even Ziggy!  (And I'm seriously not sure he deserved any new toys to destroy).  But he sure was excited to get started.



Jacob got a "Transformers" race car set and a few other fun surprises....



Kyle got the game he was asking for.....Poke Park wii, which was a huge hit!  He has enjoyed it for many, many days.....


Dallin got the warm blanket he wanted and hasn't slept without it since Christmas.  He also got a bb gun and a few other cool toys.



Brandon begged and begged for a trumpet, even though he's never picked one up in his life.  I found a great deal online, so Brandon's dream came true.  This was from Mom and Dad.....Santa had nothing to do with it!  We get the credit for this one....I think it's been a little harder than he thought it would be, but he's enjoying it.  It's so fun to see him interested in all these instruments.....Brandon also got a new memory foam pad to go on his bed (which he loves) and a music book of hymns for the flute.  Exciting stuff.....



And Eric?  Well, he got a new guitar from us as well, which he knew he was getting.  It's a nice one too, and he was so excited.  He also got an electric razor and a new camera (so he doesn't have to borrow mine all the time)....the camera, not the razor.  :)



One other really exciting thing that happened, was that Jacob lost his first tooth on Christmas eve.  He got a visit from the Toothfairy and Santa all in one night!  Whew!  A busy night for all involved!

And here I am without my hair combed and no make-up......who gets ready on Christmas morning anyway? Not me!


One thing the whole family got was an air hockey table.  We LOVE it!  It has been so fun and I'm sure we'll enjoy it for many more years to come.   It also came with ping pong!






We had a great Christmas!  Happy New Year!
