It really does snow here

Katie is trying to make the biggest snowball ever!

Simon was showing me his snowball.

Leo always starts the snowball fights in out family.

I am the only one that made a snowman and I got to use my new snowman kit.

And church was canceled. But we had fun in the snow and I think we do miss it.... just a little.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Before they got to the rest of the presents!

After all the presents were opened it was time to dig into fun!

Simon exploring his new Rex (from Toy Story) flashlight.

Katie was trying to decide if that is what she wanted to do first.

Leo and Daddy digging into the new Nerf guns.

The boys watch on as Katie plays her new Wii game.

Hugh gives a pose as he makes his lunch.

Well there weren't as many cool adventures as last year to post about. But we sure did have fun! It was really nice to stay home and I am ready for that to be a tradition.

10:56pm

SANTA HAS BEEN HERE!!!

(However the bikes are not from him!)

I asked the kids if they wanted to leave Santa Milk or a Caprisun. There was then a disagreement about it. So we left both!!

Ok time for bed.

5:20pm

This was an easy picture! Simon at Piano, Katie and Leo at computer. Hugh is taking his parents back to their car.

3:30pm

Grandma Paula and Katie making Gingerbread house.

Hugh showing off his shooting game to Grandpa Horsey.

Simon begging for candy.

I forgot to bring out the camera when the kids opened their presents from G. Paula and G. Horsey. But if you look in the picture with Simon you can see Katies present at his feet. She got the GoGo dog and LOVES it!

In the picture with Hugh by the toys on the ground you can see Simon's present of a FurReal Husky and Leo's present of Race cars. They love the cars the most I think.

10:30am

I think this is the same thing Leo was doing last year....
He is playing Lego Star Wars!

And Katie is just an on looker. I can't have them play at the same time or all I hear is whining.

And Simon is doing doggy tricks for an orange!

Breakfast

Eating breakfast. i made muffins and they were all gone before I got the camera and I didn't get any!
Simon totally posed for this picture!

Simon saying "CHEESE!"

TOMORROW!!! (ish)

Ok I know tomorrow is not REALLY the big day. But for those of you that actually got on blogger last year you got to follow us through our Christmas Eve Day to see all the fun and exciting things we did before the big man came. Well i plan to do the same thing tomorrow as well. Just giving you a heads up. Sadly we do not have snow on the ground like last year. We decided to stay home this year and it just doesn't really snow here. So snowman making is out of the question. but I will try to come up with something for us. You might just see us sitting around doing nothing. Just kidding. My kids are ready for tomorrow.

And sometime in the next few days I will tell you about my recent doll news... stay tuned!
