Christmas Memories

Thank you hugs all around
The Toy Story Landfill to go with all his new figures.

"This is just what I wanted!"

A new doll and a armoire for all her doll clothes and shoes.


We had a great Christmas weekend spent with lots of family! Friday night was spent with Ryan's extended family. We were sad that Grandma Elli could not be there, but she recently had hip replacement surgery and was still in the hospital recovering. This was the first Christmas in a long time that we were able to spend Christmas weekend with both Ryan's family and my family. That was an added blessing to us and the kids. We had a busy, fun-filled weekend. We hope you were able to have a joy-filled Christmas as well!

This pic pretty much sums up how Luke & Jaren felt about their gifts...a Nintendo DS!

The Buzz Lightyear gun he wanted to go with his costume.

Grandpa Wayne reading the Christmas story to the kids.

Luke got a new remote-control helicopter from us. He's having a blast with it...as is Ryan.:)

Reagan has been asking for an Easy bake oven for months. She was super-excited and has already whipped up some cupcakes for us.

A new doodle bear for Lauren.

Drew received most of the Heroes and Villains from the Toy Story 3 movie.

New bedding for their big kid beds!

Ryan and I aren't supposed to get each other gifts. I made this little picture of the kids and gave him some pistachios though. He totally surprised me with a new Cricut (a super fun craft tool for me to use). I think I'll have to do better next year!

Toy Story bedding (do you see a theme with Drew!)

The kids all got new hats from Grandpa Mike and Grandma Renee (we think they're all super cute...except for maybe the Cyclone one).:)
