Trying to get a picture before we let them come downstairs to open presents!
Stockings!
Reese's peanut butter cups are his favorites!
She loved her new monogrammed umbrella!
Max got a black Kong toy which he seems to really like!
Ryan was SUPER excited that he got a 2nd green light saber so that now he can hook them together!
Ryan got a book for Scott called "Woof" about a dog-that he found a the book fair. Since the kids have been doing jobs and earning money around the house since we have been back they each bought their siblings a gift with their own money this year.
Max enjoying his new toy
More bows the merrier!
Scott can never have too many books about Star Wars!
Ashley was super excited about a rock set/book that I got her from a school book order form.
She bought minion ornaments for the boys for Christmas
Scott got Ashley a journal with a real lock on it
Scott's big present-Benny's spaceship, spaceship, spaceship-a rare little boy side seen in one who is growing up so quickly.
An Elsa castle that she was really happy about
an American girl binder
everyone with Greg and their favorite gifts-Ryan has his light saber laying in his lap-Ashley also got a doll that she has named Lucy
Aunt Ann sent us a package from Colorado-Ryan has built tons of his snap circuit experiments and loves this kit-very cool and highly recommended for boys!
Ashley is warm & cozy in a new hat, scarf, and gloves
no it's not a toaster
but was stuffed bunnies that are SO soft-they are named Fluffy and Bugs
Ryan got a Bionicle (I call Bionicles and hero factory guys ugly guys. The boys say they are not ugly and my response is that they are not pretty at all!)
Greg always likes to have breakfast food for breakfast so he had breakfast casserole and we enjoyed eating on our special Christmas dishes.
There was a LOT of lego building that went on Christmas day
Max also got a wrapping paper roll
which he tremendously enjoyed destroying!
We always have something special and sweet to celebrate Jesus' birthday for Christmas morning breakfast-this year the kids each had a cookie they had decorated at Grammy's house
Grammy gave Ryan in his stocking at her house a can of whackers (canned biscuits-we call them whackers because my mom said that you tore off the outer wrapper and whacked them on the counter) We accidentally left Ryan's can in Grammy's fridge but I told him he could have a can all to himself at home and NO ONE else was allowed to eat any of them.
Aunt Ann sent Scott some really cool science kits with fun experiments
more Lego building
Max looking like a train or a bus came through the kitchen and knocked him down!
Scott and Ryan also got some new Star Wars legos-it was a fun day relaxing at home!
