Christmas 2010

Christmas morning was great and the kids woke up earlier than last year ( about 7:00am). I was awake already too. I think I am more excited for Christmas than my children though. I remember waking my parents up at 5 am and Dad always told us, at 7: I'll get out of bed but of course we got him moving earlier. Picture of the tree and all the kid's gifts from "Santa" and Mom and Dad.

The kids so excited to get moving on opening up their gifts. They are really getting along a lot better.


Carlos and all his gifts from "Santa" and Mom and Dad. He hit the mother load.


Carson and his gifts. All this kid wanted was games and games and more games. Of course new soccer cleats are always a must too.


Michaela was so excited to get her new clothes, and tons of shoes. She was quite easy to shop for this year. The boys were very hard to buy for, items were only sold online.


At my mom's where we went around 9:00 to open up the gifts Grandma and grandpa and all the aunts and uncles had given us all. We had a blast and it was great to be home this year and enjoy the two year olds, Joss and Ada. How excited they are for gifts and more gifts.


Carlos showing a gift he received. The kids loved what they got and are even sporting some of their gifts from mom and Texas family.


Michaela opening up a gift and Jody in the back ground. She is pregnant with baby #2 and looks amazing.

Carson and Joss getting into their stockings. One of our favorite gifts are always in the stockings, lotion, gum, pencils, and toothbrushes.

The day before Christmas, Carson and Carlos built gingerbread houses and did a very great job. Carson was quite the builder. He had the magic touch and helped Loni build one that same day.
Christmas was great this year. We were so blessed to have almost everyone here. Rick was in the Phillipeans and Steve stayed in Washington and celebrated Christmas with his girlfriend. We sure love her and miss them all.

Has this post really been on here since December 20th? I have been getting on here kind of often and until today nothing new had been there since Carlos' Thanksgiving thing. Oh well, my computer must be really slow. This is another cute post. the kids did have a great Christmas- lots of black and white... really cute when they are all in their white tee shirts and black and white jammie bottoms. Love, Grandma
