Merry Christmas!!

We had a wonderful Christmas! The kids woke up at their normal time about 7am. Not too bad considering Jared and I used to get up closer to 5 or 6am when we were kids! The kids were so excited to see that Santa had filled their stockings and brought gifts to the family.

The kids say the funniest things sometimes. On almost every present she opened, Allison would ask "These for me?" and then would get so excited when we said yes. Brandon had some cute sayings, too! Brandon said "I wished what I wanted!" when opening up a power ranger and a video game. Then, when he was wrapped up in a blanket with sharks on it he exclaimed "I'm in the sea!" The two older boys didn't have cute sayings but you could tell they were really happy. Once they opened their mp3 players (luckily we charged and loaded them the night before) all you got was a loud "What?" whenever you tried to talk to them!

Some of our gifts were: Guitar Hero with 2 guitars (family), princess dress-up clothes (guess who?), mp3 players (Jacob and Eric), Wii Lego Star Wars (Brandon) and a picture of Christ for our living room (Amanda and Jared) and a trip to Grand Bear Lodge (hotel with indoor water park). There were many others that we all enjoy.
