Christmas here and gone

Christmas went by really fast this year is seems like I didn't have much time to decorate. I love to decorate for Christmas one of my favorite holidays.

On December 20th we had Christmas at Willie's parents house because they spent it up in Colorado with Willie's grandparents. The kids had fun and got lots from Aunts and uncles and grandparents. Zeona was introduced to makeup (how fun). The kids also got a giant gumball machine from there Uncle. It was great fun.

We didn't do much this Christmas we stayed home and had a nice Christmas here. My parents came Christmas day and we had fun and did lots of visiting. We went shopping on Friday hopping to find sales but there wasn't much. The kids got lots of goodies from more Aunts and grandparents. I think the biggest hit was what William got from his Aunt Julie and Uncle Patrick, He-Man. The kids had never seen He-man till now but they love it they run around the house playing He-man.

Here are the kids on Christmas eve writing a note to Santa on a plate that we put cookies on. Santa used the dry erase marker and wrote them a note back very nice of him.

Each of the girls got a life size barbie from santa here is Syndl with hers which is a ballerina barbie and Zeona got a princess barbie. William got a robot but I never got a picture of him with his.

After Willie got home from work we opened gifts and Willie for the longest time has been asking for a Gitar Hero so he finally got one.

Here are the kids jumping on their new trampoline that Grandma and Grandpa help put up.
