Christmas


The kids acted out Luke 2 on Christmas Eve, while Grandpa read it.

Maggie's quilt that I made her!
Me with my new Paula Dean pots!!! I was soooo excited!!
The 3 kids all slept in David's room, so Santa could come and bring presents to them!
Maggie with her Doll house
David has been asking to get Hi-Ho Cherryo for the kids for a while now and kept talking about how much fun it it, so I went ahead and got it for him!:)
David's Grandma knows how David has to have really big bowls for his cereal, so she got him some and they are AWESOME!!
David surprised me with a new fridge!!!
Little David was so cute. He wou1ld go up to everyone that gave him a present and give them a huge hug for the first few presents!
Christmas morning. It was packed in our living room!

We had a great Christmas!! It was so nice having the Torgersons here. Made Christmas that much more special! We had a full house Christmas morning. Trish and Gabby spent the night Christmas Eve and then we had our little family, Sherrie, Dave, Austin, Giselle, Kevin and our newest addition to the family, Biscuit!! It was great having so much family here. Christmas Eve we had a ton of appetizers for dinner, read Luke 2, while the kids acted it out, opened one present each and read "Twas the Night Before Christmas." We got a lot packed into one night. Then Christmas morning we woke up at about 6:00 a.m. and got our stockings and admired Biscuit. We waited until Gabby's Dad, Nick, got to our house to open presents and then off we went! It was a lot of unwrapping! David surprised me with a beautiful new refrigerator. I was so surprised and sooooo happy!! I have been wanting a new one since we moved into this house. It is soo nice. It's a side by side and everything I wanted~I also got a new knife set, coat, and perfume, just to name a few things. It was such a great Christmas!! The kids are enjoying all there great new toys from Santa, especially Biscuit!! Hope everyone had as great a holiday as I did and a Happy New Year!!

Biscuit!!!






We finally got a doggy for Christmas from Santa! He is the cutest thing EVER!!!! He is a Shiz Tzu about 7 weeks old. We are in love with him. He is doing really well with going potty on the pads and has gone potty outside a couple of times. He loves to play and snuggle. He has a teeny tiny whimper and has barked maybe 2 times. He loves his little bed and likes hiding under our coffee table.
I will be posting pictures of everything else in a few days, but I wanted everyone to see how amazingly cute this puppy is!:)

It's Beginning to look a Lot Like Christmas!

Maggie with her ornaments. This year she picked out a pig! Pretty funny!


David was very proud of the tree and his decorations!

We also decided to do a tree for the kids play room! They loved decorating it with all the "pretty" decorations!
David guiding Maggie on how to correctly decorate the tree!!
The finished trees!!

David with all of his ornaments. My favorite is the Otis dog that he picked out one year. I'm just not quite sure if he even likes dogs...:)

We had a lot of fun decorating this year for Christmas! The kids were very involved and loved putting their own special ornaments up! David even put up decorations and lights up outside this year and it looks great! We are finally getting enough decorations after 6 years of marriage! I am so excited about Christmas this year. The kids are both at such a fun age and are sooo excited for Santa to come and visit them!
