Ahhh, Christmas is over!


I finally dug my computer out of the madness that my house has become.  Seriously, it looks like a toy factory exploded in here, and my trunk is still full!  We had such a nice holiday weekend celebrating with family.  Friday night we hosted my Dads side, Saturday we hosted my Moms side and Sunday we went over to my BIL Johnny's house.  We ate entirely too much food, shared lots of laughs, played lots of games and the kids made out like bandits as usual.  Let's see if I can remember some highlights..

Brady - a slide, new clothes and jammies, lots of books, a vacuum, bowling set, toy laptop, shape sorter, new ride on car, tools, personalized ornament, keyboard, and plenty more! 





 How cute is this shirt???
 


Andrew - clothes, jammies, Star Wars Operation, Connect 4 Flip, Headbands Game, Green Lantern DVD, plasma car, Angry Birds blanket, tools, personalized ornament, Kirby DS & Wii Game, Kung Fu Panda 2 and much more.




Ethan - clothes, jammies, Uno Roboto, Bop It, The Smurfs DVD, plasma car, Angry Birds blanket, personalized ornament, tools, Spy Kids 4 DVD, ear phones, crafts and much more.



The boys received an X-Box 360, Kinect and 4 games from Santa this year.  Wow - they must have been really good!!!  They were so super excited and so were we. 

The couldn't wait to get on those plasma cars my Mom bought.  They were racing inside the house Saturday night but needed the driveway to really get it done.  Matt and Mom were also racing them in the house, pretty sure Matt won that one! 

Ethan always takes Grandma Munchies cane and walks around like an old person, cracks us up.  Well he was certainly happy to have Grandma Flowers walker to use around the house as well.

Look at that face!

Not to be outdone by his brother!



For Christmas morning breakfast I tried out a new recipe, Creme Brulee French Toast, yum!
 
Yum!
 
And yes, that came from Pinterest.  If you still haven't checked it out now would be the time to do so.  So now it's Monday, we are home relaxing while the boys are playing with pretty much everything. The plan is to get everything put away, Christmas decorations taken down and more relaxing.  I can assure you at least one of those things will happen and I am pretty sure we all know which one that is!

  1. Glad the boys had a wonderful Christmas, everyone looked like they had a great time. The grown ups left all there troubles behind and it turned out to be a perfect day all around. Christine and Mary danced to the WII and those two girls have the moves, it was fun to watch. Happy New Year to all.

  2. Oh, my neighbors have a plasma car and it is by far the most popular thing. Even my big kids love it. I should get us one.
