I love Christmas time. I love setting up my village and decorating the tree and wrapping gifts for my children. I love all the food that I get to eat and all the photos people post to see. I love how everyone gets into the spirit of Christmas and seem so much nicer to each other.
I love spending time with my family, even though it’s not ALL of my family. I especially love seeing the excitement in my kids as it gets closer and closer. Here are just a few photos to share our Christmas with you.
Grandma Ann got each of the kids a nice set of fancy clothes to wear because Alex had mentioned that he didn’t have any. They both look so cute in them.
Jack had to be bribed into putting his on and took them off immediately once the picture taking was done. Alex on the other hand wore his for two days straight. He would constantly ask everyone if they thought he looked handsome in his his clothes.
On eof Alex’s favorite gifts was the Dragon Happy Napper that turns into a castle pillow for sleeping.
Jack’s very favorite was the remote control helicopter that he has been asking for the past few years. It was broken three times within the first 48 hours.
Alex had a themed Christmas it seemed and that theme was the Thundercats. He loved putting the sword in front of him and saying “give me sight beyond sight.”
Both kids got pop up books that were very intricate and were just fascinated by all the detail and pictures.
I f Alex’s theme was Thundercats then Jack’s theme was Halo. I’m not really sure why he latched onto this particular brand so much, but he was looking for the Halo Lego’s and since he had a ton of other Lego sets we decided that the action figures might be easier to play with as well as keep together.
Of course Alex had to get his present from Santa. Even though Santa has brought him two previous Optimus Prime toys, he had to have the Optimus Prime with the Mech tech weapons. How does he even know this stuff?
More Halo for Jack.
Christmas started out on Christmas Eve and ended late Christmas Day. We had a lot food, family, and fun and we were even able to get a good family photo in with everyone looking very nice.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from our family to yours.
