Christmas 2009













So, I know this post is a little late, but we had the most wonderful Christmas this year, except for the weather. We had lunch on Christmas Eve with my father-in-law's family, we ate lasagna (the first time I have had lasagna for a Christmas meal), this goes back to the bad weather, we canceled our get together to start off, then it was back on because the weather wasn't so bad. Christmas day we stayed home, just the four of us because the weather once again got worse. We opened gifts with the kids and ate pancakes for lunch and meatballs for supper. We got Brenna a princess castle as you can see in the pictures as well as two princess dresses and a Tag Jr. reading system. Jacob got a Fisher-Price toy (I can't think of what it is called), a pretend toolbox (tools, including a rattle saw and hammer) and two trucks. It was a great day to spend as a family.

On the 26th we finally had Christmas with Morgan's parents, it was a great time. Brenna got a Barbie 4-wheeler and a set of Disney Princess Barbies (these were the two favorites) along with many other gifts. Jacob got the most precious rocking horse and toy box, and many other wonderful presents. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for the wonderful gifts!

On Sunday the 27th we had Christmas with my mother-in-laws family. Brenna and Jacob had a wonderful time playing with their 2nd cousins (maybe 3rd or 4th, not really sure the technical term, Morgan's cousin's kids). The kids received many wonderful gifts from Great-grandma and Great-grandpa and from Great-aunt and uncle. I love spending time with family, this coming Sunday we will have Christmas with my family and then we will be done with Christmas for this year, but hopefully we will remember all year that Christmas is about the birth of Christ and a season for giving!
