Christmas

Well I would add cute pictures of Christmas -----> here..... But they really turned out crappy, so I am just chocking it up to the fact that I had only had 3 hours of sleep and it was 5 am....

HOWEVER~

My Children proclaimed it the best Christmas ever, so I must have done good!

Coulton got an MP3 player, the book of WHY, the Teen Survival Guide (by John Bytheway I love his stuff!), and a book called From Deacon to Man of God (can you see a theme here- he hits teenager is 1 month!) and Pj's (Coulton also got a Webkins even though he is a bit old for them his is a brown dog named Jack)

Taylor got a  PINK Telescope (yes I know that she is 10 but she is a total freak about space, if the weather would just cooperate we could try it out), the American Girl book the Care and Keeping of You, a book about space, and a Plantsphere (it tells you where the stars are supposed to be). A Webkins Turtle (named Fred) and Pj's with Monkeys on them her fav animal.

Mara is my little me and she got her very own Sewing Machine this year ( a Brother one so its not the top of the line but its not bad). Along with a couple of projects and all the necessary sewing stuff that you HAVE to have. She also got a Diary of a Whimpy kid book, a Cockatoo Webkins (named Moe) and Pjs with Kitty's on them (her fav animal).

Lexi is my little mother and LOVES her American girl dolls. She got American Girl outfits, a hair styling kit and her Pet this year (she wanted Sugar which is a cute little dog with long hair). She got 3 Fancy Nancy books that are just barely over her level so that they will challenge her, and Pink Frog Webkins (named Pinky Heart) and Pj's with Butterflies on them.

And then .... We bought them a Wii!! I know I have said in the past that I hate Video games but I like the fact that it makes you MOVE! Which is a wonderful thing. They got 4 steering wheels 3 extra controllers, the sports pack of stuff you hook on your controller, and like 7 games (but I could be wrong it could be more). We have already had several  family bowling tournaments (even Grammie and Papa get in on the action) and Lexi is by far our best bowler! I think its because she doesn't worry about it and just flings it out there- but its super cute!

And all this stuff really doesn't count what everyone else gave them! So it was the best Christmas in years! Plus I think that it felt more like Christmas to them because we have spent more Christmases at Grammie and Papa's house than any where else- due to the whole Wyoming thing- so it was good that way too.

Now I have to go and get ready for 2 birthdays at the end of the month- and I have no idea what to give them!
