Christmas Day Fun 2009!

We had a great Christmas day! I will only post a few of my favorite pictures.
We have a rule with the kids that they are not to get up and wake everyone until 6:30 am. So, in the middle of the night, I could hear a lot of movement upstairs and when I looked at the clock it said 3:30. I ran upstairs to inform my boys that it wasn't yet 6:30. They told me they were too excited and couldn't sleep and so were going to put together the lego set that Grant had gotten on Christmas Eve. I quickly told them that they had about 1 minute to turn out the lights, get into bed and be silent, or the 6:30 wake up would be pushed back to 8:30 am. Boy, can those boys move fast when they are properly motivated! I didn't hear a peep from them until 6:24.

The kids started their morning by going through the stockings. They modeled their new hats.
Snuggies were another highlight! Kristen said she always wanted one!

Later we headed to my parents. Here are most of the grandkids with hats made by my nieces Emma and Laura! Wow! That's a lot of knitting!

Grant got a cool helmet from Grandma and Grandpa to go with the skateboard Santa brought him.



Kristen got a beautiful doll and new coat. I love this picture because she's wearing the skates she got from Grandma and Grandpa Odom. They never left her feet the whole day! She loves them!!




Natha was thrilled with his new Indiana Jones lego set.




I had to include this cute one of my newest nephew, Christian. His present was bigger than he is!
