Christmas Day 2008

Christmas morning we got up and went downstairs with the flashlight to see what Santa brought. Brig and Kanton were so excited and it was so much fun to watch them open their presents. They both got scooters that they have been wanting forever, cowboy hats, a singing machine/CD player (because Brig is going to be a big country star someday you know), snow boots, coats, movies, clothes, etc., etc., etc.!



Here is Brig trying out the microphone. He is headed for stardom for sure.

They are all worn out after opening all the presents and are laying down to take a breather!

After we opened all of our presents we went to Ray's parents and had another white elephant gift exchange and the kids opened their presents from grandma and papa ~ new Sunday clothes ~ and the cousins drew names between each other. Ray got a battery charger which he really needed and I got a cool mirror that Robin and Nate made.
After that we went back to my parents house and the kids got to open presents from grandma and papa Mills. They got some fun toys that they LOVE....battery operated trucks with a mountain track, a little puppy that barks, games and more! My parents gave us a TON of year supply food which was awesome and Ray's parents gave us a cow that will bring us money ever year when we sell its calf, yay! Thanks moms & dads!!




Christmas was a lot of fun this year. I can't believe it has already come and gone. It will be back again though before we know it!
We hope everyone has a Happy New Year!!

It was so fun to read all your family traditions. It looks like the boys made out alright with Christmas and they had fun doing it! Good Luck Friday, we'll be thinking of you!
