New Years Eve 2011

We spent New Years Eve back in Texas at Meme and Papa's house! We bbq'd some shish-kabobs and Meme made all her yummy treats for the fun night!

Meme's chocolate sauce is so irresistible we caught Kyler eating it by the spoonfuls when nobody was looking!!!

We watched a little football and relaxed and hung out! These 2 munchkins didn't make it to the NYE balll dropping at midnight, but Jason and I got to stay up at home for that together! Can't wait to see what 2012 has in store for us! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

The Day After Christmas

The day after Christmas we just hung out around the house and relaxed all morning and afternoon! Kyler loves his cousin Cole so much already and Cole got a kick out of him tickling his toes!

And we can't have a visit to Grammy and Grandpas house over Christmas time and not get to pick fresh oranges from their orange tree and and make fresh orange juice! The boys love helping Grandpa!

The boys decided they wanted to paint their model cars they got for Christmas! Love their little faces in full concentration mode!

That night we went out with the whole family for a yummy dinner and our last night together before flying back home to Texas! Sure do miss all these faces every time we have to leave.

Rex and Terry got me this metal calendar for Christmas and it's one of my favorite organization methods yet! I've already put it to great use since we've been home!  I LOVE it!

Christmas Day 2011!!!

Christmas Morning finally came for the boys and this year was so much fun to watch them get so excited about opening presents with their grandparents, aunts and uncles and cousin Cole!

Of course, since Christmas fell on Sunday, we had to start the day off with our traditional breakfast casserole and fresh orange slices from Grammy and Grandpas orange tree. 

Then it was off to church in our Sunday best!

After church everyone got back in their comfy Christmas PJ's for presents and family time! 

Loved meeting and getting to know Giselle this Christmas! :)

Thank you Grammy for the harmonicas that drove my mommy crazy the first couple weeks after we got home from California! :)

It was so fun to see the boys opening presents from everyone! 

Cole just steels the show with his beautiful blue eyes and adorable personality! Can't wait to see these boys grow up and play as cousins one day!

The boys had to help Grammy and Grandpa open their presents up too!

Kyler was very much into trains this year and wanted ALL of the Thomas and Friends trains! And Camden loves the movie Cars and was so excited (if you can't tell on his face) to get the plane from the Cars 2 movie! Such lucky boys this Christmas!

After opening all the presents it was time to play! Aunt Kali and Grandpa jumped right in to help Camden and Kyler explore their new art kits they got! One of their favorite things to do is color and paint and draw so this gift was perfect for them!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Chirstmas EVE 2011!!!

After packing up at the cabin and heading back to Grammy and Grandpa's house it was Christmas Eve, we settled down that evening with a game of Christmas BINGO!

 Had to have a little wrestling time with Uncle Kyle because that is so important:)!!!

 It's not the same at grammy's house without a bag of Resses Peanut Butter Cups!!! Jordan got ahold of it that night:)

 A little more wrestling time!

While the boys were doing boy stuff, Jason's mom had and early Christmas eve gift for the girls to open so we snuck away to the back room to open them up!

 After all that excitment, it was time for Christmas eve PJ's and time for bed so Santa could come!!!

 Of course, the excitement took over so there was some crazy dancing and silliness in their new Santa pj's before bed time!

 The girls all had matching pj's too!!! What's Christmas without the pj pictures:)

 And finally, peace in the house while Grandpa read the boys a Christmas bedtime story!!!
