Christmas 2011

Christmas was crazy this year -- church, company and gifts! We loved it, but unfortunately, didn't get very many pictures of the day.

 

 

 

 

I got these before the boys got started opening gifts, stockings are a big deal at our house, and it seems like we could just have Santa bring stocking gifts and the boys would be happy. They do like the other things though. Spencer was thrilled with his remote control truck. Ryan was disappointed but not surprised that he didn't get the laptop that he asked for -- somehow there was a "family" laptop that he seems to like, though. And Jacob. He is in HEAVEN -- the LOVES the GPS unit that he got, he has been marking things on the unit and seems to be enjoying. We gave these things as well as a few other things and went to church with the boys happy. At church they were being a bit unruly, and I told theme they had better be careful or they wouldn't get their last gift. They were so surprised and excited to get bikes!! We have been working ever since on Spencer learning to ride -- sink or swim hill has become a swimming hill for him! Jake's jawhorse has come in handy and the boys have taught themselves how to change bike tires themselves.

Looks like so much fun and the boys will be just fine using family computers for awhile. Jessica is hoping to get a laptop for college next year but she's survived with a family that just has a desktop for high school.

And, I have to add, we had the hungry hippo travel game and loved it for years until it finally wore out.
