Christmas

For the past few months the boys have been telling us they really wanted horses for Christmas.  Levi and I thought it would phase out, but as the time got closer they got more instant.  Levi with the help of his sister found some great little horses for the boys.  They are gentle as they come and the boys are in love with them.  They are still in the process of figuring out names. 

Christmas morning Santa left a note for the boys and then they called Papa who brought them over a little while later.  The video of their excitement and Papa's is priceless.

Santa left a special note

Haven and her doll

Haven's first Christmas was much like we expected.  She played and rolled around in all the paper and probably ate some of it too.  She LOVED it.  Santa brought her the cutest little soft doll.

Christmas Eve

The past couple years we have decided to not drive in to town for any Christmas Eve service.  Our Christmas day is packed with three celebrations.  It gives our little family a chance to be home and celebrate the birth of Jesus together.  We had a yummy dinner and watched Christmas movies.  It's becoming one of my favorite nights.  And of course I take LOADS of pictures.

Ornaments and Cookies with Nannie

Every year Natalie has us over to make Santa cookies and this year she added ornaments too!  The kids always have so much fun!

Slumber Party

Levi and I were VERY brave and had a slumber party for Karlee's birthday this year.  It was ALOT of girls (19 to be exact) and 2 very happy boys!  The girt

NFR

We might just have a little bronc/bull rider on our hands.  He LOVED watching this and pretending to ride,  A bull whip, stool and cowboy hat is all you need.

Kings kids program

Our family is blessed that the kids are able to attend the Methodist Church on Wednesday night to attend Kings Kids.  It is the highlight of the week and they enjoy doing it with their cousins and friends.  We are so thankful for all of the volunteers who help make this hour a week about Jesus and have fun doing it.  We loved the Christmas program this year...this is the kids all dolled up.
