Merry Christmas!!

Hi everyone! Hope you had a great Christmas with family and friends. We had a great time over Christmas break. We went to the Christmas eve candlelight service at our church and then came home and made cookies for santa. My (christy) mom and dad came over to help and spent the night which has become the tradition the last few years. This picture is of the kids on grandpa's mattress in the kitchen. They had to sit there until the rest of us old folks were ready to go into the great room....we were pretty tired...it was a long night! Notice the excitement on their faces!!
I guess I got these out of order...Taylor making cookies on Christmas eve. We made about 3-4 dozen probably...all with icing and sprinkles!! Santa thought they were pretty good!!
This was probably the most exciting present of the morning...they finally got a playstation 2!!! They got to play it a lot over break and now they have slowed down a little. They each get 15-20 minutes and then they know they need to take a break...no sitting in front of the TV all day!! That was the one thing I was worried about...kids glued to the television!!

Taylor was looking forward to getting an American Girl Doll...she is very cool! I like this photo also because I caught Brody in the background opening his scooter. The boys each got a scooter and have really enjoyed them.

Here they are after getting the cookies done...turned out pretty well.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!
