Christmas 2008



I am a little late at posting this, but thought better late than never. We had a great Christmas. Christmas Eve we went to a party at my Aunt Lori's house. Meg had so much fun because two of my cousins have young kids too and she got to run around and be crazy with them. She was completely wired by the time we got home, but she and Will finally went to bed just in time for Santa to come. The kids woke up around 7:30 on Christmas morning. It was so fun to see Meg's face light up as she opened her presents. The biggest thing she got this year was a kitchen, but she didn't really give it a second look until later that night. She got some more cars from the movie Cars and also received Mack the semi. She got a little piano which she has loved. Will got some books and toys. After opening our presents we went to my parents for a delicious breakfast and got to spend the morning and afternoon with them and Brian and Kara too. It was so fun. Meg and Will were completely spoiled and they both just wanted to play all day. We headed home, thinking that we were going to get a nap in, but found our house covered in a snow drift. The kids were asleep in the car so Dave and I dug our house out and then headed to Jim and Sarah's for more family fun. We had dinner there and opened more presents. Meg LOVES her cousins so she had a great time playing there. We finally headed home, bathed the kids and then let the kids play with all of their new toys. Meg played and played and finally Will and I were ready for bed. Meg stayed up with Dave and finally gave in and went to bed around 10:00. We had a wonderful day with our family.

The dressing up has begun!! Fun times! Sydney still dresses up once in awhile and she is 9!! Zander has the same little basketball/baseball/football set that Will has! Except we have lost most of the balls and he now just uses his hands to make the little buzzer go off! The baseball bat of course is used to hit everything else other than that basebal!!
