Christmas 2008

Christmas eve we went to my parents for dinner and practiced our first annual nativity. The kids had fun there is a video of it here.

The kids exchanged gifts. Lucy has entered girly land and is never coming back. She loved her gift, thank you Mylie!

Hudson couldn't have been happier with getting Transformers. Thank you Coen!
After the kids exchanged gifts we had our white elephant exchange. Always entertaining!

Then we hopped in the back of the truck and looked at christmas lights. The kids love it but out where my parents live now there aren't to many people that go crazy with their lights so next year we will have to scope out better neighborhoods.


Then it was time to go home and wait for Santa!
Nate had put the truck together 2 nights before at my parents house so all we had to put together was the picnic table from my mom. We thought it would be no big deal but I am determined that anything from Little Tykes takes 3 times as long as you think it will take. After I think an hour and a half we finally had it all together (and this time we read the instructions first!)

The kids decided to wake up at around 9 and they came downstairs to see what Santa brought.

Of course the truck was the big hit at first so we let them check it out for a while.



And then we had to force them to open there other gifts.

Oh my Lucy the poser - hilarious! And that xray machine is wretched! Whoever came up with that should be kicked in the butt. Poor Lucy, poor you! Paige still talks about her friend being asleep...
