Christmas Day

...we met my mom's side of the fam. in Allegan at my Aunt's and Uncle's and always have a HUGE breakfast, complete with french toast, bacon, eggs, saugage, homemade cinnamon rolls, and SO much more. Everyone opens gifts and hangs out. Then we drove back to my mom's house on Gull Lake and spent the afternoon there, opening gifts, playing the Wii, and eating dinner. We had such a good time, even if we did have to sing the 12 days of Christmas at the dinner table (Kasey, we missed your beautiful voice, hope you'll be home next year to take part :)). Riley got the American doll bitty baby stroller, clothes, and much more. My mom and Jeff gave us $$ for Lincoln because he really didn't need more toys, so we're going to put that towards a car seat for him.

Ty, Lincoln and I with Kol and Britton (they just got back from their honeymoon in Mexico-LUCKY :)...they're not normally that tan :).

This is what I get for letting my brother give Riley ONE piece of chocolate and not watching her every move. She had it all over her clothes and especially all over her white sweater! (THANKS KOLBY)

The following weekend we went to my Dad's side of the family for the weekend. The kids always have fun there playing with the girls and this weekened was no exception. As I've said before Riley loves calling and playing with Papa, she had so much fun with my dad and actually kept wanting him to change her diapers (which was fine by me!!) :). Riley got the cutest tea set and now loves having tea parties--she is quite the girlie-girl!

We had a wonderful Christmas and have so much to be thankful for. It's always a very hectic and busy time of the year, but so enjoyable and every year is memorable.

CHRISTMAS POSTS DONE :)!!
