Christmas 2007
Well here are the kids in their new PJ’s on Christmas Eve. Very excited for Christmas.
On Christmas Eve we also have the tradition that Jason started or rather continued from his childhood. He chooses a small gift for each of the kids then wraps it up with yarn. He also adds small toys and candy until it becomes a large yarn ball. He then hides them from the kids. They have to find their ball and unwrap it. They look forward to this each year almost as much as Santa coming… It becomes quite crazy with 4 yarn balls being thrown around, yarn everywhere, kids running, cats and dog going wild too! It is a lot of fun.
The girls got new outfits and Heely’s, so they were pretty stoked. Susie was an old pro with the Heely’s. It was pretty funny watching Becca get used to a wheel under her foot, and Katie practiced in the kitchen for a couple of days before she ventured outside.
Xander loved all his toys.Scooby-doo from Santa (he is REALLY into Scooby-doo and his Daddy is saying it is about time he got a kid who loves Scooby-doo!) and he also got a lot of TOOLS. Here he is finding ways to use those tools.
Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and we hope to hear from you soon.
