We had a great Christmas this year. I have been sick through out it and just not starting to feel a little better, but other than that we had a very nice Christmas. Kristopher got a few of his gifts ahead of time this year which we don't usually do, but this year it just worked out that way. He got a new 4wheeler a month or two ago which he LOVES!!! He also got to go see a Rams vs Falcons game. His team (the Falcons) lost!! :-( He has two favorite NFL teams, the Saints and the Falcons, so as one of his presents this year we decided we would re-do his bedroom for him. So most of his presents under the tree this year were sports related things for his room. He also has a favorite College team which is the Florida Gators so he also received allot of Gators things for his room. My mom lives in FL so she was able to get allot of good stuff for him. I got him Saints sheets, a comfortor, valances for his windows, Saints parking signs, a clock, wall banner and a few other things. He of course got video games and clothes as well. I think his favorite thing other than the 4wheeler was something I didn't really approve of, but that he wanted really bad was his shot gun. He loves to shoot skeet out at Cotton's brothers lake, and he always has to use someone else's gun and has been asking for his own the past few months. So we bought one this year for him for Christmas. He will be of course taking a saftey course as soon as we can find one close to us. He is very responsible so I do trust him with it, I just HATE guns. But the gun and the bullets are in seperate parts of the house and he doesn't know where either are. Cotton talked to his brothers and they are going to go shooting this weekend. Kristopher is VERY excited about that. Of coure Cotton mentioned rabbit hunting, but Kristopher wasn't as thrilled about that. He isn't the hunting type. He doesn't like to kill a fly in the house much less a deer or rabbit. (I did something right) LOL
So below are a few pictures of our Christmas Day events!! We went to eat at some good friends of ours Melissa and Ken. I made a ham, stuffing, (the good kind not that yucky cornbread stuffing) LOL, and two pumpkin pie cheese cakes. We also had turkey, mac and cheese, rolls, cheesey potato casarole, mashed potatoes and gravey. Everything was wonderful!!! After dinner the kids were playing the Rock Band game for PS3. They were so funny singing and playing the guitar and drums!! They were having a great time!! I was really starting to feel bad so didn't get to stay to long but did get a few pictures of everyone playing.
We had our Christmas with my niece and nephew over the weekend. Dillon just couldn't wait to open those presents under the tree that had his name on it. He went through them all to see which were his!! :-) So there are a few pictures of them as well!! They are both just to cute! So excited about everything. Kaitlyn would just clap and giggle with everything that was opened even if it wasn't hers, and sometimes before it was even all the way opened. She had no clue what it was but she would just clap and giggle!! To cute!!! Dillon wanted to open every box and play with everything RIGHT NOW!! He even stayed the night so he could keep playing with everything!!
There are a few pictures of the little ones before Christmas Eve Service on Monday. (Kristopher was still at his dads when they came by). Dillon wanted to wear his clip on tie that he had left here awhile back and fufus (what he calls Kristopher) skull cap for the pictures!! He's such a goof ball!!
Opening the shells he was realizing what that meant!! :-)
I just love the excited faces when they open things!! Maybe thats why I'm so broke all the time I need to stop loving those faces!! LOL
Before Christmas Eve Service, my sweet angel Kailtyn!! Dillon laid on his belly for a picture so sister had to as well, but didn't stay long enough for the camera to snap the picture, she started to crawl away!!
