Christmas Day!!!

Christmas morning was so wonderful and not at all as chaotic as you might think with that many people! Apart from Avila (who was like 6 weeks old) I think jared was the first one awake- at 7:30 am. The kids slowly started to trickle in and we let them open their stockings while they waited for everyone else to wake up. I think Erin fianlly had to wake Brett and Shane up at like 10 because all the kids were getting anxious to open their santa gifts!

Jared, Spencer and Tommy all had gotten cute matching jammies the night before- santa left a huge bag of new pjs for the kids to open. They were all so cute! I tried really hard to get a cute pic of the 3 boys, but it didn't happen. someone was always moving.

Spencer was awake, for stockings, but then asleep for santa gifts. He really just wanted to eat all the paper and play with everyone else's toys. And Jared was MORE THAN WILLING to open your present for you. He didn't care what was in them. He just wanted to rip the paper open and move on to another one.

From Santa, Jared got the coolest "wild, wild, west" (as he calls it!) It is a cute old fort, with soldiers, horse and wagon, cannons etc. He just LOVES it! Spencer got a LeapFrog activity table. He is finally crawing on all fours and pulling himself up- so this has been just perfect for him! He LOVES to dance!

This is cousin Natalie. She took such good care of Spencer and Jared- just whenever she felt they needed it. She is AWESOME! Jason says jared has a little crush on her. It's really cute to see how he wants to just be with her when she is around.

And this is wonderful grandma mcke who lovingly let us destroy her house. THANKS GRAMMA! WE LOVE YOU!! The rest of the day was spend relaxing and enjoying our new toys. It was a wonderful christmas!
