Jerusha and I made the ginger bread houses and
then we all got to decorate one. It was tons of fun.
I didn't get the after pictures. I forgot.

Brendan is 4 years old and is such a goofball.
If you want a laugh or a twitch just hang
around this guy.You will get both!
Emma is terrified of Santa. She wanted me to
pick herup when Santa came. I had to get this
picture. She wouldn'tsit on his lap but would give
him a kiss. She is funny that way.
Brendan was sitting on Jerusha's (mommy's) lap
a little apprehensive of Santa Claus.

found that it tasted good.
If you notice what she is wearing, it is her
Tigger costume. She found
it and wanted to be Tigger for the day.

kick out of that.

Christmas was tons of fun and was the most perfect day.
Dad came over for breakfast and the rest of the days
activities. We opened gifts, which Emma helped open
almost all of mine. She had so much fun. She kept saying
"Present." It was fun.

This play jungle gym thing was one of Emma's gifts.
We put it up in her room Christmas eve so she would
wake up with a surprise. She loves going down the
slide. I actually found this on the side of the road.
Someone was getting rid of it. I put the seats down
in the van and grabbed it and threw it in. I am not
ashamed of free stuff. I didn't pay a penny for it which
is even better. It is also fun to dumpster dive as my
friend has shown me. He found in the dumpster in back
of Borders a lot of new stuff that they just threw away.
It was all in perfect condition too. Hmmm!
Chris and I sanitized the slide and everything.
Voila, Brand new!
As you can see what Zeke is laying on, they are bear
rugs that I got as a white elephant gift. I was so excited
about them. I knew that Emma would love them. Well,
it turned out that Zeke loved them more. Silly Kitty! as
Emma says all the time.
Papa after opening gifts and eating breakfast. He looks happy!
Chris to work making deviled eggs. isn't he HOT!
I love a man in the kitchen.
New Years Eve Party
First we started the party by decorating our 2010 hats.
I made out of cardstock a "2010" that we could color.
The kids were really excited about that. then we put our
hats together and there you have it, our Hats.
Brendan is totally sweet with the bill on his hat.
Davis and his sweet hat
Dad looks like a priest from Fiddler on the Roof.
Chris totally pimpin'
We played some games too. We played "Quarters." We divided up into teams. Me, Davis and Kayla on one team, Then Chris, Pops and Brendan on the other. Which ever teams turn it was had the quarter. They would put the quarter in someone's hand and try to put their hands on the table all at the same time so the other team had to guess who's hand the quarter was under. We kept score and it went back and forth. If we guessed the hand the quarter was under we got a point and the quarter. if they guessed it then they got a point and the quarter. We had tons of fun doing that.
Then we played guess which cup the cotton ball is under. I put a cotton ball under a cup of three and shuffled the cups. Whoever guessed right got to shoot big marshmallows at the others who guessed wrong. we had a catapult thing to shoot the marshmallows with. It was a lot of fun. Each person got a turn shuffling the cotton ball. Then after a while we just had a marshmallow fight. Of course it was started by Davis and Uncle Chris.
Then we went downstairs to play a little basketball. We played "Ghost" and I lost every time. Oh well. It was tons of fun. Brendan wanted to always slam the ball in the hoop. He is a goober.
I was surprised the kids stayed up to midnight. Papa was asleep at 11:30ish. Davis, Chris and I stayed up til 1 am playing Super Mario Brothers Wii. That is quite an addicting game. It is so much fun. I wish we had it. But we can wait 'til we have money for such an addiction. I guess I can stick to mario kart wii.
Chucking the Marshmallows!
Kayla shuffling the cups and her chucking the marshmallows. She is silly!
Brendan has mad shuffling skills as well. He is so cute.
