Christmas 2007!

Josh holding his webkinz-he's wanted one for so long!


We had a fun Christmas! It's always crazy with four kids. We spent Christmas Eve at my parents. My dad had set up a little shooting range of sorts down in his basement for the kids to shoot bb guns. It was a lot of fun, not what you'd call a normal Christmas activity but it was fun. We had a yummy dinner, my mom is the best cook, then we opened presents. We spent Christmas morning at my house, then the afternoon with Matt's family. My parents got the kids a Wii, so most of the presents were somehow related to the Wii. That is the funnest thing ever. My upper body is killing me from boxing, baseball, tennis, bowling, fishing, it's super fun!

God was totally awesome and decided to let it snow during Christmas break. We headed up to my sister and let the kids play. You can tell they haven't grown up in the snow, they last about 10 min and then come in complaining of cold and needed hot chocolate. Those of us that grew up in K. Falls just put on all sorts of layers and go play.

I have to admit that I'm glad that they're back to school. Sam, the 4 yr old, was starting to drive me crazy. He's attached to me and is a total momma's boy. He wanted to know where I was every waking moment of the day. I went outside to take out the garbage, he came out after me crying, saying "why you leaving me, mom?"

These are such fun pictures! Man, are your kids cute. We have friends who have a Wii - it is really fun. Do you have the game where you spin a cow around in circles and let go and see how far it flies before it lands and bounces while letting out awful, deathly moo sounds? It's really disturbing.

no, but that actually sounds fun, we have one with crazy rabbits with these weird little games, the kids mostly like the sports games. We have a new word in our house "wiingover" it's the sore muscles most out of shape adults feel the day after playing the wii.

Sounds like a great Christmas. We got a Wii this Christmas too. That cow game sounds Awesome. I love cows. The sports game is really fun, and then I got My Sims. It's easy enough for my youngest to play it, but interesting enough that I enjoy it. Of course Mario Party 8. We love 4 player games like that. I love that word,
"wiingover". LOL
