I love this season but I am always so sad by how quickly it is over! While I can't stand the crowds and shopping I love the decorations, weather and the music. This year we decided to make it a small Christmas and really enjoy the reason for the season and since Christmas fell on a Sunday we were able to do just that. After the frenzy of unwrapping presents and eating breakfast we went to church and enjoyed a wonderful Christmas program. Although, this Christmas was a bit smaller than past Christmas's the kids still got plenty of presents and everything they wanted! Next year I am going to cut back even more and take the advice of one blogger who gives her children 4 things: 1 gift they want, 1 gift they need, 1 gift to eat and 1 gift to read!

| Anna was thrilled to wake up and find bunk beds and a friend for Kit, welcome to the family Ruthie. |
 |
| One of Anna's favorite presents...the Bieber microphone and sing along! |
 |
| Aiden gave his sister a new Ken doll to replace the one that he ripped the head off. This Ken is particularly creepy as he has a 5 o'clock shadow that you can shave off..... |
 |
| One of the most fun gifts for all is this pogo stick from Grandpa Dan....even mom can do it! |

| Trent testing out Aiden's new scooter (that Santa forgot to charge for 18 hours before the 1st use...ooops) |

| Aiden testing out Anna's new scooter...the perfect combo for Anna a way to cruise and make art at the same time! |
