Christmas 2012

Christmas Eve we spent the evening at Mom and Dad's watching the Polar Express.  Kacie was on cloud 9 when Steele Hartley brought over this adorable coat and shirt for her for Christmas and her birthday.

Joshua and Brady had fun decorating gingerbread houses with stickers while we watched.

Such a cute picture of Mom and Dad Face-Timing Rosie's family.

This pictures just makes me smile....Brandon loves to feel mine and Kacie's hair.

Aunt Anita got these magnets for Brady last year and Mom couldn't find them until this year.  He was tickled he got a present from Anita in heaven and loves playing with them.  I couldn't believe how strong they were...see they even stick through his hand.

Our Christmas Eve tradition has always been for the kids to open one present and it is always new PJs for Christmas morning.

I love how he gets so excited over the simplest things... gumballs for his machine!

Kacie was excited about her new iPod Nano.  Now she can have hours and hours of music and have her Touch for other stuff.

All that Brandon has asked for is Coke.  In fact when he sees people instead of Merry Christmas he says, "Happy Cola!"

 Brady loves his lava lamp and we love the 8.5 quart cast iron pot that Mom and Dad gave us.

We had a wonderful Christmas dinner at Gerald and Wanda's  

We had my favorite... roast and Yorkshire pudding.

I love this girl so much!

We had our traditional White elephant gift exchange.  It is fun to have Danielle part of the family now.

 The girls are checking out Brady's moon that he got.

 Brandon got an iPod gift card.

Kacie got this cute hat for her gift.  Scott and I took the boys home later and Kacie went to the late night movie with Stacie.  They saw the Hobbit in 3D.  They said they loved it!
