Our Christmas!

Our week was CRAZY busy as usual. The beginning of the week we had Shaffen's work Christmas party. This year they had prizes and games. Shaffen and I won the Newly Wed game with a tie breaker question. The question was how much money does your husband have in his wallet right now? Easy enough for me he always has $0!!! And I was right he had ZERO! We hardly ever have cash for some reason. Our prize was 1 night stay in the new hotel here in a suite, 2 movie tickets and dinner for 2 up to $40 at the Manor House. Not a bad prize, they had quite a few like that. We had fun. Thank you Becki for coming to watch our boys!



This as Christmas Eve, the boys were being a little crazy as usual.
They got to open their Christmas PJ's that night. Covin was so excited about Santa coming. Conner still didn't like the idea!

Covin couldn't hardly wait for Conner to get up. We let him get into his stocking while we waited for Conner. This is his new Webkin "Spike." We finally let Covin wake Conner up, of course I took my video camera in there for his reaction that Santa did come into his house. He was not excited at all. He kept saying, "No he not!"

It didn't take long after waking up that he did figure out that Santa is so nice!

Conner made out like a bandit! He got a Diego train set. We have a lot of Thomas, so this is what Santa brought. This train is VERY kid friendly. Covin and Conner can set the whole thing up by themselves. He also got a truck, hummer with a trailer, game, webkin, a wonder pet, a tow truck from Covin, and some movies.
Covin finally got a Nintendo DS with 5 games! He wanted an X box also but I guess Santa wanted him to start with this one! He also got trucks, hummer with a trailer (my boys LOVE trucks with trailers), a cop car from Conner, movies, can't forget Jerky from grandpa Chris.

I got a Cricut Expression!!! With 2 extra cartridges and a tool kit for it! I am very excited about this!!!! Then my parents came down the day after Christmas and brought homemade candy galore! My favorite! Then my dad, Shaffen and Steven build me a work bench in my garage for me to make crafts! It looks great!!!

Shaffen apparently stayed up too long last night waiting for Santa! He took a little nap in the recliner until I made him get up and help me make a path in the living room! Shaffen got his hunting licence (combo), a new set of shooting sticks (he lost his other ones hunting), a picture, and the one he is most excited about has not arrived. I was really bummed we ordered him an over and under shot gun on the 9th, it still is not here! It will be here tomorrow! He already bought the shells he just needs the gun!!!

Rotten boys!!! :) Rachel and her family and Jarrod and his family came over for Christmas dinner. We ate steak and twice baked potatoes and salad. The kids were WIRED! Maybe because they had a lot of sugar that day and I am sure all of their new things made them extremely happy! It was funny, they had a lot of energy. And as for the adults we all just wanted to go to bed!!!!

And then Saturday we woke up to this! I have lived here for almost 10 years now and it has only snowed here I believe 4 times! It wasn't much but it was exciting!

My parents came and brought my grandma with them. She hung out with the kids watching movies with them. This night was a little much with the crazy boys. Covin is missing from the picture because it takes him FOREVER to eat.

I cannot believe how fast this month has flown by. Makes me sad.....I am not ready to go back to school yet. I feel so behind on everything, now we need to take all the Christmas stuff down. It feels like we just put it up! We hope everyone had a Merry Christmas like we did!!! :)
