Merry Christmas 2013

Christmas Morning was very exciting for all of us! 

The boys were very specific with their lists this year.

Rhett: Car Video Game, R2D2 and Perry (from Phineas & Ferb)

Grant: Double Lightsaber, Perry and a big candy cane

 Waiting anxiously to come downstairs!

 Very happy with Santa's gifts!

 Enjoying his Car Video Game and showing off his Perry!

We think Santa knew what a great time we had in Disneyland, so he brought the boys their very own Monorail!

Grant showing off his "big" candy cane and trying out the new sled.

Santa sure knows what kind of toys are handy to have here in Amarillo! 

 Rhett is chatting with R2, they boys have had so much fun with him! He just rolls all over the house and talks ALOT!

 Daddy is showing Grant how to use his shotgun.

 The boys each wrapped their gifts for me! They were beautiful packages, I almost didn't want to open them :) 

 Introductions had to be made to the Star Wars crew! 

They all seem to be getting along nicely. 

 After playing for awhile, we loaded up and went over to Pampa for more gifts!

 Getting ready :)

 Couldn't leave this cute Santa Picture out!

We Love Baby Duke!!

Once again, we all had a wonderful Christmas! We are so very blessed!

Christmas 2013

So.... I have had some official complaints about the lack of my blogging! It wasn't intentional, just got busy with life! I think most of the family that reads our blog, just really wants to see pictures, so my catch up will mostly be pictures!! 

We began our Christmas Celebration with what Aaron likes to call "A Very Pampa Christmas"! We got together with my mothers side of the family for dinner and a white elephant gift exchange. We had a great time!

 Trying to get all the kiddos to look at the camera at once proved difficult! This is the best we could get. 

Sailor and Grant, helping Baby Duke open his gift.

 The boys were super thrilled with their Planes toys! 

 By the end of the night, we were silly!

 A few days after "Pampa Christmas", we had our good friends, Ryan and Nathaniel over for a Christmas lunch. We always have a fun time when these guys are around!

 Next up, Santa Brunch at the Amarillo Club

 Before we knew it, it was time to travel to Bedford for Christmas with Gaga & Papa.

 It has become a tradition to decorate Gingerbread Houses with all the cousins.

So here they are hard at work!

 Finished Product

 Ready for the delicious Christmas dinner Gaga made for us!

 These pictures crack me up! We got all the kids some hunting clothes and guns. As you can see the boys were having a ball, Eme on the other hand was not as impressed!

 Christmas Eve we were at Gigi's House celebrating with Grandad's family.

 Super excited for their gifts!

 After a fun day in Pampa, we were back home getting ready for Santa to visit!

Christmas Day pictures will be coming soon, I promise :)
