Christmas!

Here are a few more highlights of Christmas. We had a nice visit with the Enz family. Peter passed on some Lego interest on to Kyle.
The boys made Cars Gingerbread Cookies!


We went bowling with a few neighbors. Kyle remains 'Elf Ready' sporting his hat.

Many afternoons were full of hot chocolate requests.


We had a Christmas party. Santa and Mrs. Claus just happen to stop by.


Here's all the kiddos with Santa.


And the adults. Not the clearest picture...but we don't get pictures of us too often.



We had a family day and went downtown. We went to the top of the monument, out to lunch, and did some Christmas shopping at the mall. The boys split up to pick out presents for each other. They picked out the exact same thing....Skiing Finn McMissle.


Christmas Eve we had our Birthday Party for Jesus with the Wiese Family.


The boys loved dressing nice for Christmas Eve service (notice Kyle's new 'elf' hat). He called himself the 'working elf' as he is an elf and is dressed how daddy goes to work.






Here's Christmas morning with the boys and their Santa presents. Kyle opened his tricycle horn and Santa did find a Lewis Hamilton at the North Pole for Ryan.



We enjoyed the entire day home as a family. It was wonderful.



The boys finally got to open the doors to their new bedroom. They LOVE the Cars2 theme. Big pictures on the wall, a 'parking garage' for all their cars, and the bunk beds.


So far we've only had 2 mishap (ie learning opportunity) with the bunk beds. Ryan was standing on the bottom bunk, talking to Kyle (on the top bunk), fell backwards and landed on his head. Within 30 minutes, Kyle attempted to pass something down to Ryan and decided to retrieve it using the route via the wall. He got wedged between the bunk and the wall. Needless to say, the boys spent the night in their old bedroom and have been following the rules ever since.
