Christmas!

Ok, now for Christmas and only a month late too. We had an awesome Christmas! We really missed family, but it was fun to do our own thing for the first time. Our kids got spoiled as usual, they got so much stuff that we are really struggling even still to try to find a place for it. Christmas Eve we each opened a present(Pajamas), and we gave the kids a book that we had made up for them with pics of my family and Milt's family. I wanted something that the kids could look at so they always have a way to look at and remember their Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, Grandmas and Grandpas, it turned out really cute and Elli loves it!  Santa gave them each a little board game, a bunch of Dr. Seuss books and a Thomas Train set. He also gave Elli a Doctor Kit and a Barbie, which is what SHE asked for with absolutely no help from anyone. Shawn also got Mega blocks and a  Handy Many figurine with some tool boxes, the tools jump up and down and sing (very cute!) He loves that thing! after he opened that he could care less about anything else. He got really angry with us when we would try to get him to open up more presents. He just kept pushing the button and dancing with the tools. Milt and I got a Wii fit. It has been so fun! It's a nice convenient and fun way for us to get a little exercises in, Elli even likes to play. The kids also got a Ton of stuff from everyone else! Thanks Grandma Rass, for the bobble head train and for the Build a bear (or Kitty)! Thank you Grandma Poll for all the clothes, The Beautiful Greg Olson book! and other fun stuff. Thank you Grandma Grover for the food storage! and Thanks to Rick and Chan for the little people Barn!  Also thanks to all who sent money for my Birthday or Christmas! Just so you know I put it all together and got an ipod Touch! Yea! I love it! We had a great Christmas, but we sure did miss Family! We love you all!
