Christmas Snow

Christmas has come and went now, but the snow I think will be sticking around for a long time. We had a great Christmas this year. I'm not a big Christmas person but having Carson has changed that. She makes everything funner. Christmas Eve we headed to Peru to do the Becker side Christmas. Debbie made some great food and Jeff's cousin's and grandparents came over to open presents. Then we headed to Jeff's uncle's house to see the rest of the family and Carson and Isabella got to play together. It was a great time and Carson was such a trooper she had only gotten a hour nap and didn't go to bed until we left about 10:30pm.
We also got to skype Jason and Chaille and watch Ava open up some presents.


Then Santa came Christmas morning. Carson's favorite gift was her Dora chair. She sat in it and opened the rest of her gifts. Yogi also likes his new bed. We headed to Glasford later in the day and braved the weather. It actually wasn't to bad. We had a blast at Aunt Debi's house. When we were kids the house we knew we would have a blast at was Aunt Debi's house and nothing has changed. The kids have so much fun there and Aunt Debi always has fun things for them to do. The adults have toys to play with too. hahaha!

Then the major snow came and then it was time to get outside and let Carson really play in it for the first time. Last year she was to little to understand what was going on but we though this year she would get into it. She didn't like it at first but after a nap and lunch we took her back out and she loved it. Enjoy the pictures!

Christmas weekend

This last weekend was full of Christmas fun. Our household has been a little on the ill side but got better for the Christmas joy. Saturday we had the Butler side Christmas I believe there was 35 or so people there. There was 7 kids under the age of 3. So that just explains how much fun we had. There was no major fights and all the kids seemed to get along so that was good.


Then Sunday we had Christmas at our house with my mom and sisters, and there kids. It was so great to have everyone together. The kids just played with all the toy's and us adults enjoyed a little conversation. It was great to see everyone open there gifts. Right now I would have to say Reese is the best to watch. Her eyes get so big when she really like a gift. Carson and Boh really don't know what is going on so they just basically went off on there own to play. Bella being 10 and all basically already knows what she is getting but still has a good time.
It is great to spend time with the family during the holiday season.
