A wonderful Christmas

We've been remodeling the house for the past few months. It was mostly all completed just before Christmas. Here is a picture of our beautiful new mantle. I just love a fireplace and mantle, especially at Christmas!!! I wish I had gotten a picture with the fire burning! Isn't it just homey and warm looking!


We were lucky enough to have the whole family home for Christmas. It was really fun to have the little boys here on Christmas morning. When we
got up on Chrismas morning we caught Santa putting gifts under the tree! Matthew and Gavin will be believers for life!
















Gaving got to experience snow!!! Pretty fun for a little guy from Las Vegas. He even got to get all new snow clothes. We're hoping that means they will visit us more this winter so they can get their moneys worth out of them!


Of course GrandPa couldn't limit the gift giving to Christmas day... He had to drag out new surprises several times a day during the week! He is a shameless spoiler!
Matthew is obsessed with transformers. Once he saw that Santa had left him a couple of transformers he didn't even care to open more presents.

It is very sad that Shanda (our baby) is now sixteen and a junior in high school. But of course at our house you have to believe in Santa or he doesn't come.... so of course she still believes!

Christmas is always so exciting for Logan (Yes.. that hairy beast is my sweet son!). He really gets into the spirit of Christmas. He decorates his car, his room, his sneakers, he even makes a new themed wreath each Christmas! He Loves It! But after all the excitement even he had all that he could take!

Yeah! Go mom! I'm so glad you have a blog. We'll keep ours up if you'll keep yours up!

Yay! You have a blog! Matthew is really missing you guys, so this will be great!

Love the hairy beastie photo of Logan, haha. Thanks for not posting any of me. (No, seriously.)

Tammy: You are a saint as is your husband. As for your bearded "son" "Logan", I'm not buying that one for a moment. I suspect his real name is Akhmed or Ali. Expect a visit from Homeland Security once I clue them in.

Btw, where is the refrigerator going to go?
