Christ's Day

It still amazes me that we celebrate Christmas with such craziness... we get presents when it is Christ's day.  The kids got 3 main presents from us (if 3 presents are good enough for Jesus on his birthday, then it should be good enough for our family!!)

 
 
 






 The kids went shopping with us for each other and bought with their own money what they thought their sibs would like.  Katelin got Tye a fire engine (he always says he wants to be a fireman race car driver...).  She got Jax a garbage truck (he loves to watch the trash truck pick up the garbage at our house.   The first thing Jax did was put some wrapping paper trash in the back of the garbage truck!!  Clever boy....   

 Katelin also bought Granddad some camo slippers and Nana some cozy socks.

 
Tye bought Jax a motorcycle track.
 Nana bought Katelin an tooth fairy pillow and she actually lost a tooth on Christmas day to put in the pillow!!
 

We got Katelin and Tye big kid bikes.  They had to go on a scavenger hunt through the house, outside, upstairs, and down to the basement to find them.
 Jax got a train table.
 Nana and Granddad gave the kids a driver's license for their very own Jeep, just like Granddad's!!  The license comes complete with a set of driving rules.

 Jax being compliant with the rules so he doesn't loose his license...
 The damage...
 Meg and Nana made a great meal, ready on the table when I got home from work!!

Welcome to our new blog! We thought this would be a fun way to share our pictures and lives with family and friends. Thanks for visiting. Enjoy!
Katelin celebrated her first birthday at her grandparents' house in Round Rock. We grilled hamburgers and had cake and homemade ice cream.

We went to the Grand Canyon for our vacation this year. We stayed in Sedona, Arizona. The mule ride was great fun! We suggest everyone seeing the Grand Canyon at least once in a lifetime.
