Abram started it off by showing one of his new moves . . . the splits.
The only picture of all five of them. Next year . . . EIGHT!
Abram got a garbage truck!
One of the first presents someone opened was in a big box of packing peanuts. Greysen and Abram were in heaven. They sat in that box and played for so long. Just yesterday my dad told me his favorite part of Christmas was "two boys in a box of peanuts." It was pretty cute.
Trying on Grey's fireman hat.
The peanuts made for great things to load and dump with Abram's new diggers.
Abram and Greysen went through a stage a few months ago where they usually only fought when they were together. Not any more. They are like two peas in a pod and follow each other around. They love to do what the other one is doing . . . such as hiding under the dessert table!

Jason's mom made the girls adorable hats! 
Yes, that would be my dad. Again, the goggles made an appearance. But not on the little boy who got them as a gift! Welcome to my family.
The siblings.
After we opened presents, my mom was bound and determined to go sledding. So, all the guys, the kids and mom went. Kate and I went later to "take pictures."
We did take pictures, but we also got in on the sledding action. It was SO FUN! I have not gone sledding for way over a decade. Even the little monkey went sledding . . . and liked it.
Kate was H.I.L.A.R.I.O.U.S on her first ride down. She hit two unexpected bumps (going off the edge of the sand bunker -we were at the Huxley golf course) and looked like she was riding a horse, flapping her arms like they were holding reigns. And then she landed like this. Hysterical!

Miss bundled-up-Mya Kate.
Sydney was too cold and back home by the time we go there. And Greysen was sleeping. We all decided sledding will definitely become an annual Christmas tradition (as long as there is snow!).
All-in-all, it was a wonderful Christmas!
