Christmas this year was a good one. It was just our little family and it really was a nice and peaceful time together. Christmas Eve was spent having dinner at Chili's. The kids thought that was awesome and I loved not having to mess with the clean up.
As always, the kids got the traditional Christmas Eve pj's.
We put together not one but two Christmas puzzles this year. Always a fun tradition in our home!
This is the first year in our married life that we haven't traveled to Idaho to cut down our own tree. The kids were bummed about that but our schedules this year just didn't allow us to get up there. So we went to a tree lot and found a real beauty. Unfortunately the tree died only after two weeks. Blah. Hopefully this will be the only time we have to buy one. You can't beat cutting them down yourselves. The fresher the better!
A trashed house is a happy house! We spent the whole break hanging out in our pj's and just being together and playing with the new toys. I loved every minute of it!
Here are the kids with their favorite toys. Macy got an iPod.
Blake "loves' his Star Wars video game.
And even today Tyler can't get enough of his set of Toy Story toys. He plays with them everyday and even sleeps with them at night.

Wish I could have been there to play with you all!
I love that you left your house trashed for a week - how LIBERATING!! And how fun!
Lol, Lindsay it was only left trashed on Christmas and got cleaned up the very next day. I don't think I could let it go for a whole week. That would drive me nuts!
Fun traditions, fun toys, fun kids, fun family time. I am glad you guys had a great Christmas. Bummer about the tree but it still looked awesome!
