Christmas

Yay! Our first Christmas as a family of 5! I remember last Christmas morning, Zac kissed my belly- giving his sisters a Christmas kiss! This year we had 4 days of family fun- Thursday-Sunday! I'm going to do a post for each day, since I took so many pictures. On Christmas day we went to my in-laws. Seven grandchildren opening presents in the living room is all I have to say! Next year will be even crazier, with the girls walking and talking! Luckily, just a few weeks ago we had to get new tires for my Jeep. I complained about the expense right before Christmas, but am glad that we got it done! The Jeep had no problems in the snow. After leaving my in-laws, there's a hill you have to go up. My brother-in-law and his girlfriend got stuck half-way up in her little car. Almost funny! They ended up backing up, turning around, and going a different way. We were behind them, so we followed them to the highway to make sure they didn't have any more problems.

My 3 little blessings! Val-right.

Stockings hung in a row.

Good Morning and Merry Christmas sleepy-head!

Zac has been ready to go outside in the snow, but Dad kept layering on clothes! We had to be white trash and put Ziploc bags over his shoes since we didn't have snow boots. Ryan has a picture when he was Zac's age- of the same thing! Hahahaha!

Weeeee! Going down the hill!

Ok, I think Zac's cold now!

He's ready to go inside... NOW!
