lotsa, lotsa Christmas pictures!!

Our family tradition is to celebrate big on Christmas Eve... thus the large amount of pictures from last night and very few from today.  It might also be because we are still in our pj's at 6 pm and I never even bothered to comb my hair.   Just maybe.

Hello World!



Shea and Braden with their Zhu Zhu pets
this was the first year that my kids didn't want any toys.
That just wasn't right so I got them all fake rodents.
made sense in my tiny brain.

We spent today playing Funglish, Settlers of Catan (I only lost by ONE point to the evil professor!!) and trying out the pogo stick.  Eating leftovers and hot chocolate and having a fabulous family time.
