Christmas #1

Today we went with my mom and dad to Collinsville to have Christmas with Brian, Lacey, and Abbey. It was SO much fun to have a little get together like this so the girls could open presents and play all afternoon. We were trying to get a good pic of the girls together but this is about as good as it gets to get them both next to eachother, just forget about getting them both to look at you and smile! What little cuties!

Before lunch was ready, we let the girls start opening their presents. Of course Abbey went nuts over the little frogs and turtles she got!

She also got a set of musical instruments and had fun learning how to use the harmonica!

Mckayla loved this penguin guy that was sitting by their front door and would light up and change colors. She kept leaving the presents to go look at him!

Then she climbed around in this tiny little rocking chair by their Christmas tree

The girls did spend a little time together playing with presents

Lacey made Papa his own stocking!
And Mimi got an apron labeled "Cookie Maker" and a little one for the "Cookie Taster" to help her with her baking!

We got Abbey this play Birthday cake that the pieces are velcro so you can have the whole cake with the candle in the middle or tear them apart to serve the pieces. She LOOOVED it!
She decided to throw a little birthday party for her froggies
She even sang to them!!!!
She gave this frog and turtle their own pieces of cake!

Then she got out her little bowls and set up a party for baby bear! She put a piece of cake in a bowl at all 4 spots at the table. She's just too stinkin cute!

The birthday bear! She also got a bottle and even put a little water in it for him!
This was the best gift by far though...Brian and Lacey got Chris this calendar called Farming Life. Lacey has bought him calendars in the past and I forgot to mention that he doesn't need them anymore so when he opened it we were so scared because not only was it another calendar, it was pretty much the most STUPID calendar I've ever seen! We were both so in shock by the horribleness of the calendar that we just sat there speechless, praying that would say it was a joke. After a minute of leaving us hanging they laughed and said the real gift is inside so he opened it up and there was a Best Buy gift card. We were sooooo relieved! It was freakin hilarious though!

Daddy and Mckayla

Thank you everyone for the gifts and a WONDERFUL day together!

Wow! You are fast! I haven't even uploaded my pics yet! I'll send them your way when I get to them. I didn't take nearly as many as you did though. You got some great ones! It's funny to see so many pics of my house on someone else's blog! I'm glad I cleaned it! :)

I'm SO glad you guys decided to come today! It just wouldn't have been the same without you! And thank you again Chris, for being such a good sport about your gag gift! I haven't laughed that hard in a long time!
