Christmas 2010

The first thing I saw on Christmas

All lit up on Christmas morning

Some stockings, and Amy very tired while opening gifts.

The mess we make.

The happiest face that morning!

Chilling

Me in my new snuggie

Amy opening one of her big gifts.

Just a bit tired.

Still happy! The first thing she found in her stocking was a little reeses peanut butter cup and she exclaimed "MOM!!!! I have ALWAYS wanted one of THESE!!"

Nathan and his new Nerf gun.

Ben and his nerf machine gun.

The girls in their new snuggies, on their pillowpets, holding their webkinz owls.

****Points For Presents****

Mia

She got two bumblebee skirts so she wore one as a top.

Adam was amazed at something!

Amy wearing the wig someone got her!

Jenna, looking a bit skeptical at the gift she is opening

JD and Bub have this thing where they get each other gross gifts, last year Aaron got JD a block of cheese which he forgot to put in the fridge, it was gross, this year JD got payback and bought a dead fish (yes a real one) and surprised Bub with it! Above is his response to that.

The fish is on his far left, he was sitting as far away as possible.

Nathan is always very humorous to watch!

Dewey got a kick out of the toilet paper Kenny bought him!

It's always a risky experience opening gifts from 10 silly siblings!

Kenny's gift from Aaron.

JD

Ben had a good laugh that night too!

Merry Christmas everyone! I know it's pretty late, I have been having laptop issues so I haven't been able to update my blog in a while. Every year our traditions are:

Wake up and open stockings, which are filled with small gifts and candy.

Play with the things we got in our stockings and have a fun family filled morning.

Eat breakfast, then clean up wrapping paper and boxes, then open big gifts (which we have three of) The rest of the day we chill and have a fun day just being together.

Then at night we do point for presents! This is where we work to earn points to get presents for each of our siblings, We spend about a dollar per sibling. Most of the things we get each other are jokes so the entire night is filled with laughter!

Thank you God for providing for our family so we can continue to do these traditions.

With Love, Anna
