Braces, Gingerbread, Christmas and Disc

December 21st - December 27th:

On December 23rd, Joshua had braces put on his teeth.  I searched through my photo library and could not find a picture of him smiling with his teeth showing, so I am going to have to search Ryan's photos or try and take one. The little nerd refuses to smile.

On December 24th, we went and had dinner with Ryan's family and Zach and Melissa's house.  We had a great time visiting with them and Jay and Tauna who also came.  The kiddos had a great time playing with their cousins.

We also decorated our gingerbread house for the season.  The kiddos had a great time decorating and eating candy.


The kiddos (Well everyone but Morgan) were up and ready to open gifts on Christmas Day at 5:30 in the morning.  Emily even caught Joshua sitting by his stocking trying to find out what Santa had put inside.  We made them go back to bed and wait until 6:30 to come out of there rooms.

Merry Christmas from our family to yours.



After presents were opened and most of them put together,  Grandma Jean Ann and Grandpa Chris, and Uncle Randy's family all came over for Christmas dinner.  We had a great time visiting and the kiddos loved showing/sharing their presents with everyone.
