In an effort to not get behind (due to so many great pics:) Mommy is posting lots of pis with minimal text:)
The kiddos opening a gift from Grandma Pat and Grandpa Roger on Monday. Thank you!!!
LOOK where Elvin, the Elf on the Shelf ended up! Ayson wanted Mommy to take a picture and send to is First grade teacher, Mrs Zehner:) Never mind Addie's hair, it does not get brushed until she is sitting down and eating breakfast :)
Mommy attended the holiday sing (Thanks Neighbor Jo for telling Mommy to make time for this informal program at school :)
Both kiddos sat on Mommy's lap...boy, was it HOT in the cafeteria with all of those people AND Santa!!!

The kids had great expressions on their faces while Daddy read aloud the letter :)
A walk in the orchard on Christmas Eve (to get some fresh air AND tire the kids out ;)
Look at the hives!!!

All smiles now that she is playing (and not walking)
Zoom in on this picture...Ayson is trying very hard not to smile!
Sprinkling reindeer food on the front lawn:)
The kiddos and Daddy and Mason watching movies
Mommy's four loves :)
Funny story: The kids were mostly good on Friday and Saturday and were told that IF they did not behave that Santa would NOT bring them the gifts that they asked for.
Well, Daddy "asked' for a new garbage can (last week he cut his hand on the lid on our metal trash can) and during an instance when Daddy was rough housing with Addie, Addie stated "I will tell Santa to NOT bring you the trash can that you asked for" hahahahahahahaha!!!
The kiddos next to the treats and their Santa lists (Santa only brought three big gifts for the kids...Mommy/Daddy and friends/family give the rest)
The kids seeing the Grandparents gift for the first time: a star projector! thanks, Grandmas and Grandpas!!!!
Addie was out soon after her head hit the pillow BUT Ayson would NOT go to sleep!
Santa left notes on the lists...the Turbo Charger (a robot toy) could not be fixed :(
Ayson woke us up at 5:30...sigh. At least he lets us sleep in on regular weekends :)
The kiddos playing with their robot dog and cat :)
Addie playing with the doll house while Daddy puts together the racing track
Mason, Daddy, and Ayson
The "loop de loop" and Legos (and the "BaCoN" periodic table shirt that Mommy gave to Daddy)!
Addie working on a craft toy
Mommy had asked Daddy if Santa should put together the Robot Arm toy BEFORE Christmas and Daddy said no, Hahaha..it took Daddy at least 4 hours to put the Robot Arm together.
Mommy' and Daddy's gift from the kids was to go on a hike with NO complaining. We went to Tinker Falls!
While taking this photo, Mommy thought "hmm, the kids should not be in the water even though the water is only 2 inches deep"...well, Addie slipped and got her leg wet (and cold)...So, we went home early :)
Almost done!
TaDa!
