Christmas and new years

Well christmas was fun this year. It was coltons first christmas, he didnt do much but sleep next year will be way more fun. This year we had christmas eve with my family it was so much fun. First we had dinner which was super yummy. Then while we cleaned up all the kids decorated christmas cookies or should i say frosting cookies dang they loved that frosting. All the kids got ready for the nativity story that they acted out it and colton was baby jesus, it was so cute. Then it was time for the cousin exchange with presents colton got a new outfit, thanks aunt april. Then it was onto opening presents from grammie and papa colton got formula cause that stuff is so dang expensive and it helped us out. Thanks grammie and papa. Then we got a surprise visit from santa. Andrews dad has the whole get up of santa the outfit and the sleigh to go along with it. The kids were so excited and so happy that he was there. santa handed out some goodie bags full of candy to each kid. It was so much fun.

Christmas day we opened a few presents from each other andrew got me a necklace with coltons birthstone on it, it meant a lot, thanks babe i love you. Andrew got some hats that he has been hinting about and the dark night movie. We then got ready to go over to andrews parents house to have christmas breakfast it was so good especially when you dont have to cook it. Then we opened presents and hung out with the family.

Well new years was good we hung out at home most of the day and then went to my sisters house and ate dinner and had a fire pit and root beer floats. it was cold i know but it was really good. Then we went to andrews sister in laws house and played games and ate more food. i swear i gained like 10 pounds this christmas i felt thats all i did was eat. but worth it. then when it was time for the countdown all the kids that were there got pots and pans and went outside and was banging them around and also there were some of their neighbors setting off fireworks so we watched that as well. I was so tired at that point so we packed up and went home.

2008 was a good year to our family especially the new addition, it wouldnt be the same without him. I hope that everyone had a good christmas and new year. Here are some pictures that i took i dont have any new years ones cause my cameras battery died.
