Christmas Eve started with a yummy breakfast from Chick Fil A. I know. Not very Christmas-y. But Andy got up and went to the gym at 5:30am (yes he is nuts) and came home with the yummy grub for the rest of us.
Eva and Blake sat on the couch sharing. It was pretty cute although I don’t think Blake likes to be fed by Eva
We started an art project that Gramma sent us
The cookies, oh so good
Eva sneaks up on her sleeping Grandpa
My best gift this year? An afghan made by my mama
Christmas morning- woke up to a little guy who slept in my bed with me- at 6am he stood straight up in the middle of our bed and said- it’s time for presents!! Lay down, was all Andy said and he was back snoozing again within seconds.
We got up closer to 8:30 or so and the chaos began
You can take the girl outta Texas….
Checking out his new iPad
It’s only day 3 with this plasma car and we have already gotten our monies worth. We bought the car for Cole and Eva but everyone has been riding on it and I do mean everyone
This is why I love my kitchen
We made smores with our new mashmellow sticks
Eva got a puppy purse from Gramma and she cracks us up carrying it around. All of a sudden she is very into shoes, bracelets, and purses.
She stole some of Cole’s army men and stuffed them inside
Andy took the older boys and a friend out to dinner and to the OSU basketball game while I am home with the two younger ones. I actually don’t mind. It’s freezing outside and we are gonna snuggle on the couch with popcorn and watch a movie.
Night night!

I love all the photos! Eva is getting so big and growing so much. TIme has really flown by. Seems like you were just in Utah!
Your tree is beautiful too! What did you edit those last few pictures with? They look great.

Not the last few photos but the ones in the kitchen. Sorry.

Elisa ~ that afghan is gorgeous. perfect for snugglin & movies.
i love the Cole’s note from Santa. We totally forgot about milk & cookies for him. I realized it when we were tucking them in, told them, our oldest said “that’s okay” & the younger one couldn’t even open his eyes. So I didn’t press the issue. So glad Cole took care of SC!

Great Christmas! I love those plasma cars. They are SO cool. It looks like you guys had a great Christmas. My parents got an iPad each from their boss. How crazy is that?? They are so spoiled. 🙂

I really enjoyed the pictures. Looks like you guys had a fantastic Christmas. LOVE the afgan. Your momma should make those and sell them. Seriously. I’d buy. 🙂
