Christmas and New Year


We had an awesome Christmas this year. On Christmas Eve we kept with our tradition of having Christmas dinner with a big group of friends. While we were gone, the elves dropped off our new pajamas (Ryan just got slippers)


The next morning we opened stockings, had breakfast (the traditional sticky buns) the opened presents. Hayden loved opening presents. She was too busy playing to get a picture with all of her stuff so here's one of her stocking loot.


(My cute little Cole Bear. Don't you just want to kiss him!)
Then we headed to my brothers and had a yummy ham dinner with all the fixings. The kids got to make gingerbread houses and the adults played games. It was a very fun and relaxing day. It's so fun watching the kids and feeling their excitement.


We headed back to my brother's for New Years. We had more games and food. We celebrated with New York and let the kids bang some pots. A great time was had by all.


So, that is how we ended the year of 2009. It was a great year for us, especially with the addition of Cole to our family. We are looking forward to many more good times this year. Welcome 2010!!
