Christmas 2008!

Christmas was great this year. We had such a good time. The kids are at a great age and loved everything about it this year. Christmas eve, we started the morning at Granny's for the Stephens Family Christmas. The kids had a great time playing with their cousin Lincoln. Then on to Nana & Poppa's for Christmas with them. Last stop was The Finley's for Christmas Eve dinner. It was fabulous!! We finally got home in time to set out our milk, cookies and reindeer food just before it was time for bed. Christmas morning was exciting. The kids were so fired up about all their stuff. They were all about opening presents this year. They wanted most of their stuffed wrapped up. So that is what we and Santa worked out! :) After we opened gifts, we got ready and headed to Gommer and Poptart's for brunch and more Christmas. The kids again had a great time and got more great gifts to add to the collection that we had already accumulated. Nana and Poppa came back over Christmas night to see what the kids got! Next we had our neighbors and friends Jake and Sophie over for our little Christmas. I think the kids had more fun just getting to play together than they did opening the gifts. :) Last we headed to Memphis to have Christmas just one more time with my family. We always give gift cards to Target and then all go shopping together. The kids LOVE it. We had a great time just getting to hang out with all the cousins. Thanks to everyone for all the great gifts. I am in the process of cleaning out so that we can find room for all the new toys!! :)



Early Christmas from Aunt Barbie and Uncle Larry!!
THANKS A BUNCH!!

At Nana and Poppa's, they had to go on a scavenger hunt for their present!

Caymin had to go outside.

Carson had to go downstairs.
But they finally found them! Do you think they look excited? :)

Yea, we got a DS! Caymin says now she will not be the ONLY kid in WHOLE school that does not have a DS! ha :) At least that was her reason why she HAD to have one!!
