CHRISTMAS EVE PJ'S

CHRISTMAS EVE PJ'S
Then we came home and opened up our new PJ's and put them on and watched The Christmas Story, that is one of my all time favorite Christmas movie. Then the kids willingly went to bed so that we could play Santa.










CHRISTMAS MORNING!
The boys woke us up at 6:15! Doug and I didn't get to bed until 2, so we were really tired! They were so excited and i worried that one of them might not be happy, well i was right, we had a little issue, but in the end he realized he got a good Christmas. One year i will get it right, but really i think they are so spoiled, i hope they realize how lucky they are. The issue was Josh wanted an Iphone, Haden wanted an Itouch and Tyler wanted a Ipod Nano. We got Josh an Iphone(Used), but Josh already had an Itouch so we gave Haden Josh's Itouch and Tyler got Hadens Nano, so Haden felt that since we didnt have to buy it, it shouldn't count as a gift, i was super upset with him we had a talk about it and hopefully he gets it. There was no reason to buy new ones when these were in perfectly good condition, and i did mention to him, just cause we didn't pay for them for Christmas, we still paid for them so i don't really understand what the issue was. He felt bad for feeling that way and so did i, but we got over it.(no wonder Christmas stresses me out!) Josh was extremely happy and he even said i think i got too much, so at least one of them is starting to get it! One of the highlights of Christmas was a pinball machine we got, it is an old 1975 pinball game called El Dorado, it is a nice change of pace from all the electronic devices we have all over the house. I think Doug and I like it the most, but that's okay, gives me something to play when everyone is watching football:)











CHRISTMAS DINNER

After a nice a relaxing morning, we headed back over to my parents house for Christmas dinner. My mom had the table all set up so beautiful, and everyone brought something to contribute for the dinner. Everything tasted so good! I was a much more relaxed person, Christmas was offically over with and i wont have to worry about it again for another year! Hopefully next year i can be in better spirits and have a better attitude towards everything, cause i really do love Christmas time!
