Best Christmas yet!

This year was our first year to

'go home for Christmas'

which was exciting to load up

and head home with the kids &

new puppy in tow
{Callie, our puppy is a mess...and I'm so thankful

for my Dad & Kelly keeping her at their house :)}

We had several 'family Christmas' to attend,

Our first stop was Friday night at my Dad's house!

Molly shared her 'Santa diapers' with Ethan,

He LOVED them!

Auntie Tyfani & the kids

Ethan's FAVORITE toy!

{he calls everything with wheels

a car-car :) it's pretty cute!}

Dad LOVED getting everyone together!

Josh & Molly opening presents

{Molly cleaned up...I've never seen

so many toys for one little girl!}

The girls both got a Cabbage Patch

doll that looked like them!

Next stop, Mammy & Poppy's!!

Ethan went strait to the 'car-cars'...

Lighting McQueen to be exact :)

{Ethan's 1st obsession, the movie, Cars!}

I've been wondering when he'd pick something up!

The girls got their very own keyboard

{complete with microphone!}

And, a backup mic with drums!

Emma jamming out to

'Grandma got run over by a reindeer'

A snow-globe!!

amidst the chaos of the girls opening

their gifts, Ethan found his stocking stuffer

candy and was going crazy!

{Poppy caught him in the act, but let him

continue & decided to video it, finally, Mommy

noticed and 4 candy bars later, grabbed his stock pile!}

While we were opening gifts, it was snowing

BIG snowflakes! It was the PERFECT White Christmas!

Macaroni {Aaron} got the girls a smore's kit!

Ethan & his bomber jacket from

Mammy & Poppy from Colorado!

Barbie backpack for months...
