Christmas!

On Christmas Eve we had Chads family over, we finally have a place big enough for parties. We do soups and breadsticks on Christmas Eve and I made my Carrot Chowder. Yes, it sounds nasty but believe me the picky eater it is Very Good, and Chads mom made her homemade chicken noodle soup. We then let the kids open their Christmas Eve present and they were very excited... After everyone left we let the kids open their pajamas and we loaded them into the van to drive around town looking at Christmas Lights. Mainly, it was to waste some time! We then went home and got the kids to bed. Me and Chad did our Preparations for the morning, we forgot to leave Santa his pecan pie, but he found the cookies. When the kids got up and went downstairs to see if Santa had come they had lots of Fun seeing all that they got. Shelby got a Mp3 player, a bookcase, a lava lamp and a few more things. Dakota got a whole bunch of Star Wars stuff since that is what he is into as of now and a Scooter and a few other things. Savanah got a baby doll and a lot of Tinker Bell stuff. Dallas got a Hot Wheels City track and a Thomas the train track. Samantha got a food set a baby doll and a lot of Tinker Bell stuff along with Savanah. They had fun enjoying their toys for quite a while. Later in the afternoon we went to my parents to open gifts. It is so crazy there since we have so many people in one room trying to open presents. Standing room only basically. We then came home to a nice Turkey dinner. We had a great Christmas but I am so glad that it is over.
