Wow, it is kind of sad that Christmas has come and gone once again. We are swimming in the aftermath of presents, wrapping paper, ribbons, and leftovers once again. We have spent all day so far trying to make sense of all the chaos and get a little organized. We have been semi successful with a lot more to go. I still have to get my trees and decorations packed away before Ryan’s birthday on Monday.
We had a wonderful Christmas and everyone is very happy. We had a lot of time with family and we ate a ton. Good thing I got Wii active so I can get back on the program! I did my first workout this morning, it just about kicked my butt!!
Here is a pictorial of our Christmas, enjoy!
Christmas Eve at Grandma Rison’s
Lance was thrilled with his kitchen timer! His teacher has one and he loves it!!
All those toys and all three of them wanted darn kitchen timers:)
Here goes picture taking of the 3 kids…
Almost got it…
Nope, Oh Well. They did look mighty cute though!
Sprinkling magic reindeer dust
We decided to leave tea for Santa since he gets milk everywhere else:)
Nighty Night!
Christmas Morning
Look what Santa left for Lance
Another kitchen timer:)
look what Santa left for Ryan
A Whoo Whoo Thing, hooray!
7am wake up…after the 1:30am wake up. Yes, 1:30am. Lance crawled into our bed and said, “Mommy, Santa brought my fire station” I looked at the clock and said, “Oh honey it is still night time go back to sleep for a little while” He did in our bed and we got up at 7, whew, thank goodness!
He was in seventh heaven:)
Ryan liked Lance’s fire station and Lance liked Ryan’s super why costume…go figure!
The Gangs all here
Everyone loved their gifts, collage frames of the Gimmel’s and Matteson’s
Monogrammed scarves made by Aunt Lisa!

We ALL also got a weekend trip to PA for snow tubing in January, I can’t wait!!!! Thanks mom and dad for a great Christmas!
Breakfast and dinner was at my house which I love!
Magician Lance put on a magic show following dinner

It’s going to take me forever to figure out all the new powers and levels!!!
