Christmas Time means Laughter

We had a great Christmas weekend. Phil was off the whole weekend which is nice, considering we aren't always so lucky.
For Christmas Eve we went to Phil's Aunts for dinner. It was his Aunt's family, his Mom and Dad, Grandparents Miss, BJM(2) and us. We had a delicious dinner of soups in bread bowls and enjoyed each others company. Brigs enjoyed a Lofthouse cookie (or more so the frosting) for dinner among his other yummy choices (pretzels, fruit snacks and milk) Also note Koen's preferred faces in most of the pics, I opted to join him one time.










After we got done there we headed home to put the boys to bed. Britton and Brady came with us to hang out and play some games.  Our fam opened the traditional Christmas jammies and made some cookies for Santa.




Missy came over too and we had a fabulous time playing some new games B&B had. Miss left and the other  2 helped us deliver the goods. Santa was good to us this year.
I felt like I was a child that night and hardly sleep at all. I think I was just so excited for Koen. I woke up and started reading my self some what at 8:30 since no one else was up. Koen came in close to 9 and had momentarily forgot it was Christmas. Then he remembered and couldn't get down here soon enough. Lucky for him B woke up so after seeing how I wouldn't let him miss it like last year. Brigs sweet sleepy face, I couldn't resist posting it. Also have to get a pic on the stairs.

I hate that I didn't have Phil on camera duty cause I was more interested in videoing Koen's reaction and didn't take many pics. boo...heres what we have.





After we opened presents and ate breakfast we headed to Phil's parents house for the day. We always have a good time spending the day there. Opening gifts, reading Christmas letters, and chatting the day away.






Nothing like the holidays and spending time with the people who are important to us! It was such ha great Christmas.
