where to start...

First let's start with, we know my children have issues right? Don't think that they act this way and then I grab the camera to candidly capture these moments... no no fellow bloggers... they actually get dressed like this, bring me the camera and say, take pictures mom. So here you have it - a couple days before Christmas:



Then it snowed again... a lot. No talking crap to mother nature right now, I'll try and keep it positive. Jaden had fun, so I guess this time I'll let it pass:


Christmas morning:


...which by the way, was way too early. The boys woke me up at 6... I said try again when you see actual sunlight. So about 30 short minutes later we started opening presents. And then, umm, back to sleepy time for me, while they did this all morning:

Did I say all morning? All morning.
But they do love it, Rock Band for the Wii. Highly recommended.

Then over to friends house for early dinner, umm hello, how else are we supposed to eat good dinner?! Tosha, thank you again, as always.


Then over to another friends house to enjoy family time with them... nice to have when we're so far away from our own family. We would have stayed there later but the boys wanted to get back home to play Rock Band... of course. But we had a good time... Thank you again for welcoming us.

Oh, and finally got a decent picture for the New Year's cards. They have been ordered and are on the way... Yay.


Hope you all had an amazing holiday as well!

Boys are exciting, and LOUD! Mine tried to get us up at 5 am. I made them sleep in until 6:30. I threatened to make them wait until stateside time if they didn't get back to bed!
