Christmas 2014

We spent Christmas Eve here at home.  It was supposed to be a nice evening with our family......
 I started the day making waseal.  I have never in my life attempted to make it, but was told it would make my house smell good.  So I gave it a whirl.  I did not make my house smell good, and Jason said it was a waste of good apple cidar, but I thought is was tasty. 
 The kids wanted to do something special, so we set the table all fancy.  Then Jason called and said he had invited a family of 6 to spend the evening with us.  What?  Change of plans.  We had to clean the house and come up with extra table settings, and food.  Then after the kids had waited for 45 minutes from when they were suposed to be here.  They showed up, and had already eaten.  Lets just say that was about how the rest of the night was and leave it at that. 
Here are the kids in there jammies.  I made them all pretend that they were sleeping, because Beckett really did fall asleep. 
The Big Day.  We opened presents, Truman got a train set.  I think this the only picture I got where Jason wasn't in it too.  Jason loves himself a train set!
Dillon got a tablet.  He was pretty happy about that.  You can see the carnage in the background.
Beckett got a scooter..the picture is blurry, because I never could get him to sit still with it.
Elleree got a Barbie Doll house, that is bigger than she is.
Christmas is always hard for me.  I worry that the kids will be disappointed with what they got.  I anticipation is always out of control.  I think we did pretty good.
These are my bird house and bird feeder.  They are so cute.  I also got a treadmill, love it!  Jason got a universal remote that works through walls.  If you have been to our house you know why.
This was my favorite present though.  Elleree made this huge poster it is so cute!  
After we opened our presents we packed up and headed to Victor/Driggs where Jason's family rented a cabin for us.
