Merry Christmas!

Kevin up and ready for Christmas morning!

Maya is ready too!

making a mess with the wrapping paper!

Loved the pearls Kevin got me!

Maya was helping to open gifts too!

Kevin doesnt believe it! I told him not to expect a tablet and gave him a hard timr then wrapped it ina box full of heavey things so he could guess what it was! Every year he knows what he is getting because he can guess well. Not this year I had him fooled!

He was very excited about his new Kindle Fire!

Then mom and John came over for lunch we had a nice time with them!

they opened their gift from us. We are all going to take a trip to an east coast beach for a week!

Then we went to mom and dad's house to make cookies with everyone!

we were all festive in out hats and aprons!

aunt Jo had fun with this crazy crowd!

Tommy sporting the abominable snowman headband!

yay cookies!

Aunt Judy with the toppings!

Mom did a swell job baking!

all the men watched Mr Poppers Penguins!

Aeris waiting for the fun part...

I was too...

the sugar cookie dough from the fridge was too hard to roll out so Kari did the honors of sitting on it as a quick defrost.
We all had a good laugh!

so many cookies!

cheese!

Aeris had fun making cookies and a mess!

ha ha!

Nette is so adorable!

Daddy looking in on the craziness!

We did a "House Hop" progressive dinner this year suggested by aunt Judy and it was so much fun!! The Felger's house was first with appetizers and telephone pictionary, then mom and dad's for the main course, Kari's house for hot cocoa and gag gifts, and the Knapp's for dessert and karaoke!

Amy was able to visit too!

pretty girl!

Black tree at Kari's house. so pretty!
