Long Christmas Post

Christmas was really fun, the kids understand it more and more every year. So they really got into Santa, and our elf Buddy that comes to keep an eye on us during December...sometimes I wish Buddy was around all year, he's a great discipline tool:)
Anyway, we spent Christmas Eve with the Wakefields and it was chaos like usual! With 12 grandkids it gets pretty noisy and wild, but the kids love it. Marley just loves her cousin Jake and always wants to sit with him.

Before going home to bed we stopped at the Love's to get our traditional jammies, here's all the guys in theirs pretending to be Utes cheerleaders.
Christmas morning we woke up and did presents with our little family. Santa brought the kids a new kitchen, table and chairs and a bunch of other awesome toys! But don't worry, the favorite toys were the little dinky things Santa put in their stockings, go figure:

Marley playing in the new kitchen
Tate displaying some new airplanes he got
Jord with all his new xbox crap....why I keep getting him that stuff I don't knowAfter lunch we went to the Love's and Wakefield's for more presents!
Grandma Love gave Tate a motor scooter....he was so excited all he would do for a picture was this atrocious face
Marley playing in the scooter box of courseAnd last but not least, Spiderman is in the house! Tate's really into dressing up these days, so he wore this the rest of the day....and the next couple days after:)

That is so funny....sometimes it's the little things that make you so excited. Like a box or a purple impression thingey!

Koen is the same way with dressing up! After Halloween I bought him a bunch of costumes. Ok so I have to say your Love family reminds me of our Olsen family...al T-ville Alum! haha
