Four Jingle Bells

Spencer wanted real chocolate from Europe and Santa delivered German chocolate. He ate the whole thing in the morning. We had church at 10, so we let the kids open stockings.  They did fine with a later Christmas morning. Family picture before church. William was so fun this year.  He only wanted a garbage truck and for his birthday, he asked for a matching garbage truck.  He was so excited when he opened it that he didn't want to open anything else. Spencer being super happy about his Star Wars book. Hooray for shopkins overload! Spencer gave Jordan the first book that he created. Brooke loved the blanket that Nanah made. More legos mean happy Spencer! Star Wars pajamas, yay!! Mad libs are so awesome! William really enjoyed this train someone made for him. The aftermath Hailey and her human body creation. Enjoyed skyping with family. Papah making his magical Christmas waffles with ice ...

It was twin day at school.  William and Brooke were football twins. Happily, Spencer has enough jerseys and is willing to share. He also thinks twin day is stupid so he is not a twin.  Hailey got matching shirts with her friends. We sang Christmas carols at the nursing home in town.  The kids love it especially since we already knew some of the people from our visits there. Spencer was sick one day. Just an awful winter for sickness!  He stayed home and ended up coloring this whole map.  He was pretty proud of himself. He loves maps and America. I was looking through my photo albums for something and came across this picture of Ryan and Ella.  I had to send it over to Monica. My sweetie Brooke. Hailey had a Christmas flute concert. There are so many concerts during the holidays.  The boys stayed home with Blake because they had already seen this one.  The girls and I went out for ice cream after.   Pajama day...
