Christmas.

HA! this note cracked me up. 

that middle one is such a weirdo!

I couldn't stop laughing at my Dad in this ill fitting shirt that Maria made him wear. This picture does not do it justice. The hemline was so short, so stretched out, so awkward! (it was one of those shirts that come in a tiny square & then you put it in water and it expands, FYI)

Christmas morning was awesome. This was the first year that Santa had some things unwrapped so we put up a sign not to go past the hall way before waking us. Brayden wanted a mini dirtbike and Kosty wanted a hot wheels jeep. They both got a basketball hoop and a couple other things. The rest of the morning was spent in pj's playing with toys, of course. Then at noon, we went over to the Figgins to talk to Zach who is on his mission. It was fun to be able to talk to him and see how well he is doing. He said he wasn't homesick "at all" which was sort of comforting and insulting all at the same time ;) We opened more gifts at Grandma's and spent some time there before heading over to my Dad & Maria's. We spent the next week pretty much waking up, going outside to play in pj's, coming inside to play our new favorite board game: Clue, and then repeating over again. One of my favorite memories this year was when we found this note Kosty had left for the elves a few days after Christmas. Sometimes it breaks my heart how sweet and grateful he can be.
