Christmas Day!

Christmas morning with the kids was a blast! It always is. Watching kids enjoy gift exchanges has to be one of the worlds best experiences. Especially when the kids are enjoying and appreciating what has been given and received.

This is one of Hudson’s gifts, but ended up being a huge hit with all of the kids. The video below explains it all. Can you imagine having a ball you could stand up in and roll around it. LIFE SIZE!! How cool.

After our own family festivities were done we spent the rest of the afternoon with the Roses.

Stockings have always been a really big thing in my family, probably everyone’s favorite part of Christmas. Last year we each received our “final stocking” from our childhood Santa. It was super fun to receive that last year…..BUT…..it is a little sad knowing that that tradition is over :(

This year Leslie wanted to put a stocking together for my parents, so we all contributed towards one huge stocking for the both of them. It was a fun surprise for them. square 1-p002

After presents and dinner the rest of the day was spent playing with cousins. Can life get any better for a kid. What a killer day!

The Kelly’s brought marshmellow guns for all of the kids to decorate and have a little marshmellow war.

Thanks not only for the stocking but all the time it took to gather all the things to go into it. It was like walking down memory lane. Your all the greatest!!!
