Christmas Eve we were going to try and find a Christmas Eve service to go to but seeing as how we hadn't even visited any churches yet and we didn't plan very well....that didn't end up happening. Jason took Blake shopping for a gift for Caden and I took Caden shopping for a gift for Blake. That is always fun to see what they pick out and if they are really thinking of what they would want or what the other one would want. They did well this year and actually kept the gifts a secret from each other until that night when we let them open them.
We did some baking .... cookies and a birthday cake for Jesus. I didn't post any pictures of the cake because it looked pretty bad but it tasted fine and it's the thought. (I have too many friends who actually make cakes and they look awesome that I wasn't going to post my sad "attempt" ).
Christmas day was another day of relaxing and staying in our PJ's :) Santa and Mrs. Santa weren't very smart and stayed up way too late trying out the Wii (we had to do quality control to make sure it would work;). So with Caden waking at 3 in the morning and not being able to go back to sleep until 4:30 I didn't get much sleep....then Blake woke us all up at 6:15!! I really needed a nap! We also learned a lesson in Remote Control trucks and cars....they don't always work. As much as we wanted to avoid it we had to make a trip to Toys R Us the day after Christmas to appease one little guy who had 2 toys not work properly. He was a very happy boy when he realized all he was able to get at Toys R Us after his returns. We lucked out and the line really wasn't all that bad.
I had too many pictures to post so I made a Christmas 2011 album on Shutterfly that you can view.
I hope you all had a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
