*He found us all the way in Morgan*

We spent Christmas Eve and morning at Adam's parent's in Morgan this year. It was so fun to have our whole family there, Andy and Annette, Aric and Cami, Ben, Alexis, Brogan, Avery, and Bridger, and Us...
Aric won this awesome white elephant gift at a Christmas party, hilarious!
Brogan...they look a little like Zach Brown I think.
The girls didn't waste any time, they got right to playing dress up.
Bridger is getting so big and so so so cute! I love this picture...

Nana and the kids decorated gingerbread houses...the frosting was bright red and green so we ditched the white outfit.

Kadence tested out the frosting a time or two.
Her silly dad tried to aim for her mouth...
and got her nose instead.
Alexis brought glitter to throw outside so that Santa and his reindeer could easily spot Nana and Papa's house when the moon light shined on it.
Such a cute idea!
The big girls had to try to...
The kids, trying to find their Christmas Eve presents amongst all of those gifts.
Jammies!
For everyone...and matching!
Ben and Alexis gave out games, Candy Land for Kadence
and Hungry Hungry Hippos for Brogan and Avery.
The cute couple...
Nana made all new stockings for all of us, this is just the adults, there are 5 more on the other side of the staircase. They were all so pretty.
The excitement and anticipation set in, and there was lots of running around.
Cami and the girls.
I'm thinking we should post these matching jammies photos on the Awkward Family Photos website, haha.
The girls...
The boys...
Milk and Cookies for Santa, and a carrot for the reindeer.
We attempted to have the kids all sleep on the floor in Nana and Papa's room, it was a good idea, but Kadence ended up in her crib in our room. Notice the bumble bee pillow pet, my dad and Susan gave that to Kadence and we don't go anywhere without it, she loves it!
Christmas Morning, Kadence when she first woke up...
OMG...they were so excited!!
He found us, and was very generous!


LaLa Loopsy Doll...
Bridger got a bouncer and has fully mastered it, so big!
After we left Morgan we came home and took a 3 hour nap, then it was right back to playing with new toys. I love this picture, Kadence has not ate, slept, are taken a car ride without Woody, Buzz, and Jessie since Christmas morning.
We had a great Christmas, so great to be with family. Thanks Nana and Papa for making our stay awesome! Hope everyone had a fabulous Christmas!!

*Christmas Parties*

Last weekend was full of family Christmas parties!

We started out Saturday morning with lots of shoveling and a mini snowman.
In preparation for the 14 grandkids to come over, grandma Jaimie had a great idea to cover all the tables in brown paper for the kids to color on...genius. They were very entertained.
Little Emery and Kadence had a lot of fun singing Christmas songs together...
Time for presents...
Horsey jammies!
Kadence loves all of the kids, especially the cool older girls.
Scott and Meagan
Us...
Grandpa and Grandma and all of the grandkids...minus tiny Isaac, he was with his momma.
Sunday it was off to my dad and Susan's to celebrate.
Little Mady, she's so cute!
We played Wii Bowling, Kadence had fun hanging on her dad's legs.
Presents...

The girls were so excited about their pillow pets!
Kadence hasn't went down for a nap or to bed without her bumble bee since!
We had a great weekend. Thanks to both Grandpa's ad Grandma's for spoiling us...we love you!
