Ashton with Mammy and Pappy

I am so thankful for my little boy, he has brought so much happiness to our family, and I feel like we are so lucky to have him! Ashton is so sweet and he always says the cutest things to me, like "mom your the cutest girl" or "mom your the best swandwich maker ever", I look forward to his little comments daily, He always makes me smile! Asht and Morg have a very special relationship, and I love watching them do things together! He loves to go to work with his dad, even though he just sits in the truck all day long, he is just so content to be with his Daddy! We love you little buddy....Happy Birthday!

I absolutely love Christmas morning! I love to see how excited all of the kids get when they wake up and walk down Nama and Papa's stairs to see what Santa brought them. This year Ali woke up before anyone. Tiff heard her downstairs begging Nama to let her come wake everyone up so Tiff woke us up and we all headed downstairs! It was so fun to watch them open presents...this year all Ashton talked about was the motorcyle clothes he asked Santa for, and Ali the American Girl Bitty Baby so when they saw that Santa had brought them their gifts they were so excited! Ashton didn't take off his Motocross clothes for three days the first night he even slept in them! Santa brought Gray a vintage looking race car, he felt so cool riding it around the house! Mom spoiled everyone, she is seriously so cute, she got each family a Wii with extra controllers and games, then she got each of us girls a Wii Fit and the cutest presents ever, bracelets, rings we loved from Hawaii, Gift cards to VS (if you know Tiff and I we are a little obssesed with Pink clothes) Gift cards to Nordstroms, and some yummy lip stuff, she had it all wrapped in a big box with a black ribbon around it and each box had a tag with our initial on it! After everyone opened presents Nama made a yummy breakfast, we all cleaned up, then went to the inlaws! Thanks Mom for another amazing Christmas! We love you!

Christmas Eve, 2009

I had so many pictures of Christmas this year, that I decided to break my post's into two seperate ones! Every year we go to Aunt Melanie and Uncle Mont's house for Christmas Eve. We make gingerbread houses, eat dinner, sing songs, do the nativity, and then Santa usually comes to visit! When Santa leaves we go to my mom and dad's house. Mom always has cute stuff for the kids at her house, this year she had a little table all set up for the kids to make cookies for Santa. She had a cute candy cane pinata for them, she had stuffed it full of candy, little toys and bouncy balls, they loved it! Mom bought a big floor puzzle from potterybarn this year, and Ashton was obsessed with it, I think we put it together like 6 times! I absolutely love Christmas, it makes me laugh when I remember how my dad would wait until Christmas Eve and run uptown and buy everyone a bunch of presents. He always put keys, coins or bullets in with the presents before he wrapped them, so you would never be able to guess what he was giving you! We definately have a huge hole in our family now, it will never be the same without him.

Ramsey in his Buzz gear I bought him, So cute!

Santa's cookies, hot chocolate, and a letter from Ali!

My cousin Eric and I

Gray loved helping me make my gingerbread house! I think he ended up eating most of the candy off of it.
