Christmas

So now that is is over a week late, and i have a million things to do still this post will be a short one, but i want to document our Christmas with at least some pictures.
This year was a different. We were getting a new sub floor in the house on the main level so we would have to move out for a week while Brandon and his brothers and dad put the new floor down. So, on the 21st i took the tree down, 22nd took the rest of the decorations down to get ready to move everyting out of the living room. Kinda sad. To make it worse one of the little girls i tend asked me if i hate Christmas, i say no, why, she says cause you aren't leaving your tree up till Santa comes. No, i dont hate Christmas, i love Christmas!  But we moved into Branodn's parents house and celerbrated with them, and used their tree and decorations, and Kyler was in Grandma and Grandpa heaven.
Kyler got spoiled by his grandparents and got everything he could have imagined.
Brookie didnt really need toys, she got 3 (a dolly, a star stacker, and a wheeling snail) and got a load of clothes, which she was in despereate need of. She is a styling little lady, i wish i had her wardrobe!
Overall, it was a successful Christmas season. Complete with a new NON SQUEAKING floor and beautiful nice wonderful amazing soft carpet. Although next year, i swear by it we are not moving anything over Christmas (we have moved 3 of the 5 Christmas we have been a family unit)

Brookie with Hannah and Cassie 2 of her cousins at my moms house. She was in heaven with all the attention and the girls were in heaven playing with her.  Several times i would loose her, couldn't find her, panic, then would find Hannah with her...this picture was after one of those such incidences.

Shoes, shoes, shoes...if you are ever in the mood to steal shoes come to Grover over Thanksgiving or Christmas, there is a plethora of shoes on the landing...

Rainbow Jello...labor of love

Kim created this centerpiece....SOO Beautiful. (Thanks Pintrest for the idea for celephane in the glass and not real ice.)

Kyler Chilling watching Dora on the way back from Grover...he and brookie got a new flat screen tv set for all our travels....so blissful. So SO blisful.

Day after Grover trip...Brookie was out cold...all that playing is rough!

She LOVED Santa

Kyler not so much in love with Santa...but he gave him a gift with Disney Cars wrapping paper, so he was happy for that

a local dairy farmer has reindeer...so we visited them on Christmas Eve...Kyler was in love with reindeer the whole season. He was so heartbroken Santa never brought his reindeer to the 2 parties he was at. This trip was a success...all except the reindeer wouldn't come close to us so now we still hear that the reindeer were too shy to come say hi.

Ky and Daddy with the reindeer in the background

Boy heaven...hammering nails at our house during remodel

more heaven...pulling up tac strips

My hard worker on his lunch break...Pop Tarts and milk...lunch of Champions (or lunch for workers in a house that is very messy and most things inaccessible in the kitchen. He didn't complain. :)  )
