THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS

We stayed our first couple of nights at Toby's parents house. So Christmas Eve and Christmas day were a lot of fun because of all the family that was around. Brooklyn seriously couldn't get enough of everyone. She was having the time of her life.

When Tess came over that night we were pleasantly surprised to see that Brooklyn and her were wearing the exact same outfit. Jami and I must have been on the same page because the next day we realized that we had also got them the same exact coat. They looked pretty dang cute in their little outfits!

Jodi and Troy came over that night to hang out with us. But they left the next morning to go to Hawaii. We were bummed that we couldn't hang out with them more.

From left to right this is Jed, Jake, Quinn and Jamie. Then standing behind is Toby's dad.

Brooklyn was excited to wear her new slippers.

Opening pj's on Christmas Eve is always lots of fun.

This is mom trying her best to keep everyones attention for a spiritual thought.



This is Marie singing her songs for us all. She is seriously the smartest three year old she has more songs memorized than most 8 year old's do.

Brooklyn has a favorite. This is Jakey boy and she loves him so dang much. She would ask were he was all the time. And when she would see him she would run up to him saying "Jakey boy"! I think Jake loves her a lot too!

Poor Toby was pretty sick. He was trying his best to enjoy it all but you could tell he felt like crap.


Toby was pretty stoked about his pj's!

lol!! They even had a butt flap!

Santa filled our stockings with care.

I love how Toby's dad decorated the Elk's antlers!

These are the gifts that we had sent from our house. They actually didn't get to banged up. I was happy about that because I wrapped them before we sent them. The bows just needed some straightening.

Christmas Eve was really so much fun. Nikell went to bed pretty early because she still wasn't to happy. She had three teeth that were pushing through and she was also very tired. We were glad that she started feeling better on Christmas.

How funny that Brooklyn and Tess had the same shirt. That usually happens with the girls and Marcs little girl but usually we buy the clothes together and then plan to wear them the same time. It looks like you guys had a great christmas eve.
