We went to Idaho for Christmas on the 20th. We wanted to have our own Christmas together as a family to start our own traditions, so we had it early while we were in Texas. We had Christmas eve on the 18th. We read stories, The Polar Express, Twas the Night Before Christmas, and the story of baby Jesus out of the bible. We had homemade hot chocolate with homemade marshmallows and a candy cane in it. YUMMY! We drove around and looked at the Christmas lights. There is a section of Wichita Falls with amazing homes...and even more AMAZING Christmas decorations. I have never seen lights like that area of this town. They were beautiful! Santa brought some pajamas for the boys on Christmas Eve. He left them on the front door for them and the boys thought they heard something and went to check the front door and there were the presents! They were so excited! I don't have pics of it b/c i used my video camera. It was a fun night! Shane and i had lots of fun too. Here is a picture of my mantle all decorated with the boys Stockings. Sadly, i couldn't find Jaydon's stocking. So i hung up a bag. haha! He didn't know the difference.
Our humble little Christmas tree. I finally had ornaments to hang on it this year. I made a bunch and bought a bunch that were on sale.
Santa brought the boys new scooters. They were so excited about that.
Santa brought Jaydon a train set. He loves it. He loves to destroy it and take it all apart too. The boys play on it just as much as Jaydon does.
And of course We bought them gifts. I don't have pics of it all though. :) It was fun to have our own little Christmas here together. We loved it. Then on the 20th we were off to Idaho to celebrate Christmas with Shane's family.
