Christmas Eve

Who would have thought it would have been so warm on the 24th of December?  The kids all had a ton of fun driving the Rhino around and Grandpa even took the little ones on a tractor ride.  Not a drop of snow on the ground and it wasn't even very cold.  

The kids all had a sleep over and the older kids all slept in the camper.  This was a funny picture that Summer took of Mike.  The didn't sleep more than three hours that night the party animals.  We all went to dumb and dumber 2 the night before Christmas Eve and didn't get home till 1:00 (the movie was so funny.  we were the only ones in the theater and it was so much fun.)  (Annette, Ryan, Summer, Karsten, Tanner, Mike, and me)  

The night of Chirstmas Eve we went to Ryans parents house and we had a nice dinner and then sang the Christmas songs that we do each year, and then opened gifts.  The girls were so happy about the gifts and they were even more excited to give the gifts that they bought.  Brytlee has always been my one that loves to give more than receive.  But this year she got the huge owl and she was soooooo happy.  She loved it.

Best buds.  They all had so much fun together and we stayed late… we had to hurry home so Santa didn't miss us that night.
