Fire on the screen, and fire in the fireplace....we love our heat around here!!!
They all opened gifts, there were lots of thank you's, a few fainting episodes followed by a 'Mom and Dad, i love you SOOOO much!!'...which was nice. They are such sweet kids.....
It's blurry, but he worked so hard getting this big gift over to me.....the box was of a computer! I started breathing a little faster because i thought chris got me a new computer (mine has been not working as well as it could for a 1 year old machine....so i was genuinely freaked that he got a new one!!).....turned out to be a sweet new fry pan! Exactly what i wanted!!!
After we had breakfast, our friends came over to exchange gifts.......love
elliot and his awkward 'lets pose with marty'....sheesh.
It was also Jax's birthday!!! Luckily this sweet little kid didn't remember
getting this glowy ring LAST year for christmas from us!!!
Rach made up these little bowls with candies and straws wrapped up in them for each boy......
She also made each set of brothers a very cool collage of their last
year together.....it was very special. I know its blurry, but it just captures life right now, we adults are all still, while the kids are crazy all around us!!!
Paul seemed to be happy with his dashboard mini hoola girl for his mini truck......
And rach loves nuts.....
And this is just a little preview of Christmas night at the Burdges.....check out Elliot and his new official mini-air horn from auntie laura.....she thought it was awesome...just awesome...and didn't understand why the rest of us weren't all fired up about it!! It was pretty funny.....check out elliots intense expression AND his fierce GRIP!!!
