This was the first year in a long time I've been able to get just about everything I wanted to do with my boys done before christmas. Ginger bread houses, driving around looking at lights, santa, and the list goes on. The one thing left we needed to do was make cookies so with everything else I was doing Christmas eve I fit in making cookies too. I don't bake very often. It's a mess! But the boys loved it and for that reason I need to do it more often. Stockton especially got into the cookies. I'm regretting not adding a picture of him with the cookies now but Blake did love it too.
We went to my in laws for Christmas Eve but this year it was only our family and Jenny's even though it's their year for Christmas. It seems to me we are the only family that actually still follows the in laws schedule.
When we got home the boys opened their new PJ's and Stockton wasn't happy about it. He wanted to open a toy and was sad it was PJ's. My older boys are used to the drill now I've been doing this since Blake was a year old.

I went a little over board on presents this year. I do it all the time. I never have the right amount because it's hard to know.

I forgot to add that Bryan's parents spent Christmas morning with us and that was fun.
Their big presents were a hugging elmo for Brett, vtech trains for stockton, a kindle fire for Blake and a ninjago lego set for tyson.
My parents came up the day after Christmas with the kids presents. My dad had built the kids a lego table that they LOVE.
