Later on Christmas day we dropped Hunter and Cannon off at their mom's so they could get yet more gifts, then Ed and I went to his parents to visit and then off to my parents for more ham yum yum. On our way home that night it snowed like mad we had so much snow it made my Christmas. This was a fabulous Christmas and I am so glad we had such great family and friends to share it with.

Christmas Morning

Christmas morning
Cannon came in our room aboutsix and asked if we could open presents, we told him he had to wake up Loganand Hunter which took all of two seconds. So we got up and the boys couldn't
wait they were so excited. Cannon read the note Santa left which said Thank you and
told Ed even though he didn't like his reindeer that he would still be on the good
list. The boys thought it was so funny. Then we got to the good part the presents.
They got lightsabers, nerf guns, movies, Guitar Hero world tour with the band, skateboards, baseball bats, thomas the tank engine and so much more. The joys of having boys.

Christmas Eve was a pretty crazy day. First we went and had Chinese food because that is a tradition Ed and the boys have and it was fun, we were going to be stupid and attempt the mall but since we couldn't find a parking spot we left and went home. Then we had Ed's parents come over and we opened gifts together, then later on that night we went to my parents for dinner with everyone and opened gifts there too. Logan got to go over to his Aunt Laura's and spen Christmas eve there with his dad he had so much fun. The boys loved it because they said they had never opened this many gifts before Christmas

Logans Christmas Lights

So Logan put up these led Christmas lights in his room and it makes it look like he has a black light. His mouse cage is in his room and has purple and a clear yellow color and they glow just like a white tshirt would it is so funny. We had one of Cannons friends over and as soon as he looked down the hallway he asked what is going on in Logan's room. They are extremely bright. Logan loves them though and tries to get me to read his stories without the room light on however they hurt my eyes so I can't. Here is a good picture with him in his orange soccer shirt that almost glows because of the color.

My Family as Elfs

I couldn't help myself I had to make my own. They are too funny and fun! Enjoy

Gingerbread Houses

This Christmas my Grandpa and Grandma Curtis bought us a gingerbread house. Knowing my boys we went and got two more so we wouldn't deal with conflicts. We had an absolute blast putting these together.
