Christmas Morning

Richard had to work Christmas day, so we stayed the night at my mom's on the 23rd and woke up and did all our Christmas with them Christmas Eve.

Mom got bears, dad got a new gun.

Every year, the boys tell Kyle they are buying him a baby doll, because he asks constantly what he's getting. So this year, Chad bought him a baby doll as a gag gift, you can see Kyle is thrilled.

Christmas dinner with my family

We had Christmas dinner with my family at my cousin Carrie's house this year. We hope to have our house done enough to have it at our house next year.

We always exchange handmade gifts, except for the kids, we usually buy them some toys. Uncle Reg and Aunt Sheila made us a popcorn bowl this year, we just love it. Carrie & Dave gave us a popcorn basket, with a popcorn maker. It's great.

Gift exchange with friends

This year we did a gift exchange with our friends, we also played some Christmas games. The game we played: in teams of two, we had to tie two hands together and try to wrap a gift with the other two free hands, the winner had the best wrapped package. Chad and Kyle won.

Christmas Dinner

Every year we get together with Richards family and have dinner. Then we go back to Uncle Bill's house and listen to the brothers tell stories of when they were young.
