Christmas Day

Christmas Day is the best day ever - I don't know of any other day of the year you get to reflect on the Savior and spend the whole day with your family not doing much at all!    This year we told them they could wake us up at 5:30 after they had the chores outside done and a fire built.  Yes we are getting lazy and I think this is the latest we have ever started Christmas!
Kids ready to see what Santa brought.
 
 Stocking have some cool things in them.  Especially flashlights!

 Tylinn and Kaylee excited about their new Kindles.  They were shocked because they didn't even ask for them.
 Tylinn got a pink bb gun!  One excited little girl!
 Santa brought the boys each a Rugar 10/22.  They were pretty excited about this!
 Grandma McLaws made each of the kids a quilt.  She has made our family many but this year was especially special for each kid to have their own.  It brought tears to my eyes to read each corner of the kids blanket that had their name, made by Colleen McLaws, the name of the quilt and the date.  This was a pretty special present.




 There was some of this Christmas morning....
 and some of this Christmas morning....
 and have to have the trip out to try out all the guns.  It was a nice day but there was a breeze that made it pretty chilly out.


 Now that is just precious.
About 9:00 I laid down for a nap and about 10 we all watched a movie we got for Christmas. Life doesn't get much better then that!
Grandma and Grandpa Flake came for a visit and lunch.  It was fun for them to come for a couple of hours.  I love Christmas but thank heavens it is 365 days away! :)
