Christmas week:)

We have had a wonderful Christmas week with Joshua's parents visiting us(see post below this one to see pics of them) and an amazing Christmas.

First off Melissa came and visited with her girls from Thatcher. Emily, me and Melissa and our girls(how fun that we all have girls) went to lunch at Chick fila so that the kids could play and we could chat:). It was so much fun chatting and brought back great memories when we were roommates.

On Monday night we had a Christmas at our neighbors and exchanged gifts with their daughter Briana. The girls had so much fun opening up gifts.

On Christmas eve we went to Macayos for dinner with my grandparents and my siblings and parents. It was so much fun and that's a tradition we started about 5 years ago. Then we went to my parents and opened up gifts from my grandparents and the girls opened up their pajamas. Did you get pj's for Christmas eve:). I always did and that way when you wake up on Christmas Day you have new jammies for Christmas and for the pictures. So Brooklyn woke up Christmas morning and her new Yo Gabba Gabba jammies were wet. I was like oh no...of course her diapers never leak and some mornings she is dry but oh no since it was Chrismas morning her diaper leaked and so we had to put on another pair of Pajamas.

Our Christmas was amazing! It consisted of lots of fun Yo Gabba Gabba toys and Hannah Montana. Santa sure knew what the girls wanted this year:). Mariyah also got roller skates which she loves and Brooklyn got a bike.

We hope each of you have a wonderful Christmas and for those of you who sent us Christmas cards thank you. We loved receiving the fun pictures of your family and we hope you have a Happy New Year!!!!!!!

After writing my "Novel" I decided to do a slide show:)

What a fun Christmas! It was so fun to see you and all of the girls! I wish that our gatherings didn't have to be so few and far between.
