We had a lot of fun this Christmas. Ralph's birthday is December 22nd, so we were able to go away for the night. This was our first time away since before Chloe (4 years ago!!). We had lots of fun- we stayed in a cabin in Pigeon Forge with Roc and Jeralyn and we ate and ate and watched a movie and ate some more!! It was a nice time away. Thanks to mom and Amelia for watching the kids for us.


Christmas Eve mom and my brother Michael came over along with Ralphs mom and dad and we had supper and opened presents together. Chloe was so excited and Carter just wanted to go to bed. Chloe loved her microphone from Grandma!! She has been singing on it every day. That night we went out in the yard and threw marshmallows down for the reindeer to eat and a few carrots also. Our yard was covered in marshmallows- Chloe got a little excited with them. Then we couldn't beleive that we say Rudolophs red nose in the sky so we had to quickly get ready for bed.
The next morning we woke up to lots of presents and an excited 3 1/2 year old. She would open up one present and say I guess Santa forgot my "Hannah Montana Barbie" and look so sad. She finally go to her Hannah Barbie and could have asked for nothing else after that. She loves Hannah!! Carter just wanted to paper. Next year will be much more fun for him.

Ralph's family all came over Christmas night and we enjoyed time with them. The kids loved playing together.

By Christmas night I was worn out and more than ready for bed!! How we love Christmas but love when it is over (ha ha).
