Merry Christmas!

The newest member of our family, Kya.
So we decided to do it, we got a puppy. She is a 7 week old brindle boxer. She has been a lot of fun, the kids love her. It is definitely a lot of work though, I felt like I had a new baby, but I'm getting used to it now.

Rylie was so surprised! we woke up early, put the puppy in a box under the tree, and I thought her crying would wake Rylie up, it didn't so we went in and said, Rylie you have a box under the tree and it's making weird noises, come see. So right when we came in Kya popped the top of the box and jumped out, so cute! What she really wanted for Christmas was tinkerbell's real magic, which she had all sorts of plans for (that's what she asked santa for) but she hasn't complained about not getting that. She did say, "maybe santa should of brought us a puppy that didn't bite".





Kyler wanted santa's left overs, that's what he was most concerned about. He's looking around to see if anyone's watching him.














We had a great Christmas. Christmas eve we always go to a family party with my family, and my aunt and cousins, we had a great time. We live in the same town but never get to see each other, so it's always fun to get together with them. It's turning into a pretty big group now that we're all getting married and having kids, but that makes it even funner!
On Christmas morning we do our own thing, we open presents and make a big breakfast. The kids had such a fun morning cuz of the puppy and Kyler really liked opening his and everyone else's presents that I had been trying to keep him out of for weeks. Then we go over to my parent's and exchange gifts, and then to Kade's parents to exchange gifts. Then we come home for awhile and then go back to Kade's parents for Christmas dinner. It's kind of a crazy busy day for us, but we're totally spoiled with gifts and food all day. It's great to be loved!
