summary

A little Christmas re-cap...I decided to go small this year. I didn't feel like digging all the Christmas decor out of boxes in the garage, so I just bought all new, and all smaller. It was so easy, but still brought the Christmas spirit into our home. Here are all of the kids presents nestled under our humble tree. Christmas for the kiddos. Christmas at Darrell and Gayle's.
Showing our presents off that Shalise and her students made for us. (Ceramic bowls that her students made and sold in an effort to raise money to fight hunger.) THANKS SHALISE!!
Dinner and photo opts at Grandma Gayle's
Christmas morning at the Crane's... WHAT A MESS!!!!
But, it just shows the magic of Christmas and all the excitement from the kids! Carmen and Mijken's kids had fun together, and that is all that matters.
giving the boys their presents...
Yeah! Candy and money!
One of Ryan's favorite parts of Christmas: Seeing his wife make a fool of herself (which I am quite good at, and have no shame doing so) on the indo board and pogo stick.
Andrew and Zach were MUCH better than me by far!!! Caleb got a guitar for Christmas. Here he is rockin' out. What a stud! And then here we are finishing the day with another visit to the Brett Bailey's. Snuggle bug Keegen can't be any cuter. Uncle Ry playing one last game with the kids before bedtime.

We hope you all had as great of a day as we did, full of family-time and loves.
