After our Christmas on Christmas Eve we headed to my mom and dads house. We had a great time hanging out with my family. My brother Bobby was there and my sister Tobi and her family. The kids all had loads of fun opening gift and playing with everything.
Bobby forced mom and dad to pose for a picture - mom hates having her picture taken.

The boys woke us up at 5 am to open presents. They had a great Christmas and received lots of fun toys and games. We have been very blessed this year and are thankful for all we have.
The tree...Santa seems to track in snow every year - some years it's more than others, but this year there wasn't too much since we didn't have any snow outside - he must have brought it from the north pole.
More footprints from santa coming from the fireplace going to the tree.
We had a Christmas party at the neighbor's house with a great dinner, some games and even a little singing. Just wanted to post a couple picts.
Here's Drew and Davis rockin the house
We had a neighborhood Christmas party and a gift exchange and Drew received a very cool bath toy from Ms. Kimber and family. It was a pirate set that you can color foam pages and look in a mirror while you draw on your face. Of course Drew's version went a bit further, but he had lots of fun - he can stay in the bath for the longest time!
Drew was chosen at school to bring home "Rainforest Rudy" for the weekend. They are to document Rudy's adventures for the weekend and bring him back on Monday. Rudy had a very busy weekend at our house! Greders came into town with all their kiddos also.
We went shopping at West County mall with the girls, met up with the guys for dinner at California pizza kitchen then headed over to the Blues hockey game. Sunday Lisa and I took all the kids to America's Incredible Pizza place while Jeff and Eric went to Buffalo Wild Wings to watch football.
Here's Drew, Lucy and Lisa with Rudy.

Drew decorated this table all by himself. He ended up carting everything upstairs to his bedroom.
Big boys on the roof...Drew wanted to get up there so bad. I told him he had to be ten years old so he just hung out on the ladder.
We put up our Christmas decorations today and I figured I should post some since we always go to our families houses for Christmas, no one ever gets to see our house decorated.
