Christmas Day 2010

Hooray for Christmas. I can't believe it has already come and gone. We had a great day. We spent the morning opening presents and then headed off to be with my mom and her family for lunch and then to Kevin's family for dinner and more presents. I think that the kids were all very happy with what Santa brought them. They tore open all of the presents and made a huge mess...I am still cleaning up!

Jake slept most of the morning and was just happy being there. He got a new outfit and some diapers. Hooray for Diapers!

Maycee got some dress-ups, a purple barbie (which was the only thing that she wanted Santa to bring) and a kitchen! She hasn't stopped making us pretend food.

Isaac got this great remote control car, a new lightsabor, a ironman helmet and a superhero squad DS game and Donkey Kong Wii game.

Yep its an IPOD touch. That is what he wanted and Santa didn't let him down. I don't even have an IPOD but I am hoping that Brandon will share with me. He also got a remote control car like Isaac. Thanks to the nice sunshine yesterday we had lots of fun driving the cars around the culdesac!

Overall we had a great day. Kevin spoiled me like he always does and I even suprised Kevin with one gift that he didn't know about.

Chistmas Eve Nativity

We did the annual Nativity story on Christmas Eve. Kevin read the story and the kids (and some adults) acted it out. Maycee and Uncle Matt were Mary and Joseph. Baby Jake was baby Jesus. Brandon and Uncle Andy were the Sheperds, Mike and Isaac were the wiseman and Aunt Maddy was the angel. Oh ya....Grandma Jo and Grandpa Bell were the sheep! Next we played the chimes and then had dessert. After the kids were so excited for Santa to come that they set out the milk and cookies for Santa and went right to bed.

Rudd Family Christmas Party

We had the Rudd Family Christmas Party. Grandma Rudd rented the whole bowling alley and we all gt to have fun bowling. Next we headed over to have dinner at the pizza place and guess who showed up...Santa...yep....suprise....suprise!

Christmas trains

We did our fun Reese family tradition of Christmas Trains. All the kids decorated their box cars for the train. They each got new jammies from Gram and Papa and then climbed in their train boxes while Papa read the Polar Express and Gram passed out milk and cookies. This is one of the kids favorite thing to do with their cousins.

Maycee's 1st Dance recital

First you see Maycee's two dances and then you see all the dancers coming out for a final bow. Notice the little pink tutu girl that keeps coming out on stage...even when she is not suppose to, that is Maycee!

Maycee's first dance recital

Maycee and her dance teacher, aunt Ashley and her 3 cousins, Hailey, Savannah and Mykelle!

Maycee did wonderful. She actually sortof danced and even put on a show of picking her nose right in the middle of her dance! :) It was a proud moment for her momma! We have it all on video and I will try to upload the dance so you can laugh...it was great entertainment.
