Annual Lovin' Christmas Party

Our family Christmas Party was another big hit! Aaron and Natalie's house is oh so beautiful and HUMONGOUS! Our family is getting so big with so many little ones and when we are there you don't even feel one bit crowded. The food was delicious (how could it not be with cute Nat in charge!) and the company great! I love this tradition that our family has been doing for as long as I can remember.

I am very sad that I didn't get as many pictures as I wanted. Guess I was having to much fun to pull my camera out:)

Jessica, Carli and Tristin

Caden and Tanner chillaxin'

Uncle Bob and his handsome boys (missing Shawn)

Santa came and showed us all of his latest magic tricks. The kids were all memorized. They loved the trick where Santa's thumb would light up!!!

Blakley loved watching him perform as long as he stood a ways away. She would just clap and clap.

Then it came time for the kids to sit on his lap. Best part of the night:)

Carter jumped right on!

He got a really cool Star Wars light saber night light.

Cute Troyster!

He got the same night light as Carter.

Of course princess Kenli was perfect!

Bentley was a little unsure of the whole Santa thing. You couldn't tell if he was going to laugh or cry. Cute boy!

Benson does not like Santa at all, but did really good by getting on his lap for a quick picture. No smiles though.

Brooks=another pro

I don't think Clint wanted to get up on Santa's lap, but he was a good sport anyways!

I think Tanner just go done asking for a million things! But boy he sure is handsome! He got the Guinness World Records book he has been begging for.

Lela got a book.

Santa gave Tristin a book.

He gave Jessica a book, too.

They must all LOVE to read:)

This pretty much seems up what Blakley thinks of Santa this year. She did not want anything to do with him. It could have something to do with the fact that she was standing near the front door by herself when Santa busted in with his loud "Merry Christmas." She was screaming her head off and couldn't get into someone (anyone's) arms fast enough. Poor girl, hope that didn't scar her for life:(

She was happy and forgot all about him when she saw her new dolly!
