So here are the Woody jammies – you’ve seen the Buzz he wore for Christmas. He requests them at night, so cute!

So I was attempting to take a picture of Trav and I but I kept missing myself but that’s totally ok

with me because he’s so stinkin’ cute! Open-mouthed smile

I kept asking Enoch to look at me and he would respond, “I AM looking at you Mom” while giving me this face.

The picture on the right cracks me up because he totally looks like he’s bustin’ a move but I just caught him taking a step or something.

Travis, since he was tiny, will keep air in one cheek and this “pffft” it out. I have no idea where he learned it or why he does it

but he roams around the house doing this all day. Its just Travis.

A few of you may wonder why I have SO many photos of Travis lately and so little of Enoch – Its because of this.

He HATES taking pictures now and gets SO mad at me. Here, for some reason he thought Travis and I were going somewhere without him

and he was SO upset with me – even though I had just finished putting his shoes and coat on.

Then he was even MORE upset with me because I wanted a picture of him. He’s so emotional lately.

Christmas Day Eve at the Fuerst’s

So Christmas Day Evening was spent at my family’s house. The kids opened their gifts and then the adults

participated in a White Elephant Gift Exchange which turned out a lot of great gifts and good laughs.

Trav got Transformer cars from Josh – he walks around the house carrying them saying “Touch!” .

He LOVES the Stan Bush song, You’ve got the touch, that’s in the original cartoon movie.

Christmas Morn’

Christmas morning came and went, it was totally worth all the stress and last minute shopping. Did I mention that I really enjoy doing my Christmas shopping at Target because all their store signage ACTUALLY says, MERRY CHRISTMAS.

The boys made out like bandits, as usual. They were happy little campers and they are still enjoying their new toys, to this day.

Enoch got the whole Dinosaur Train set, no its not a TRAIN set. It’s a little show called Dinosaur Train where all these dinos ride this train through all the periods, Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous. Enoch LOVES it.

Its on PBS in the mornings if you’re into that sort of thing.

Travis got Cars and Toy Story stuff galore. He even got some super cute jammies from his Tutu – Buzz & Woody! He adores them.

Everyone had fun setting up the new toys.

Its Tradition, every year the Mickelsens come over for Christmas morning. They just love to watch the kiddos open their gifts and they love to eat Bonnie’s YUMMY Christmas brunch. Oh it was so good!

It was a QUIET Christmas which was SO nice. We relaxed, napped, ate, snacked, and played all day.

We hope your Christmas was as enjoyable as ours.

Merry Christmas!
