Christmas Break Fun

The kids had 2 weeks of no school surrounding Christmas and New Years. We had to make some sugar cookies before Santa came.  Sam was so excited.  Hank and Max could've cared less.

Sam cut out 95% of the cookies.

Max endulged me for a couple cookies.

Voila!

Finally we have the snow we missed so desperately last winter.

The kids endured the frigid temps so they could play in the fluffy goodness.

Temperatures in the teens with a wind chill were no joke.  The kids convinced Randy to drive them to the nearby sports park to find some untouched powder.

Randy is such a good daddy.

Max's poor face was frozen when we were done.  The spray from the snow created little icicles on his cheeks.

The new Star Wars movie came out and we got to experience the madness with our resident Star Wars experts, Jack and Tucker.  They had to stop several times to take pictures with their adoring fans!

Max got a cotton candy machine from the Ross family for Christmas.

It's the perfect gift for a diabetic!  He's becoming quite the cotton candy making expert.  It has been so nice having the boys home.  We've spent lots of time together.  I'm not looking forward to them going back to school.  

Christmas 2015

What a gorgeous Christmas morning!!

Santa spoiled the kids rotten.  Sam got his precious Batcave!

Max got his Wii U!

And Hank got the Ipad he asked for.

This big present was Randy and my gift to the kids.

And since Griffy's been a good pup, he got spoiled as well.

Santa left behind this cool bag for the kids with custom sports gear inside.

I love how Hank left this note behind for Santa.  

The boys were bed faced and excited!

Hank, Max and Sam bought presents for each other.  Video games all around!

Beats headphones for Hank and Max and Spiderman headphones for Sam.

Much needed goggles for Randy.

Griffy is a fan of his farting ninja toy.

And the grand finale...

An arcade with all the coolest old school games.  I have a feeling Randy and I may play this more than the kids!  Galaga is calling my name.

Hank was anxious to set up his new Ipad.  If I can keep all these passwords and usernames straight it will be a miracle.  Notice my sweet new running shoes in the background?

Randy had to do some serious plowing before we could get out of our driveway to go to my moms.

There's no way we could leave Griffy behind on Christmas.

We made it!  It just wouldn't be Christmas morning without breakfast at Grandma Jackie's.

Randy had to hold Griff since he was tormenting poor Dove.

So many presents!

Sam entertained us by his one armed push ups.

Grandpa Darth

Matching leather jackets from Grandma!  Such studs.

These kids couldn't ask for better grandparents.

My boys!

We had a few minutes to go home and relax before we went to Griff's for dinner.

Sam was excited to show Karen his new Millennium Falcon ship.

Griff impressed us all with his bread making skills.

Once again our family was spoiled with awesome gifts.  Lennon and Sam were entertained by this giant horse for hours.  We are so lucky to live so close to our families.  What a wonderful Christmas day!
