This year we spent Christmas Eve and day with my family. We had our traditional pizza and sub sandwiches on Christmas Eve. All of my family was there except for my brother Anthon and his wife Ashleigh, as they are due to have a baby in a week. It was lots of fun. I love watching Landen and Sydney play with their cousins. Christmas morning we let Landen and Sydney open one present, since they really don't care either way. Then we ate our traditional hashbrowns, eggs, bacon, and oj. Then we opened up the rest of our presents. Landen got to the point where he didn't want to open anymore, he just wanted to play with what he had already. Sydney just loved taking her time opening her presents and then playing with them. We hung out, watched movies and then ate dinner. It snowed this year while we were there. But we were really equipped for the clothing to go play in it. After we ate dinner, we had to head back home, since Byron had to work the next day.
Santa came to visit. Of course my kids wouldn't go to him unless someone went with them. 
Opening presents that Uncle Jason bought them while he was in Mexico.
Landen's bike from Santa. It was a lot smaller that I thought it would be.
Sydney's bike from Santa.
This is my present to myself this year. A food saver. I love it. Don't worry, Byron actually got me a present this year and it was a really good one.
Saturday, we went to Byron's parents house to celebrate Christmas. We opened presents and then for dinner, Byron's Uncles and their families came over for dinner. Lots of fun.
Byron's mom, Wendy, made this for me. My kitchen is decorated in apples, hence the apple apron. 
Sydney opening presents. She loves her blocks, and loves to stack them.
This is Landen's present. He loved it. It is a race car track. 
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and have a great new year.

Glad you had fun at your 2nd Christmas. Wished you could have stayed longer. Hug the kids for me.
Looks like lots of fun!
sounds like a busy and fun Christmas!
It is alot of fun when the kids are little. Some of the magic leaves when the little ones all grow up. The grandkids are fun now though.
So fun!
A food saver, WHOO-HOO! You'll have to tell how you like it after you use it. I have thought about getting one. Glad you had a great one and I am jealous you were up there with the snow:)! happy new year!
I love my food saver! I have you love yours too. Isn't it funny how a kitchen appliance can make a mom so happy? I never thought getting a crock pot and a George Foreman grill last year would make me so happy. But, they did!
