Christmas Eve

All of these posts are out of order, but now ask me if I care?! At least they are blogged! These pictures are from Christmas Eve... I had all 4 kids from 2 until 8 PM that night. When they first got to the house they opened the Air force blankets and pillows that I made them, they turned out great and the kids loved them! They also got to open their clothes for Christmas day so that I could get them all packed since they spent the night at their other parents houses. After we were done opening those gifts we headed to Grandma and Grandpa's where they got to open all the gifts from them too! They boys received model air planes and Emery got a barbie! They got their Christmas Pj's, played don't eat Pete and we all had a great time hanging out as a family. We missed Ben lots and can't wait for him to be around next year!




Happy Holidays from Afghanistan! Ben sent a few pictures I thought I would share, he was on a mission on Christmas Day but they had a good meal at one of the COP he was at and they got the day off so they had some fun with whatever they could get their hands on... including a Christmas tree! So happy Holidays from Afghanistan, Ben's looking forward to 2010 and coming home to his amazing wife!!! hahahaha

okay, you DID NOT make those blankets alone. i would like some shout out given to me, who helped tie 3 of them and mom who sewed around them.
