Christmas Day

Kade's new "ride"















Tyler's new dolls















Colin with a new toy, Kade in the middle of things (as always)















Zack and McKena with their new stuff














Apparently we were too busy to take very many pictures, but here they are!

Morrison Family Christmas Party

This year we held our annual Morrison Christmas Party at Dave and Gina's house. We ate some delicious dinner and then continued with our tradition of doing the nativity play. McKena got to be Mary this year, a first for her. Zackary was Joseph, Colin a shepherd, and Kade a wise man. The kids did a good job, except for the wise man making a running escape at the end during the photo session. We then took family pictures and then opened presents of course. It was a very nice day.

My nativities, and this cute little Believe sign that John's cousin makes.

My living room

My fireplace (I have more stockings, but not enough stocking holders) and my new couch.

Some Christmas Decorations

Again, I apologize for not knowing how to turn these pictures around.















Here are some of my favorite Christmas things. Pottery barn stockings found at Downeast for half price, the tree (the kids are still mad at me because I skipped their ornaments this year-I had big plans of putting up 2 trees), and my plate that I made at Super Saturday.

Ready for church

McKena was so excited about her new Christmas dress that she could not wait to wear it. I figured "whatever" because it will only fit her this winter anyway. And this also happened to be Kade's first day in nursery. He did great! And great for Mom and Dad too!

Colin's Birthday Bash

We started Colin's birthday festivities with a family party on Thursday night. Greg and Jen came to have cake and ice cream with us. Then we rushed off to pack meeting. At least when I asked Colin what he wanted for his birthday dinner he picked corndogs, so that saved us some time. I was more than happy to throw those in the oven.

We were sure that Grandmas and Grandpas would want to see Colin modeling his new t-shirt. (A Kohls bargain at $3.20)

The boys at the birthday party had fun playing football in the back yard. We are glad Colin is 8!
