We hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas holiday. Ours could not have been better. The boys were so excited, and very spoiled. We kicked off our holiday early. Tuesday we went and visited with my Grandma, Aunt Bird, and Uncle Kenny. Wednesday started early at the gym (I didn't want to feel guilty eating cookies) had an early brunch with the btbb fam. But wait, then we went to the big family celebration. Spaghetti, lasagne, salad, bread, and so much more. ( a true Italian dinner) Thursday, SANTA came during the night, Riley and CJ could not contain their excitement, opened presents, and played the morning away with their new toys. Jesse and I made a huge Christmas Dinner to share with his parents, brother, and neices, and nephew. CJ and Riley passed out early waking up Friday morning expecting it to all start over again. I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday as much as we did. bless you and yours this holiday. Love you Erika

This is the bestest Christmas Ever!

We have lots of boys who were very ready for Christmas.
Riley started by playing carols for us all.
Then the party went into full swing.
Our family is so full of love for each other. It is wonderful when we all get togetherand celebrate.
It was so great that Pat and Bob were able to make it.
Our families
are growing
by leaps
jumps
and bounds!

THANK YOU SANTA! WE LOVE YOU!

Dear Santa, Please I would like an air tank, goggles, flippers, and a red candy cane. Love, Riley

Dear Santa, I would like a dancing Brobee please. I have tried to be good but I still pinch sometimes though. Love Cooper
Happy Christmas everyone!!!

Which pumpkin should we pick?

How should we carve our pumpkins?

I have a great idea.

Let's hit them with a hammer!!!

And cover them with nails. That's how you carve a pumpkin properly.

CJ loved his elephant.

Riley was a piljing pirate.

We had so much fun with our family this year trick or treating not so close to home.

Saving the Planet with Our Big Friends

Clean up day!!! The boys worked so hard recycling and picking up trash.
