We Wish You a Merry Christmas!

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM OUR HOUSE TO YOURS!!!!

It's official...it's a winter wonderland out there! I took a picture of Mr. and Mrs. Claus on Th. around 11:30. You will see in a later picture how much snow we had received 28-30 hours later!!

We got home on Wed. at 5 and haven't left the house since. Jason and Presley went with our neighbor 2 miles down the road to pull our mail lady out of the ditch. That's the furthest they have gotten. Madison and I did go out for about an hour on Th. to play in the snow with Jason and Presley...but that's it for us. We have no idea how much we have gotten...but it's A LOT!!! Although our Christmas has kept us home bound...we have had a lot of fun...just the 4 of us! Let's not get crazy though...we are excited to get out of the house...and hope to do so tomorrow (weather depending!) Here's what we have been up to the past couple days...

Wed. night we put a gingerbread house together. I found this great kit that had all the necessities in it! It was a family affair!
And here was the finished product!

On Christmas Eve, Presley and Madison woke up extra early to open presents! They were so excited! I managed to bribe them by getting them to take a few pictures first!


They helped get all the presents out and made their own piles!


I took a couple quick pic's of them by their presents...and then the fun began!





Jason and I decided to get each other some new furniture for Christmas...so we opted to just get each other a few very small things to go with that. We were excited for our furniture to come on Tuesday...just in time for Christmas!
Here is Presley Renee with all her presents!

And Madison Jay with most of her presents!

After breakfast and playing with presents, we decided to get bundled up and go outside! It was 25 degrees and snowing...perfect weather to do some sledding!







Then it was time to put out some magic reindeer food! We wanted to make sure they got a snack too while at our house!

Finally, CHRISTMAS had arrived! Santa made it to our house...even in the blizzard! Presley woke up even earlier to find 2 big presents downstairs with her and Madison's names on them! Madison got this rollercoaster from Santa...
And Presley got a Barbie camper!
We couldn't get them out of the boxes fast enough!



Both gifts seem to be a hit! They played with them all day today...plus with their other new toys! We have watched lots of movies too these past couple days!
As promised...here's another picture of Mr. and Mrs. Claus...28-30 hours later. The snow continues to come down and creep up on them! If it get to their faces...we are in trouble!
Here's hoping you have had a very Merry Christmas!!! Goodnight!
