Christmas Part 1

Our Christmas Season is always a long one.  We have many Christmas's that we try and go to.  Both sides of our extended family still get together.  Thus making the total around 5.  We had one last weekend...and we had 2 this weekend..
We had my immediate family Christmas Friday night.  We had a BLAST.  The younger boys played well together considering them being 2 and well...boys.  Here the kids are eating their light supper.  We usually do sandwiches, becuase we always have a TON of food to munch on all night!


Nephews Kael and Grady checking out their new book lights. Yes, book lights and yes that is what they wanted. 


Maddison opening up Taylor Swift CD!


Garrett w/Ghostbusters Wii game.  This was Garrett's first real taste of  "its not about the number of presents, but WHAT the present is."  He had a number of things on his list that were expensive, therefore-not as many gifts as others.  We had told him this might be the case, but hearing is a not the same as experiencing.  He had to do more watching than opening.  After a few brief minutes of some pouting and little arguing he enjoyed the rest of his night!

This was priceless...My sister Katie and her Confessions of the Pioneer Women Cookbook.  She  had NO idea!


My mom posing w/her new mixer!  Her old one had bit the dust! (she was really surprised too)


Brent and his forever gift stand by: Home Depot Gift Card


My Dad and his new gift-A gun cabinet


My brother Mark and niece Morgan-Look at those eyes!


A good time was had by all. 

Today we had the BIG Rundquist Family Christmas.  Everyone was there except 3 cousins.  We missed them not being there, but everyone else made it.  We ate and ate and ate.  My brother in law Jeremy got a new game called Wits and Wagers.  I recommend it.  It was a great game.  A few can play or up to 20.  AND each game lasts only around 20 minutes.  

Wishing everyone a wonderful Christmas Season!
