12.29.30 Ugly sweaters and Christmas

The second post! A little more spaced out then I had planned but not too shabby. So this month has been crazy busy for us. About two weeks ago my friend Meagan and I did an ugly Christmas sweater party and it was sooo fun! We ate and played a few games. One where you put a cookie on your eye and then you have to move it to your mouth only using your face muscles. It was excellent and so funny to watch. Landon won for the ugliest sweater! His was pretty good I must say.

Landon's amazing sweater! You better believe it had lights on it.

Christmas was great! Christmas Eve we went to my mom's house as usual and opened presents and hung out for a bit. Then we headed home and put the boys to bed and Landon and I each opened a gift to each other then headed off to bed. In the morning we all hung out and played in bed for a while. Then we got up and opened presents. I was so excited for Landon to open his cause I got him a PS3 and I was so sneaky with it. He's been wanting one for a few years now so it was fun to get it for him. He is so cute, he get's so excited for Christmas. Two day's before Christmas he told me to "kiss him like it was 2 days before Christmas!" It was so funny how he said it...maybe you had to be there but it cracked me up. Anyway we opened our gifts, Landon got me a nice new camera bag and some sweaters and other cute stuff. We got Linc a bunch of toys and a new flash light. Linc is REALLY into flash lights right now. We didn't get too many things for Lukie since he enjoyed the wrapping paper more then anything. Then we went up to Landon's parents house and they got us a new stew pot, which we really needed and some cute things for the boys. They always get us bulk size items from Costco which I LOVE. I look forward to it every year. This year they gave us a big thing of toilet paper, laundry detergent and wipes. They are great! After that we went to my grandparents and open gifts. This year Michele and Kelly had our family and they made the cutest calendar for us and got Linc a tent with a tunnel on it and he loves it. It was fun hanging out with the fam. I'm pretty sure Dad was high on something which was frustrating but I'm glad he was there. I miss him so much sometimes, even when he is in the room. He's just not the same. So sad. After we hung out for a bit we headed over to Dan and Nancy's (Landon's aunt and uncle) for a lunch. It was delicious. Nancy is the best cook. Linc got a fever and started getting really ornery so we left kind of early. We came home and Linc took a long nap then we went to Landon's dad's house and exchanges gifts and played on the Wii. It was lots of fun and lots of running around. Next year I think we'll plan to not be so busy on Christmas day.
