Final Christmas Celebration of 2015

We celebrated Christmas with my Dad and Vicki last night.  We had ham, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, corn, salad, and rolls.  We watched football, talked, took some family pictures, and the boys and I took some funny selfies!  Ha! 









Christmas Day

We got to my Mom's and she immediately put Carson to work on the deviled eggs!  He did a good job!  We had ham, mashed potatoes, gravy, salad, roasted veggies, and rolls!  Delicious!  My Mom came up with the cutest gift for the boys; a McDonald's gift card attached to a McDonald's "gift" bag!   When they looked inside the bag they found a fry box with thirty $1 bills as fries!  I'm lovin' it (pun intended!)!  I think she should market the idea to McDonald's.  Uncle Brad gave the boys money in a 3D maze that took them some time to figure out.  Adam got his money out first!  I asked Carson to take a picture of Larry & I, so he pretended to take our picture while taking SEVERAL selfies!  Stinker!  We had a great day...chatting for hours and just relaxing.  














Christmas Morning

The boys were up early on Christmas morning to see if Santa had come!  He didn't disappoint!  The boys didn't get as many gifts this year and most everything they received was small size wise!  Gone are the days of piled presents that are $5-$10 each!  The big gifts this year were a laptop for Carson and an iPad mini for Adam.  Electronics are breaking Santa's bank!  Ha ha ha! 

The boys stockings had Axe body spray, Axe deodorant, Axe shaving gel (for Carson only), toothbrushes, toothpaste, candy, $5 McDonald's gift cards, a lottery ticket, a foam football, NFL stickers (Adam only), more candy, pepperoni sticks, Under Armor stocking hats, lip balm, ear buds, shampoo, face wash, etc.!






Christmas Eve

We had a fun Christmas Eve with Larry's family.  Trisha brought her boyfriend, Jeremi and of course, Taylor.  I think Taylor had the most presents under the tree!!!  Ha!  We had ham, yams, stuffing, green beans, and rolls for dinner.  Several snacks and dessert too!  The dogs and cat were in heaven as lots of food ended up being handed to them!  The boys got drones from Renee!  Taylor received clothes, diapers, toys...you name it!  We just had a really nice time!

Football, Friends, and Food

Corey and Melody invited us over to watch the Broncos vs. The Steelers game yesterday.  Melody made some awesome cranberry mimosas, chicken chimichangas, Spanish rice, pink salad, and other snacks!  I had to get a picture with Corey using my selfie stick because he made fun of it!  Ha!  We had a really fun time minus the Broncos losing!
