Merry Christmas 2007!!!

We had a lovely Christmas despite being away from friends and family.

Gavyn, Noah and Daddy opened one of their gifts on Christmas Eve --

-- matching flannel PJs.

Here we are on Christmas morning in our flannels and Noah dressed up as Santa.

Here is Noah, smiling as usual and another shot of him with his stocking.

Gavyn got lots and lots of tractors, trucks and games. He was so excited and wanted to play with everything all at once.
After opening our gifts we had our Christmas breakfast, then got dressed up and played outside. It was a mild -15 degrees and a snowy day. We decided to head over to the middle school where they have a great sliding hill.



Noah napped while Gavyn and Daddy slid down the steep hill.

Gavyn also enjoyed some time on the swings.

Once back at home it was lunch and nap time. After nap -- more playing!!! We then had our Christmas dinner (turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes and mashed potatoes, squash, carrots, gravy and fresh bread) Here is the 18 lb turkey that we cooked for just Matt and I.

Gavyn isn't a turkey fan. We will have lots and lots of leftovers for the next little while!!

After our big meal, we all settled on the couch to watch one of Gavyn's new movies (Surf's up) that he got from Yvan. Really cute movie!
Then off to bed for the boys! Momma and Daddy stayed up a bit to watch part of the Planet Earth DVD collection that Momma got Daddy for Christmas -- such amazing cinematography!!!

Hoping that you all had as lovely a Christmas as we did!!!
