Ford Christmas 2012

We had a second Christmas a few days after Christmas with all of the Ford family. It was technically an In Law year for Christmas, so Kyle's sister and her family were at the In laws for Christmas. So we re-created Christmas completely later in the week. After a dinner of yummy appetizer's we got all the kids bathed and in their jammies and then we reenacted the Christmas story with costumes. The kids love picking who they get to be and getting their costumes on. Brynn was an Angel, Carson was a sheep, and McKay was a shepherd. We were lucky enough to even have a pregnant Mary!
 I LOVE the picture of Sadie and Brynnley, they truly are best friends and love playing together. I just love their cute angel wings and giggles.
We woke up Christmas morning to a family room full of presents. We started with stockings for the adults and then dove into the presents. The kids got a lot of really fun stuff from the Grandparents, the Smith's, Great Grandpa Hubbard, and the Great Ford Grandparents. They loved everything they got!
David loved our present this year, new Ohio State slippers.
LOVE these two! Yes, they are quite a few years apart, but Carson has a special bond with Tyler and Tyler adores Carson. We found out just after Christmas Heather is having another boy!
The girls are so similar they get mostly the same thing, they got some princess sticker books they couldn't wait to dive into.
McKay got a few new toys and some clothes, and the best gift of all some more dottera essential oils to help keep him healthy! The Smith's also got him a stuffed Gil from Bubble Guppies. Secretly I hoped he would love the stuffed bubble guppies, but they didn't get quite the reaction I was hoping for.
The girls got Barbie and the Popstar Barbie's from Great Grandpa and Grandma Ford. The girls immediately begged to open then. They then spent the next 5 minutes dancing around with their barbies and singing with them. To say they loved the present is an understatement.
Grandma Hubbard knows Carson well and got him 30 "monies" for Christmas. It is always one of Carson's favorite gifts!

We had breakfast together and everyone played with their toys. We also took the Smith's over to the awesome sledding hill and did some more sledding. The weekend was filled with fun, laughter, yummy food, and lots of fun family memories.
