Merry Christmas, Thomas Family Party and Frosting Cookies

Kids seriously make Christmas so FUN!!  The boys were so excited Christmas Eve.  Right before we went to bed Tegan told me, "mom, make sure you and dad shut your door when you go to bed because if you see Santa and he sees you then his magic will go away and we don't want to be the people responsible for his magic to be gone"  It was so cute, so we made sure to shut our doors. 

 

The boys were so excited Christmas Eve and were being so naughty because of all their energy and we kept saying, you are being pretty naughty I bet you are going to get a lump of coal.  Well, at about 4:00 am Kyson came into our room and said, "MOM, I can't see all the presents but there is no lump of coal out there" he had so much excitment in his voice : ) It was so cute!!  He was right, there was no lump of coal, just fun toys and treats.  Beckem didn't care about anything except the stupid candy cane thing filled with candy.  He thought that was the best present ever. 

 

Beckem and Boden were pretty sick on Christmas so that day was not so fun for them.  They still are so miserable, but I am hoping we are on the down slope.  It's hard to see your babies sick : (   

In this picture you can see how sick Beckem and Boden look in their eyes : (  breaks my heart!!

 

Zac finally had his surgery four days before Christmas so he was a little painful as well, but we have been icing it and he has been keeping it elevated.  Just glad to have the surgery over with so he can start recoverying finally!!

In the middle of December we had the Thomas family party at our house.  He we are playing the annual bean game.  Gotta love it!!

 My uncle Lynn is about 6' 7" and Beckem walked right over to him and put his arms up for him to hold him and when he picked him up Beckem just kept smiling so BIG, he loved uncle Lynn. 

 One night the elf had us frost christmas trees.  The boys had a blast going to town on their trees.

  We had our annual sugar cookie frosting party at Grandma Thomas house. It's something we have done ever since we were little girls, I love getting together and laughing with these crazy nuts.
