I'm honestly almost embarassed to post these pictures!! But I got over that and just have to laugh about it. So last year, Mike started what you might think of as an "ugly Chritmas sweater" contest. He was the only one dressed up and everyone had a good laugh at him. So this year, it was taken to a whole new level. You were actually out of place at the Christmas eve party if you weren't totally decked out. It was so dang funny some of the things that people were wearing. Mike took the cake with his haircut though. It aged him to about 45! Sorry hun, but it was a little scary!! Not quite as scary as Larkin though!!


Mike had been growning his hair out for a few weeks prior to Christmas eve just for this occasion. I had my friend Megan come over to cut my hair on Christmas eve so she had fun getting in on cutting Mike's hair for the party. Dang...what a stylish cut!


Braden was thrilled to open his Gormiti castle. He loves it.

Do they get any sweeter than this??

We had some happy little kids this Christmas! It was so fun to watch their expressions with their gifts. We had such a fun Christmas. So many blessings to be thankful for. Although I'm just most thankful that my husband cut the rest of his hair off the next day. He's such a good sport!! My husband is so sweet. He designed and built me an amazing entertainment system this year for our family room. It is beautiful, and he topped it off with a little gift for himself as well (disguised in my name.)!! A huge thanks so my sweet hubby for all of the thoughtful gifts.
