Christmas in Review

We had such a wonderful Christmas that we wanted to post all of the fun things we experienced. Jonathan's parents sent us these cute racoon hats that Dean actually loved wearing and pajamas made by Grandma Walker and Aunt JaNae.
Unfortunately, the hats came with toy guns. I don't think Santa got the "no weapons" request that exists in our home.
While we were visiting my parents in Washington, we decided to take six of the grandkids to a playplace at a nearby mall. It was crazy but they sure had a great time.
My mom has this awesome roller coaster for the grandkids. She was a little shocked when she came outside to see Jonathan riding it, exclaiming "There's a 50 pound limit!"

One of the highlights of our visit was playing Dance Dance Revolution on my sister's Playstation. Dean and one of his cousins, Britton, loved to take turns dancing on the mats.

My mother set up a craft night for us girls and we made sign boards with my sister's new cricut. I made mine to put in the boys' room. It says "Toys, Boys, Noise"
Jonathan is definitely that favorite uncle in the family (for obvious reasons). My sister Shelby's (pictured above) kids absolutely love him.

Here is Sydney with her favorite little cousin Dawson. She was so good to him and he gave her smiles all day long.
Grandpa Ray getting big smiles out of Dawson. Dawson pretty much stole everyone's heart while we were home with his big smiles and sweet personality.

Me and my favorite boy!
This is one of my sisters, Shelby
Dean was pretty obsessed with this tricycle. I can't wait until we get a driveway so Dean can learn to ride one.
