Christmas Craziness...

ALUMNI TOURNY
This year Devin played in the Skyline Highschool alumni tournament on the 26th & 27th of December. It is always fun to watch him play with and against the same guys we watched him play with in highschool. His team did really well, but they lost two really close games and ended up taking 3rd. The very first game they played just so happended to be my class.



A SEWING MACHINE
This year for Christmas Grandma Wood made everyone jammies. The grandkids all looked so cute in thiers so we tried to get a picture of all of them but just like anytime you try to get a picture of lots of little kids there is always at least one who will not cooperate...can you see which kid it is in these pics? ... who's kid is that anyway?


Besides the jammies, Grandma Wood also made all the grandkiddos costumes for dressup. The boys got the cutest little cowboy outfits ever and the girls got cheerleader outfits. Ya, ya, ya, I never thought I would be ok seeing Cal in a cheer uniform either, but she just looks so darn cute in it. As long as she gets it out of her system before it is time to start the fun stuff... SPORTS!! ;) I have to point out the candid shot we got of Trevor Pett (our bro in law)in the background!! haha


Here are some pics of the kiddos with some of their other favorite Christmas gifts. For the last 4 months or so Calyn has been begging for a mermaid tail. She was certain that if she had a mermaid tail she could wear it in the water and swim like Ariel. Well, of course we couldn't give her a REAL mermaid tail (those mermaid don't just give them away for free you know) but Mom figured she would do the next best thing and make her a pretend one. Nana to the rescue, Cal loved it! She still has hopes that someday she can use it in the water, but for the moment she is satisfied. Nana and Papa also got her the leapster 2 she is playing in the pics and they got Ry the wagon he is riding in. He wouldn't get out of that thing all day!! He loved it! When we got there Christmas morning he walked right up to it like he knew it was his (it was hiding behind a couch and he still found it right off). Uncle Sky got Ry the guitar (of course) and that smart Santa brought Cal the bike even though it is the middle of winter...Cal wanted to follow us to Nana & Papa's on her bike Christmas morning.

Such cute pictures, I don't know where to begin. First, The picture of all the grankids is so funny, it must be the age because it's always Evelyn who is crying like Rylan was.
The Christmas jammies are so awesome, you are so lucky to have such a great mother-in-law.
Rylan looks like a real rocker with his guitar and his messy hair, and I especially like the candid pic of Trevor. So funny.
