Getting Ready for the Big Day

Tyson's first present - signing his own name. 

Then he does this one - what the heck? He knows how to write his name! He also knows his phone number...when asked it's S-O-N-O-P and he's insistent that's his number :)

Pandora had the best kids Christmas Station - Devin liked it :) 

Morgan and Kaitlyn got the car ready to go to Thompson Falls... 

Morgan even got the cat to load up. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So a million things happened between the kids loading up their 'car' and us loading up and heading for TFalls. Mommy packed while Daddy caught some sleep - at 3:30am we were ready to leave and noticed a flat tire on the camper - so one new tire later we left at 5am and headed west.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Daddy drove - Mommy slept. 
Then Daddy setup the camper - Mommy slept :) Grandpa tried to talk Theron into putting Christmas lights on the trailer but it didn't happen.

 The girls conned Grandpa into a ride within minutes of us being there. 

 Daddy got his mobile office setup so he could make some calls.

Christmas Eve we spent the day with Nana and Big Pop Pop. Here were the boys in their matching shirts before we left.

 When we got home the kids helped Grandpa and Ginny feed the horses w/ the tractor. Tyson volunteered to drive. 

There were nice big fluffy snow flakes while we were out - made it really feel like Christmas!

In the back room (where the kids get to play) they had been practicing for their Exercise Concert.

 All the adults had to come back and watch their concert and to say it was funny was an understatement. 
 We left there in tears from laughing so hard...and a mental note to help Tyson learn how to do push-ups. 

 The kids heading out to the camper to watch a movie and let Santa Claus come.

It was later but he did manage to find us.
