Waite Family Christmas

Christmas afternoon we went to G Ma and Papa's house to eat dinner and open presents.  We had the bomb dinner like always and then watched the kids open their presents.

My kids got spoiled this year like usual and it was a great way to end our Christmas!!!  We are so blessed to have such a wonderful family.

Slack Family Christmas Party

The Slack Christmas Party was at our house this year.  We started with breakfast.  We had eggs, pancakes, sausages, monkey bread, cinnamon rolls and orange rolls.  It was delicious.  We then played some minute to win it games.

It was very entertaining to watch the kids and adults play the games.

Christmas Morning

My kids were so excited for Christmas this year.  They woke up and say as patiently as they could while we woke Grandpa Slack up to come join us.

The twins woke up later so they opened their presents by themselves.  They loved the wrapping paper.

As my kids get older I think Christmas gets more fun.  I am so blessed to be the mommy to my 5 babies!!!

Christmas Eve

I love love love Christmas Eve.  Probably because I love traditions and Christmas Eve is filled with them.  This year we had my dad over to join in on the fun with us.

This year we did change up tradition.  We usually make homemade pizza but since Trevor and I don't really eat it we took a family vote and changed it to Pho.  My kids love it!!!

 

Opening our one Christmas gift on Christmas Eve

 

We then watched the Nightmare Before Christmas before we went to bed.  My dad spent the night so he could wake up and watch the kids open up presents.

 

Park Christmas Eve

I try to take advantage of Trevor being out of school for a couple of weeks by taking the kids out as much as possible.  We decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather on Christmas eve and go to the park and eat lunch.

 

KK's new thing to do in pictures is to throw up a peace sign so Trevor followed her lead.

It was a nice relaxing day!

Gingerbread houses for Santa

This Christmas was kind of crazy with the twins so we simplified where ever we could.  Each year we make Gingerbread houses and then we make a treat for Santa.  This year we combined the two and we made our Gingerbread houses for Santa's treat.

 

My kids eat so much candy while making the houses I am surprised any actually makes it onto the house....especially Corbin's.  I literally had to take his hand with candy and place it onto his house.  He had fun so that's what counts.

Finished products....by the way Santa loved his treat.  He ate probably half the houses.

KK School Christmas Performance

KK's school had a Christmas performance for all of second grade.  It was really cute to see all the kids dressed in their pj's with their reindeer hats.  They sang 4 or 5 different songs to us.  It was cool to see them sing and dance.

We were watching Gianna so she was able to come and see KK.
