Christmas 2009

Tyler, Libby & Zack

Ready to come down and see what Santa brought.

All three of them were obviously on the nice list!

Libby was excited to get things for her American Girl Doll.

Zack got more Bakugan things.

Tyler got a Zhu Zhu pet!

Steve was happy with his new boots,
but his happiness soon passed as he got this job....


Can they make it any harder to get toys out of the package??? It took forever!!

We had a great Christmas morning and then we went to my parent's house for my favorite Christmas meal....Norwegian pancakes!


My kids were so excited because they are very spoiled by Grandma & Pa-Pa!
We had a great time eating and opening presents. Then there was a knock at the door and we found this.....


Water running out of my parents front yard all the way down the street!

The main water pipe broke!

The poor city worker got to spend Christmas at my parent's house too! Unfortunately, it wasn't an easy fix.


It started with digging & digging...

Then it got dark & they sent the big trucks....

They cut a big hole out of the driveway & were still working when we left, but they did finally get it fixed!!


It added a little excitement this year!
Luckily, for Grandpa it was the pipe close enough to the street, so he didn't have to pay for all that work to be done!!
We are all very blessed & so glad for the fun day together!!
Here are a few more pictures from our fun day....
