It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year (Part 3)

On Christmas day, Tyler got to make the Swedish pancakes with his dad for his first year (his brother, Ryan, usually does it). He did a great job - and the traditional brunch was just as heavenly as ever. He DID say that it was a lot harder than he thought. I am so glad he has learned ... this is a tradition that needs to continue in our family always.

Here are the cute kiddos taking some chill time before Swedish pancakes.

Thanks to Teener - my kids decided they wanted Webkinz for Christmas. And ... Tina - you did NOT disappoint Christmas day as you walked Miss through the set up. She is pretty much obsessed with it now (which means it's a great incentive for her to get her work done :))!

Here's the kitchen crew Christmas morning. It's a lot of work to get everything ready ... but sure worth it!

We're missing most of the gang ... but here we are enjoying the yummy brunch. The Ryan and Lori clan made it later, but we sure missed Jers and Plonns!

We (well, okay - Tina) put together a scrap book of each grandchild (the kids filled out a questionaire - and wrote down their favorite memory with gma and gpa - we provided pics) for Grover and DeAnn for Christmas. It was a big hit. We ALL enjoyed it! Brandon and Tina surprised us all by putting pics of the ultra sound of their baby at the end ... Amy (it's a girl!!).

Aaron had a transformer year - and is loving it. He got transformers from both sets of grandparents (here he is after opening a transformer from gma and gpa Jenson). He has them proudly displayed on his dresser as I type. :)

Whew! Just a few more parts to our holiday adventures to go! :) hahaha.
