Christmas 2011

It was a little bit different Christmas this year.  Normally, we are home in Colorado, lots of people, and ridiculous amounts of food and presents.  Santa had to change up his plans a bit this year and follow us to Washington.

We really enjoyed being there and spending Christmas with Kryste and the kids, as well as Gramma, Franks parents, brother, SIL and nephew.  And yes, there were plenty of presents and food! 
and matching pajamas for all the kids! Thanks Gramma

Santa came…

Fast forward….came back home to Colorado and did Christmas AGAIN!  Grandma Cindy brought over the gifts from her and Papa and G-Gma & G-Gpa Collins.  These kids are spoiled and will be going thru old toys in the next week and donating.

Adalyn decided to forgo her own pile of gifts and go for wrapping paper she liked in other peoples piles.  Luckily the boys didn’t notice and no fights broke out.

Gavyn taste-tested all gifts before allowing Prestyn to open them for him.

A little bit different Christmas, but still a good one.
