Christmas Times Eight!

This year was more fun than last with Matt. He really liked opening presents and didn't get to terribly cranky. I know the title says times eight, but I only had the sense of mind to take pictures at five of them. That is over half so I think I won that! Go Me! Enjoy our Christmas adventures.

It looks like Uncle Bill and Kristy know exactly what Matt likes.

CARS!!!

Christmas Morning!

Santa came to see all of us because we were all good this year.

Of course the ones Sophie and Ava are in Matt ran away,

so this was the best shot with Matt.

Oh What Ornament Fun!

Matt's Very Cool Ornament

Matt does think Buzz is broken since he can't get him out of the box.

He is mad because I won't let him have the camera.

Poor Boogie!

Next morning still very excited to see his ornament. 

 

AJ and I decided this year we would enjoy our ornaments on the tree instead of opening them as presents on Christmas. I may have talked him into it a little bit, but I really wanted Matt to enjoy his ornament. As you can see he does very much! 

Then it was time for AJ and I to exchange our ornaments to each other. I am sure most of you will believe this because he and I really are this way. We got each other the same one. I guess that happens when you take Matt along and let him pick it out. AJ is going to keep it since it is way more a "Dad" ornament then a "Mom" one and we are going to go to the store and pick mine out together.

*** I had a picture of mine and AJ's ornaments next to each other because I thought it was cute, but stupid blogger is taking forever to upload one stinking picture. So everyone will have to go without seeing our cuteness this time***

My Apologies...

Hello All-

I want you to know for the record I have not forgotten about the blog. I actually have some pictures that I just need to upload on the computer. Our Minnesota trip was wonderful, but we never took out our camera. That is why I don't have any on our blog. However you can go to Katie's blog (it is under Tyler in my other bloggers section) to see all the fun filled family time had by Matt. 

Getting home and getting settled with the holiday season has been a little more difficult than I thought. Also having AJ home all the time (I am not complaining. I love it!) has put the blog on the back burner. However he will have to start going back to campus soon (at least for 1/2 days) and Boogie Planet will be back up and running again.

Sorry for the lull-

Matt's Mom
