I always love seeing the kids when they peek downstairs. This year they all woke up at 3am ("Heavens no!"), 5am ("Back to bed!"), and then for good around 7. Sunshine got a giant remote control car that can flip over and switch wheel positions. You can also see Cloudburst's one desire- a play kitchen. Yes, she is 7 years old, but that's what she really wanted!
For months and months, Tornado has talked of nothing but Stinky the Garbage Truck! He was so happy to see this smelly friend!
Here is the only picture of me, the hazards of being the family photographer.
All of our kids have a fold-out couch in their rooms for sleepovers (and a place to sleep in the middle of the night if they wet the bed) and Sunrise finally got his!
Some new jammies, socks and a new stealth gun.
Sunrise was really only interested in the chocolate in the stockings. He hid small pieces and kept finding them and eating them throughout the day.
And here is Thunder's amazing brain at work! This game is called MindFlex, and it really does read the intensity of your brain waves. Depending on how "hard" you are thinking, it turns on a fan below the little blue ball.
Like every year, we all feel so blessed. We were able to be surrounded by family this week and talk to others we miss on the phone. And we feel truly grateful for the Gospel for our little family. We hope you all had a truly wonderful Christmas!
