Saturday December 3

WOW!  Mom had a huge Saturday planned and it was BUSY from the time we were up until we went to bed.  Mom always does an ornament decorating day with Brent's kids and their kids so for once ALL of their grandkids were in one place.  Their house was a zoo!  I simply couldn't have done it, but my mom is amazing.  She took it all in stride and was able to give everyone attention!  I guess that is what makes a good grandma.  The kids had a great time decorating.

All of the grand kids!  Not an easy accomplishment trying to get them all to smile at once.  Taylor who is next to Noah (both 6) each struggle smiling...seriously it looks like Taylor smiles like Noah does.  Way too funny!!!

Noah working on an ornament!

Saturday Night
After everyone finally left we got ready for the Christmas Lighted Parade in Rockton.  It was a nice little parade, however, it started to rain about half way through so we didn't make it through the entire parade.  But I got some great pictures of us.  And before it started to rain, the temperature was pretty decent!
After the parade the kids FINALLY got to open their Christmas gifts!  What a great way to end the day. 

Everyone posing for a quick picture!

Memphis staying warm and sleeping!  Believe it or not he was so warm in there!  But when the rain came to the car he had to go!

Jaycee so excited for the parade!

Trying to take a family picture.  Didn't go so well!

Had to prove I was actually at the parade

Present Time!

Ok, so before presents we had to eat dinner!  Homemade pizza! 

Memphis loving his Iowa Bear!!! 

Noah showing off his 3 Stooges Movies, this kid absolutely loves the 3 Stooges.  On the way home he was watching them and his laughter was so funny. 

Then we have our cookie plate for Santa!
