Christmas 2008

The Gingerbread house.
Auntie Linda sent this home with us at Thanksgiving. Approx. 8 hours, 3 sisters, and losing the roof a couple of times this was our finished product:-) Thanks Auntie Linda!

Going to see Santa. Addison wanted nothing to do with him, and we had to tell Peyton that there were other kids in line that wanted to talk to him......

He was going on, and on, and on!

Christmas Eve.....Addison stay out of Santa's cookies!

Christmas morning! A bow and arrow was all Peyton asked for Christmas this year. He was so excited when he opened this. This is the picture right before cranking back on it a bit too hard and busting it right in HALF!! Oh man DRAMA.....he was in tears saying Christmas was ruined, running to his room. I am laughing at the situation now (and someday you will too Peyton) but that was a little rough! Dad did seem to remedy the situation a bit with the trusty ol duck tape. I wish I had the after picture with the "cast". He did make sure to tell us that we were to send it back to the North Pole and make those elves fix it! Something that his mother sure hasn't done yet....

Redmon Christmas Party.

After opening all of our gifts Christmas morning. We loaded up and headed into probably the worst snow storm we have had this year. When we got back our neighbors told us they had to have someone come and plow our driveway for us. I guess there was about a five foot pile of snow sitting in our driveway from the snow plough. But we did eventually make it to Grandma and Grandpa Redmons to do a bit of celebrating. Wow is that side of the family growing fast!

My little Addison was more interested in putting the bows in her hair than the presents......such a girlie girl!

Christmas Day night Santa stopped by on his way back to the North Pole. Peyton was sure glad to see him to tell him all about the bow incident!
