Hopefully, this blog will allow me to have a type of scrap book to look back on at memories and pictures while allowing you to keep up with our little gang of Gardners!

Santa Clause Came to Town
Our Christmas tradition starts off with Mamaw's house on Christmas eve, it always is more than imaginable. Mamaw(Ray's mom) really likes to spoil us all at Christmas time and she makes sure that everyone gets what they want or need! This year was no exception!
Santa came!! Wahoo!! Christmas this year was great! We got a little bit of snow, enough for everyone to post pone the 3 Christmas dinners we were supposed to attend. All the kids managed sleeping in our room on Christmas eve night and so they slept really late and finally Bry woke up and only after a few moments he remembered it was Christmas morning. He went to the living room to check it out and he came back and said, "whoa guys you gotta come see this!!", and woke Colton and Brin! Seeing their little faces is PRICELESS! I was in tears watching their little eyes scan over all the presents and my heart melted to know how blessed we are to give our kids everything they wanted!
Colton had asked Santa to bring him a helmet and a motorcycle to go with his jeep, tractor, and four wheeler in the garage and Santa delivered.
Bry asked for "dragonoid colossus" the ultimate bakugan with battle gears as he would describe it
Brinley still doesnt talk but she wanted the "baby alive" that bounced up and down. Every time we went to Walmart for anything at all she would cry for 'kiss kiss' that baby doll!
So after the kids got most of their presents opened, we had some lunch with Ray's mom, Lisa, Gabe, and Aly at our house since all of us had prepared food for all these meals it turned out to be a fantastic lunch.
We got to stay in our 'jams' all day and the kids played with ALL the new toys they got.
I must say it felt a little different not having to go to GG's, Madisonville, and my moms but getting to spend the whole day with the kids at home was great!
We didn't get to have Christmas at my mom's this year because our entire family had the stomach flu for 3 weeks starting the day after Christmas so I only have one picture from her house because it took a ton of effort to even go over there to let the kids open presents.
All and all it was a great Christmas!
