{So Santa Came After All}

Well I Hope you all had a Great Christmas just like we did! My parents came down here to the valley to spend Christmas with us cause it was there turn and Jake had to work Christmas Day so we couldn't be up in the mountains. Christmas Eve we had Gumbo at My Aunt Donna's house that was fun we usually eat at my dads moms but we were down here the gumbo was great as usual. The boys were concerned with Santa being able to come to our little apartment that has no chimney. But we assured them Santa is magic and he always finds a way! And he did of course he even had reinforcements this year ha ha That's my favorite part Helping Santa!
Christmas Morning was fun Although we did miss Jake he was at work by six and he didn't get home till two in the afternoon Cory wasnt so into Christmas Its always funny to me to see how differently little kids react to Christmas some of them get it really early in life others like my Cory really could care less about unwrapping presents. He would rather play with a stick. But he had fun with his uncles and he did have a favorite present I think. As you can see from the picture below he is not a morning person just like his Mama

Jared and Garrett
Cory this is one of the two presents he sorta opened by himself the rest I had to open
he would rather sit on the presents and eat every ones candy
He did Love his fishing puzzle from Grandma. She also made him some sweet horse Pj's and he wouldn't wear them! They are so cute and when I put the pants on Christmas eve night he kept crying and throwing a fit saying Stuck I stuck I stuck. So that explains the no clothes two year olds!
His other Favorite toy from his Uncles his horse!
My parents gave me this puzzle the reason they gave it to me is a long story but we decided to do it Christmas day and we finally finished the next day. It was fun I think Jake is the only one that didn't help with it. He isn't the puzzle type. The same night we finished the puzzle we ate some pizza then stayed up till 1:30 playing Monopoly I was the winner it was down to me and Jake and I kicked his trash! I even beat my Dad which was exciting cause I have never seen him loose in Monopoly. I must be awesome!

Well we had a great Christmas Hope you all did as well!!

Looks like so much fun! I would love if the New Year brought us closer...perhaps sooner than 2020 though. Give that cute man a squeeze for me. He is a little stud in all his diaper glory!
