Christmas Day

On Christmas day I had to work from 06-14 (2pm)
As usual we had a yummy potluck!
We also had a ton of people.. so I was able to go home a little earlier

That dang Chris is too cute and too good to Kennedy and I 
She had two candy bars
One she wanted to set out for Santa
One she wanted to eat but didnt finish her dinner the night before so she told us to put both out for Santa since she didnt eat all her food she couldnt have her candy bar
I stopped at picked her up from her dads on my way home from work..
To mine and her surprise Santa had left this letter we found when we got home
We opened all our presents
We are completely spoiled!!!
It was a great Christmas
Kennedy got some clothes, barbies, movies, new toothbrush and toothpaste, princess washcloths
Chris got a vest, hunting vest, shirts, hats, spotlight, some movies, treats, new phone case
I got some new Girls with Guns shirts (three to be exact! They are my fav brand) hunting socks I wanted, a slingshot and marbles (yes I totally wanted that too) ammo, skullcandy earbuds, ammo bag, speakers for my phone, candy and this cute new apron!!
Peanut was a little spoiled!
We headed from there over to Roy and Kats where Kennedy got a cute VTECH laptop from them
Then we went over to Todd and Jana's to open presents where we were all spoiled again!

Kennedy got a Cinderella vanity, two princess books, a set of princess barbies a Squinkies house
Ry got all kinds of cute toys and books
Jana happened to get the Ducks Unlimited wine set she pretty much got into a knock down fight with Abbie Dickamore at the banquet over :) She was a little surprised
Todd and Jana had an awesome presents for Chris and I
The gave Chris & I and Ash & Derek the same thing
A nice big cooler and filled it with meat
Two BIG totes stacked 3 layers deep full of food! 
Canned veggies, boxes of rice and noodles, cake mixes, ramen noodles, manwhich, chili etc
There were about 600 items in the two totes!
It was perfect!!
Takes care of our food storage and its things we will use.. and save us money throughout the year

All our parents did really good at giving us practical gifts that we needed and can really put to use instead of just frivolous things
My parents gave us a food processor, vacuum sealer, baking pans
Jimmy and JaNeale gave us bath towels, kitchen towels, bath mat..
And then Todd and Jana's present

We did get fun things too but the practical stuff was so nice
We are just starting out and its things we needed but wouldn't necessarily spend the money on
 After Todd and Jana's we went home to take a nap!
Well Kennedy and I did
We were beat

When she woke up Daddy Chris had set up and assembled ALL her presents
Then he showed her how to use it all :)
Then we went back over to Todd and Jana's for dinner
The boys got into a wrestling match on the couch 
It took Chris and Hunter to take on Todd because neither one dared try it alone.. and Dad still can whoop both them
It doesn't look like it but Todd actually had both them begging about right here
We had such an amazing Christmas from ALL our families
So blessed
So loved
and so spoiled!
