Christmas 2011

Payton woke up early on Christmas to see what Santa brought. She could not wait to open up all of her presents. Logan was happy too but I think for the most part he was just taking it all in. He did seem to eye my candy and some other things. After our stockings and presents that were under the tree were open we ate some yummy pancakes and played with our new toys. Payton played football with Daddy on Kinect sports.'









Later that afternoon we went over to Grandma and Grandpa Verver’s house for dinner and opened more presents. It was the Christmas of Pillow pets – funny thing is two of the three who received them were adults, not sure who was more excited…  One was almost 4. I do wonder why the other child didn’t get one… Anyway we had a good time opening gifts and then watching the kids play with the toys. Payton and Grandma put on a concert using Logan’s new toys.  Later Logan and I hung out and enjoyed the fire – he was mesmerized by it. Payton brought some pretend food to Rosie. A little later Great Grandma Visser came with Howard, Harlean and Debbie to have dessert and go to Candy Cane Lane. Payton and Great Grandma had a great time playing with the wooden dolls she got we had to tear them away so they could have some dessert. Candy Cane Lane was fun and we took our pictures in our two favorite spots. We have done this before we had kids so it is another long standing tradition for us.
