Christmas




Christmas was definitely memorable this year, just not quite in the way we would have liked. It started out very nicely....We went out for a yummy sushi lunch together and them went to a candlelight Christmas Eve service to hear a friend sing. We then headed over to the Chandlers for dinner....but..... Mike got sick with the stomach flu after about an hour at his parents , so we headed home. Within hours the rest of us (except Cade who had it 3 days before) started getting sick. I'll spare you the details, but lets just say we spent most of Christmas Eve night and Christmas Day on the couch with several bowls!

Cade woke up at 7:30 and wondered where everyone was and came downstairs. I told him he had to go back to bed for atleast an hour because everyone was sick. He was so patient and such a trooper. There were very few pictures and no video, no big breakfast, but here are a few. Christmas Dinner consisted of Sprite and Popsicles. We hung out on the couch as a family and watched a marathon of Storage Wars....
Cole rallied for a little bit to see what Santa brought, but it definitely caught up with him later.
London also took a very quick peek...for the record, that popsicle didn't stay down.
Cade and Cole both got Tony Hawk skateboards.
London got new bedding and bedroom stuff, how did Santa know she would be in bed all Christmas Day!
Thank goodness for Legos, they helped entertain Cade....

LOVE LOVE the bedding!! That pillow is so easy to make (that I copied off your living room one). I'll tell you how I did it. I can't believe you guys were so sick. Makes me feel bad for you guys. I'm glad you're better now but what a Christmas to remember.
