So the sunday before Christmas my brother, Doug and sister, Samm arrived.
The day they arrived we realized some fleas, so we decided to flea bomb our house the next day to get rid of them before our family arrived.
I love how we have a fireplace in our home. Makes the Holidays so much more homey and warm.
When my Mom, Dad, and Sister (Julie) arrived Christmas Eve this is what they brought:
Happy boy! ;-p
My parents also gave Scott and I their Santa Fe SUV!!!! We now have two cars! I'm so grateful for my Dad and appreciative of his generosity.
Games
Stockings hung up on the wall :-)
Our cute Christmas tree and all the presents
Doug found the pickle!

Being Goofs and wearing my Christmas PJ's
One of the nights we went to the Winter Wonderland light display.
They had 3-D Glasses to wear...oh boy, it was trippy.
This is the lights through the glasses. Though this pic doesn't really capture how neat it was

Stacey arrived in Kansas friday evening.
The first place we went all together was "Speck's Bar and Grill". We totally have our own bar! Haha, but they had 3 lb burgers there, so we got that and shared it. Fed 8 people! Poor dad couldn't come out to the restaurant because he was sick, but we brought some home for him.
Wesley, my nephew, could possibly be the cutest baby in the entire Universe....
Expressions while watching "Warrior":
....I don't have an explanation for this picture....
We were able to visit the Topeka zoo, which was actually quite fun.
Everyone taking turns with Wesley
We had our own little Christmas party an had a White Elephant Gift exchange.
We also played some games
Another night we went to a neighborhood called "Potwin", which they are all required to decorate for Christmas/ It's neat to drive through and see the neighborhood roundabouts with interesting facts about different country's and how they celebrate Christmas and all the decorations on each house.
Like I said, Cutest baby in the entire Universe!
New Years "Candy Bar Game"
Walking around the Washburn Campus, Mom made a friend.
....And Stacey got stuck....;-p
I love this picture!
Gwargeous Stacey
New Years Eve we celebrated by playing games, Talking, and eating pizza!
Happy New Year!
Some Christmas Decor Pictures:
So New Years day we took Stacey to the airport and while out in Kansas City we stopped by the Cabellas.
The next day we took my mom and dad to the airport and after we dropped them off we drove around Kansas City to see what there was to see. Then when I got home it just hit me, it was so quite and I already started missing my family. I cried the rest of the evening and watched movies with Scott.
Had such a wonderful Holiday with my family. So glad they all made it out for the holidays!
