Merry Christmas!!

We have had a wonderful Christmas Day. Last night we had a good talk with the kids about the true meaning of Christmas. Then we opened our traditional one present {PJ} and watched a Allen Family Christmas tradition "Christmas Vacation". Then the kids went to bed. Later Santa came and traps were set. Jared set a motion detector and it went off a few times. We sent kids back to bed. At 645 am the kids were ready to get up. They came in to our room and we held them off until 715 but that was the limit. :). They were SO excited to see what Santa brought.

Abby got an iPod touch. Art kit, clothes and nail polish stuff and 10 box car children books.

Logan also got an iPod touch. 4-5-6 Star Wars movies. Some angry bird plush, and lots of other stuff.

Gracie got a princess aurora doll. Lalaloopsies clothes and more.

Ethan got a marble works set, an angry bird racetrack. Clothes bedtime stories and more.

Jared got a mobile recording unit. Microphone and stand. New clothes and a monster truck and a Star Wars lightsaber to play with Logan.

As for me-- I was surprised with a bread maker - attachments for my kitchenaide a. ( a cheese shredder and an ice cream maker). 3 stories on cd and more.

It was a great day. I love our little family and I'm grateful for our Savior. :)
