MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

This Christmas was WONDERFUL!!! We had lots of fun at all the parties we went to, but most importantly we had Karston here to make it so fun and special! I don't think he actually understood what or why he was getting presents on this particular day, but he sure had fun opening and then trying to figure out how everything worked. These pics are all out of order and I just don't feel like fighting my computer to put them in the correct order! SORRY!!!

One more apology.... We went to my in-laws, but being the HORRIBLE parents we are we forgot to take pictures of that event. We had a great time. Karston got some AWESOME presents and I will take pictures and post them soon. We had a wonderful dinner made by Grandma and just had tons of fun being together. Terry got a fun clay pigeon game and it was funny watching all the boys trying to outdo each other shooting the targets. We had lots of fun and love you guys tons THANK YOU THANK YOU for everything!

Grammie and Grampie Mullen gave Karston this AWESOME tool set! It was so funny watching Doug put this together you had to use the toy tools in order to set it up! Karston also helped! He LOVES it! Thanks Gramie and Grampie!

We got him this Rocking Chair. In case you can't tell it has his name across the top and then below that it has a juke box with music notes coming out. We figured since he loves to dance and he loves music so much that would be fitting. We thought it turned out way cute. Now we just have to stain it!

We also gave him this cute little four-wheeler! Now I don't know if that was such a great idea. He uses it, but mostly for this purpose! In fact it was funny... the other day he was standing like this except his foot stepped on the button and made it go. Luckily he was hanging on to the sink so he didn't get hurt, but for some reason he doesn't stand on the handle bars anymore. Wonder how long that will last!

Grandma and Grandpa Dann and Jeanine gave him this cool 1938 Fire engine peddle car. He was soooooo excited for this little hummer to get put together. It is absolutly darling. It has a hose, ladders, and a bell on the front. So cute! Thanks you all. We love you and I think we all witnessed how much Karston loves his new ride!!!

Grandma and Grandpa Cox were so kind! They win the prize for the most ANNOYING toy, but a very LOVED toy as well. It really is a darling horse, but Karston has figured out where the buttons are that make it Ney and Ney some more, then clip clop, and wag its tail. Karston really loves it but more than anything he just loves to stand in front of it and push the ears and make it go. I have looked, but I can't tell where the batteries are kept.... I hope it isn't one of those toys that will never die. Oh well I guess.... It makes Karston happy and that is all that matters right? :P RIGHT!!!

So every year on the Cox side they do a Christmas exchange. We all draw names and then you get a gift for that person. Well Doug has done something with his face every year so far. Well my cousin Jacquelin got his name this year and I thought her idea was rather creative. He got a plaid shirt and then she went through some old pictures and made a lovely collage on it. Then at the bottom it reads " GOT FAMILY?" Doug gave her a shirt a few years ago with his picture on it and his said at the bottom "GOT DOUG?" Anyways here is her BEAUTIFUL work! Thanks Jacquelin HE LOVES IT!!!
