Christmas on the Oalmann Side

Tonight was Christmas Eve. The whole family always gets together on Christmas Eve for a huge food and gift blowout. This year was no exception. We had the festivities at our house this year which is always stressful but fun. This year I think moma counted somewhere like 90 people at the house. It was fun though. I didn't really get a chance to carry my camera around but I did take a couple. One of the pictures is of the Christmas tree with only HALF of the presents under it. Everybody wasn't even there yet when I took this picture. Anyway, we had a great night. The kids got lots of great stuff. Elena loves having everyone over. She would have a party everyday if she thought I would let her. And Landon loved it. He literally walked around all night going from one person to another getting food from them. It was like an all night buffet for him. Merry Christmas everyone!

Christmas on the Adams side

Sorry it has been so long since I posted. I have been terrible about it lately. Next year will be better.

We had Christmas on daddy's side of the family today. It was great. It is always good to see everyone and we don't get to go over there enough. Our babies are the only babies over there now. All of the other kids are so grown up already. Melissa is engaged, Jennifer probably will be soon. It is hard to believe they are old enough for that already.

Here are a few pictures of everyone over there.

Landon's favorite thing while opening presents was the red tulle on the packages.

Christmas Tree in the Snow

Today we went to pick out our Christmas tree. We chose this morning, the morning after it snowed all night to do this. It was freezing. The kids did not want to be out there in that weather. The trees looked great though all covered in snow. It almost felt like we were someplace else. We all walked around and picked out our tree. Elena and Landon helped Dddy cut the tree down and then we all waited in the warm truck while Daddy and the tree farm people shook it, wrapped it and loaded it. It was just too cold for us to participate any further this year.
