Present Time

I loved watching the kids open their presents this year!  They spend a lot of time coming up with their own gifts, which was so sweet to watch.  Our thrift store even had an event where the kids went in alone and got to have employee helpers pick out gifts and help them wrap the items.  So I sent the kids in with an idea list and a couple dollars and they came out with wrapped presents.  It was probably the first time I wasn't in on every gift except my own.  And the kids were so excited about it.
I love how their matching pajamas turned out!  And tried to make them all big enough to fit for next year as well.  So hopefully no one will grow more then expected.







 Calista really loves her baby doll.



One thing the kids got this year was a monthly subscription to amazons STEM kits.  Tucker was especially excited about this.


Bob and I like to stick with giving the kids each something they want, something they need, something to wear, and something to read.  It seems like the perfect amount without going overboard.  The kids also usually get some gifts from other family members as well, so they feel like they have a lot.

 The karaoke machine, and flashing lights were a hit!
