Thanksgiving to Christmas

Hello again everyone....here are some pictures from Thanksgiving and Christmas....it was a pretty fun time!!The kids came to Mount Carmel a bit before Thanksgiving and here they are amusing themselves in true Mount Carmel fashion....mindlessly lol....

fashion statements!






On Thanksgiving every year the Church holds the turkey bowl...we brought a lot of participants this year with Tony, Andrew, AJ, Aaron and Alek all playing

if you click on this picture an make it bigger you can see Alek's face really well...I love his face in this picture!

GO AARON!!! WOO!
you would think Andrew and AJ are best friends!
I spoke too soon!
man Bishop way to body slam someone!
OH!!! that looks like it hurt!
here are Asher and Donald making sure the hot chocolate is safe to drink.





haha I just like this picture because of Aaron

are you guys tripping him??
GO ALEK!!
wow...
after the turkey bowl the kids and Tony had to cut down some wood...

teamwork!

hmm...welcome to the tot lot!
ATTACK!!
after Thanksgiving I went with Amy's family to pick a tree for Christmas!

doesn't Asher loo like an elf?
Asher kept yelling Avada Kadavra!!! it was cute
and so they picked a tree...
and then they cut it down.

oh this is not gonna end good!


before Christmas we also went to see Santa!
Amy's kids with Santa!
add Grayson...
subtract 8 and you get Grayson's first visit with Sana
Hazel had Amy open her present before Christmas...
a blanket!
here are pictures of the kids on Christmas eve....everyone opens their Pj's on Christmas eve


when Amy opened hers Donald looks at it and say "mom you didn't get any pants!!!"


Andrew wasn't allowed to sleep in his room because we didn't want him to disturb santa....so here is where he decided to sleep.
we figured out that if everyone in the house got everyone else 1 present and everyone got 1 present from Santa, 1 present from grandma and grandpa Flack, 1 present from Hazel and Greg, and 1 present from Mary and Jeff that equals 165 presents....they didn't only get one from each source
here is Christmas morning...
























Hey who gave you that awesome gift of 5 pounds of gummy bears Tony?....hmm
Alyssa actually cried when she opened up her riding boots it was cute.


Andrew and Aj had to wait until the very last present to get their dream gift the xbox 360.

hope you enjoyed those....there are more to come so keep checking back
