Havre Pictures

We braved the crowds today and did the day after Christmas sale. Got some really good deals. TONS of Christmas stuff. We should have a very lighted Christmas yard next year. What fun! The last store Jacob went to had what he had been looking for, a lighted crystal snowman. They normally run 60 here, Jacob got it for 20! What a deal. :D I'll have to take a picture of our yard after it is up to show you all. After all our shopping, we came home and had ham sandwiches while Daddy put some of our newly found treasures in the yard. After we had our bellies full we decided to watch a Christmas movie.

After the movie, we did what we never do, had pie and icecream right before bed. Mmmm, I just hope Elijah will be able to sleep now! Sugar can have quite the affect on him. He's so sweet though. While we were eating our pie, Tabitha was in her swing all by herself. Elijah felt sorry for her, so he drew her a person on a piece of paper and then taped it to her swing so "She wouldn't be all by herself."

Now the kids are in bed and the dishes are in the dishwasher, so I thought that I would finish this up. Been working on it off and on for the past 9 hrs. lol Hope you all enjoy them.

We brought our stuff to the porch while we waited for Caleb and Mandie to get there.













Emilee giving Moriah love.




The next day.









This is the game we were all playing in the next picture. So fun thinking game, I don't remember the name. Elijah took this and the next picture, pretty good huh?




LOL! Once again, I have no idea what he was doing. Jacob must have taken this pic.



Emilee



I tried my hand at a french braid in Emilee's hair.




The next day we did a side braid. It was cute.



That night we had all the kids lay in the living room to watch a couple movies while we played Nights and Cities. Moriah and Josiah eventually fell asleep.



At Nancy's house the next day.


Emilee was so cute.


Mandie's 8 months picture. She looks so small to me.


We had no coffee pot, so Caleb and Jacob improvised.



Jacob wasn't the only one getting tired. :)


After my kids went to bed, Mandie and Caleb laid Emilee down on the loveseat at Nancy's house. She was real good and quiet, but when we looked back while playing our game, we saw two little eyes peeking out at us. Awwww...



Emilee finally fell asleep.



Our third night in a row of 2 am game playing. Can you tell we were tired?



How do some girls make weird faces, but still manage to look cute?



A pretty, but very tired Mandie.


Family shot.
Mandie, Emilee, and Caleb



Slightly tired kids waiting on us to get in the van to head back to CFalls.



A half an hour after we left Havre, all my kids were asleep.


There you go Sis. Nancy. How did you like them?
