Christmas

We had 5 Christmas gatherings, and Mason & Braelyn made quite the haul! So on Monday we cleaned out old/broken and mismatched toys and brought them to the Goodwill.  You can only see 5 garbage bags in the pic, but one is hiding underneath on the left, and after I took the pic, I added one in that open space and threw one in the back seat.  Even after getting rid of the 8 bags full of toys, the kids still have plenty to play with. In fact I think they like this better because they can actually find what they're looking for, and the upstairs isn't so cluttered (which I like). 

Mason likes his new work bench set he got from his Aunt Sonja, along with some power tools from Santa!

Santa brought Braelyn a playmat...she's not sure what to do with it.

Mason kept getting games for a Wii (a gun for hunting games, steering wheel w/ mario kart, & some games), even though we didn't have a Wii.  He was starting to get upset because we kept teasing him about it, but finally he opened his present from his Godmother, Jenny! He got his Wii!

The kids doing Cheers! Yes the boy on the right is a KID, he's just in disguise!

Marshmellow gun was a hit!

And so was the DS from Shilice!
