Christmas 2010

Christmas morning....

Elf Dobby left the kids a letter in the tree telling them they had one more surprise but they had to go on a scavenger hunt to find it....

There were pictures of various items in our house and each one led them to another destination...

Final destination was in the garage. We are going on another Disney cruise on January 23rd! They were so excited and even more excited when they found out Jeff and Jeni and their kids were going too!

Christmas Party with the Coons

Santa's arrival....

Notice Brin is heading the other direction. Not a big fan!

Carson

Connor

Bryton

I was shocked Brinley sat on his lap. She is terrified of Santa. I think she was feeling a little pressure since she was the last one!

Grandma and Grandpa even got to sit on his lap.

Dobby the Elf Visits!

We have a family elf named Dobby. He brought us all a surprise one night. We heard a strange knock at the door and this is what we found...

We even tried to track his footprints but they were nowhere to be seen...

Dobby left a letter introducing himself and telling them a little about him. He has been helping Santa for 467 years now and has freakin' huge ears! LOL... what a funny little guy. That was the boys' favorite part.

We all got new pajamas and slippers.

In Dobby's letter he had a video for the kids to watch. It was the elf yourself video and the kids laughed their heads off! They thought it was hilarious! I have never heard Brinley laugh so hard.

Thanks Dobby for our Christmas surprise!

Brinley's Program

Brin's preschool had a Christmas program. They sang songs and got to see Santa.

All the girls sang "Suzie Snowflake." So adorable!

October FUN!

Brin's pre school class went to the pumpkin patch and had a picnic. The kids had a ball picking out their own pumpkins. It started pouring and we didn't get many pictures. As soon as it started to rain, Brinley picked up the closest pumpkin to her and was ready to go.

Didericksen Family Halloween Party! We did the annual witch hunt and had some great entertainment by uncle Bud! I think he scared the kids for a good couple weeks. Tons of fun!

This year for Halloween Bryton and Connor dressed up as werewolfs. Carson was an alien and Brinley was a "scary" witch.

Not too scary but pretty darn cute!
