Since the clock and calendar are about to click over to a new year, it's probably time to document our holiday highlights.
We were lucky to spend time with both sides of our family this year. First with the Robinsons...
(Blogger is driving me out of my ever-lovin' mind and I can't get pictures in the right order or size...and I give up!)

My sister made me this blanket and I love it! So soft and cuddly! |
|
The boys with their Christmas Eve PJ's from Grandma |
|
Colin asked for cowboy boots and a cowboy hat and Grandpa and Grandma delivered! |
|
Seth wanted "indoor soccer shoes" and once again Grandpa and Grandma came through. |
|
As a Christmas gift this year mommy and daddy gave Seth and Colin their own rooms. They spent the night before at Aunt Kelly's while John and I worked on getting their rooms ready. It was a complete surprise. They each opened a small box that told them they could find their present upstairs. |

Then this happened...
* I was in charge of filming Colin's reaction and John was in charge of filming Seth's and since posting to Blogger is currently like trying to build a house of cards, you'll just have to get this perspective.
After a few days with my parents we headed to Oklahoma to visit John's side of the family.

This is how you transport a Christmas tree in the country. |
|
I love decorating the cabin for Christmas. We hunt for a real tree on Christmas Eve and decorate with whatever we can find. This year we found the perfect tree. Some years the tree is tiny and other years its gigantic. This year it was just right. And I made garland out of cedar branches and real live holly. I feel like Laura Ingalls! |

The boys with cousin Lane |
We had a wonderful Christmas...now onto the new year!

How cool! Miss you guys! The boys are growing so fast. I tried to talk your dad into spurs, but he wanted you to stay happy. :). I wonder if wooden spur would be almost as cool, but less sharp...
