christmas overload

christmas has come and gone.  chase didn't have much time off this year, but we packed it in where we could!  (and, thank goodness for holly and her camera!)

mississippi state cheese

they could be brother and sister...

this is wes...

pretty good for a phone propped up on the mantle...

same jackets....

it went in...

serious game of uno...

christmas biscuits...

wes' favorite present this year...

they made enough chocolate covered strawberries for our entire neighborhood...

boiled custard time...

christmas eve pjs...

hello, christmas morning...

can't come down until i get the "top of the stairs" pic...

new glasses and a brother that i didn't notice until just now...

his new "surfboard"

he thought this was an office chair for his desk...

he was wrong, and he was happily surprised!

the christmas crew...

we got a robotic vacuum (his name is Filch), and we had to watch him work a while!!

trying out his new sleeping bag...

reed put a sign on his door while working on his new legos...

wes loves his new fathead...

naptime!

he's a little infatuated! he has no idea what he's doing, but he says he is going to teach himself.  we shall see!

i see many arguments in the future over foosball, but we have already determined one thing....mama is the worst foosball player in the house.

and now....we nap.  or at least sit and read one of our new books.  you know....anything to keep from having to take the tree down.  i've got at least a few more days!!
