Christmas with the Ives

Just like last year when we visited the Ives after Halloween, we celebrated CHRISTMAS with them. It is so fun to have them put up their tree so early. She is always so nervous of what people are going to say if they see it. So at night, I love to turn off the house lights, turn on the tree lights and open her curtains and blinds!!
It was so much fun to watch the kids open and play with their gifts. They got Kendyllee a Beauty and the Beast tea set, which is a total hit with all of the kids, and a super cute hot pink beanie and mitten set. They gave Owen and charger for his XBOX 360 controllers and they gave me a box of pampering stuff...fingernail polish, hot chocolate, flannel pants, some slippers, and this really cool Tinkerbell watch with lip gloss in it!!
We gave the boys a set of cowboy accessories and a set of policemen accessories!! And then Aaron and Heidi each got a afghan that I made for them. I also made them all matching BSU Scarves so they can be super supportive of the Blue and Orange! (GO BSU!!)
Here is a pic of what happened a lot while we were there. Kendyllee putting a BIG OL' SMACKER ON THE LIPS of Christopher!! She loves him and she loves to kiss him. My goodness, I thought we were going to have to have a talk with her.
Sporting the scarves!
Kendyllee loved opening her gifts!!
She pulled some of the funniest faces!
Thanks for the wonderful time while we were there. Love and miss ya tons!
