CHRISTmas Day 2014

Memories of Christmas

 Gifts from Santa 

 Santa even put lights on Elijah's gifts

 A Nerf gun
This was the only toy Elijah asked Santa for

 Can it be?

 Yes it is 
A show box for lights
He didn't ask for this but Santa got it for him because he knows Elijah still likes Christmas lights a lot!

Last but not least...

 His own printer

 He was so excited about this!

 Byron and Elijah making homemade cookies 

Silly glasses that Santa left in his stocking

Elijah's Christmas Wish List:
A Nerf Gun
A computer
A printer

 Chilling out by the fireplace and watching TV

Love

 Elijah spent a long time during the day in his room "making" gifts for us.
In this big bag is the gift he made for his Daddy




 Yea! Daddy liked what I made him

 Better working Internet "upstairs" make this boy happy

Mommy's had been wanting a big monitor 

Elijah and Byron have this on going fun about a certain fork they both like to use. So Byron bought him his own set so he wouldn't use "the fork".
And Elijah loved it. These two!...never a dull moment.


 Elijah's computer
He already had a wireless keyboard and large monitor that he used with my old laptop. So now, he as his own set up.

Night night and sweet dreams

Early Christmas Celebration

Friday, December 19th was a early release day for Elijah. So as soon as he got home from school, we left heading to Mississippi to have an early Christmas celebration with Byron's family. It was a very nice visit but the weather for the drive there was horrible! Because of the constant rain and traffic, the trip took 3 hours longer than normal. We were just thankful that we made it there safely.

Oh, these two!

Gingerbread House

The week before Christmas Byron had to take a quick business trip to Alabama. So before he left for the airport, Elijah and him made a gingerbread house.
