Christmas Eve & Day!

Merry Christmas!
I hope everyone had a great Christmas.  Every year we do Christmas Eve with my family and Day with the Thurgoods.  It works out great.  Christmas morning we experienced the first year of having a child that really understands Santa... IT WAS AWESOME!!! 
 
This is Christmas Eve at the Butchers!
 
My sister and her fam live in Boise so this is everyone else.  The boys: (really excited about this photo) my boys, Popi, Dustin, Miles, Ty &puppy chipper.

 
The girls: Nana, me, Kristin & Stacy.  It will be nice to add a baby girl to this photo next year!  We are obviously out numbered!

 
Ryder was a bit tired plus had a nasty cold (on antibiotics) so was exhausted after opening pjs!

 
Christmas morning coming down the stairs to see if Santa came!!!  With Ryder being sick and sooo beyond excited about Santa coming we started Christmas REALLY early... like 3:30am!!!  Yikes!Merry Christmas! ha ha

 
The only thing he ended up asking for was a Big Boy Bike!  Luckily he was pretty good so that is exactly what he got! Too bad its snowing outside, the living room and kitchen just aren't big enough. : )  A little weird to have a kid old enough that understands Santa and wants a legit bike.



After opening presents at home we went to the cabin to have a very winter wonderland Christmas at the cabin taking snowmobiles to get there and all!  Grandma and Grandpa gave Ryder a helmet to go with his new bike and this 4 wheeler to stay at their house to play with!  It kept him busy which was nice!  He also got a leappad2 from them that he will love as soon as either his Mom or Dad set it up!
 
Christmas night we go to Christians grandparents house.  Ryder was pretty good until he realized he was running a long day on only about 5 hours of sleep when he is used to about 10-12 plus a nap still.  So this photo concludes our Christmas perfectly!  It was hilarious and definitely much needed bedtime.
