Christmas

 This year Amazon delivered just about every present we got for Christmas.  The kids had a great time stacking the amazon boxes as they came each night.  We should have put them under the tree...but we didn't think about it.  :)

This year we celebrated Christmas at our parents.  We sent Abby and Eric home with mom and dad Bradley - Abby came down with the flu Sunday.  She was miserable.  Good thing she had grandparents to take care of her!  We came down Monday night.  We enjoyed a fun Christmas Eve - mostly just hanging out and enjoying the excitement.

I found Andrew and Eric sitting behind the bed, on the heater watching movies on the ipad...  Can't get more fun than that!  :) 

We had our annual Christmas eve Bradley party at the church.  It is always a fun, energetic night! 

The kids put on a play for us.  That was fun to enjoy!

We opened gifts - always a highlight!  I put Abby in charge of taking pictures - she did a fantastic job.

We also got to meet our little nephew Cohen.  Isn't it tiny and adorable?  Ahhh.. such a cutie!

We stayed at my parents home that night - and celebrated Christmas morning with them.  Eric woke up at 5 puking... that was a great way to start the day.  :(  But the other kids had a great time. 

They all enjoyed opening gifts and seeing what they got from us and from Santa. 

Even Ethan had a fun morning...even though it completely wore him out!

I love my little snuggle bug. :)

Abby and Eric got remote control helicopters - and Chris and my dad enjoyed showing them how they work!  ;)

We ended up packing up early and heading home on Christmas day since Eric was sick and we were pretty tired ourselves.  We came home to an empty home... just our lonely tree to welcome us!  We spent the day after Christmas trying to relax and rewind and get well. 

No one else ended up getting the flu like Abby and Eric, which we were very thankful for.  And we had a great time with family.  So - all in all, it worked out great. :)
