Christmas at the Burch's

We had a WONDERFUL time visiting Cameron's family for Christmas. We only wish the trip could have been longer. These are a few of the pictures from when we opened presents and had a nice little family Christmas Party.



The living room before anyone showed up...



And then the festivities began! We played this game where we read a version of the Christmas Story and every time it said 'left' or 'right' we had to pass our gift that way. It was tons of fun!Jakob kept getting passed this really heavy box (it was a box of Capri Suns) and he was starting to get really upset. After a few times of getting it he finally said "STOP PASSING ME THIS BOX!" LOL, it was so funny. So we told him to show us how mad he was...and here's the picture:


I ended up with the Capri Suns, woohoo, and Cameron got fruit snacks! Wonderful prizes if I don't say so myself :)


After the game we wanted to get a picture of the little boys in their cute Christmas outfits...Jason decided he wanted in on the action :) Cameron and Grandma Burch



This is like the 20th picture I took of them sitting in front of the tree and it's the only one of them all semi looking at the camera and smiling. What can you do though, boys will be boys. (okay this picture is HUGE and I don't know why...sorry, click on it to see it all.)

Zakry found the oven mits and walked around going "LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!" I think that's his favorite phrase because I heard him say it at least a hundred times in the few days we were there. But he's just so adorable so of course we all wanted to look at him :)



Zakry also found the ribbon :)


And the paper confetti...I think that was his favorite toy. He played with it for quite a while.



Mikah found the ribbon too and was a ninja!



And here's the living room after most of the presents were open.
Cameron's dad has a new hobby I guess you could call it. He goes fishing for golf balls. I think the first time he went was on Thanksgiving and I don't know that he's gone TOO many times since then and he has over 1300 golf balls I believe. So Cameron got a box FULL of golf balls (the ones in the bag are the really nice expensive ones). Mikah and Zakry got a Radio Flyer Wagon for Christmas and I don't think I have ever seen two kids more excited about anything in my life! When it was first brought out they were all excited and playing in it and I thought it would wear off after a few minutes like most toys do. But no, not this one. They played in that thing all night! And then the next two days they came over they went straight to it and just liked sitting in it and climbing in and out of it. Whoever picked that out should win a prize for getting a useful toy that the kids actually enjoy.
And then there's was Jakob's big present...his very own golf set!! The look on his face in this picture just says it all :)
Robby and Jakob showing off their new golf clubs. I think Robby and Meagan are hoping Jakob will go pro in a few years to they can retire early :)
He's so cool with his golf set and glove :) He's still got a little growing to do before they fit him though...
