Christmas!!!

We had a fantastic Christmas this year! We stayed here in Cedar for Christmas morning. It is so much fun with a little one! Especially now that she opens presents better! Every time she would open a present she would say "ope"...she wanted to play with EVERYTHING! When we were trying to get her to decide what Santa would bring her we walked down the Toys R Us doll isles to see if she would get excited about a baby doll...but nope...she saw some balls and that made her day....so she asked Santa for a basketball hoop...silly girl, but it didn't get delivered to our home Christmas morning b/c of snow earlier in the week so she opened all her other gifts and aunt Daph saved the day and brought it down to Grandmas where they boys and Emma loved playing it!!
Family pic..aren't we just beautiful!!;)

Her hair was CRAZY!! No time for bath Christmas Eve...we went to some friends and then read the Christmas story when we got home...I had to get ready for work..so she didn't get her bath and boy can you tell by the hair...got to love it!!
After opening gifts and eating off to Bicknell we went! Emma finally got her hoop and loved playing with it with the boys..

Mitch and Shel loved Emmas hoop it gave them entertainment for hours!
I even got in on the playing...still holding Emma..she was giggling and loving every minute!!

Mitch and Shel getting to do some hard work...not so sure at first but by the end they were laughing and having a great time!

All the big kids had their DS's to play with and they would let Emma "write" notes and send them to each other...she LOVED it and they were so good to let her play! She is starting young...yikes!!

She kept saying 'he he' (for horses) and so Uncle Lance saved the day and took her out to see them in the freezing cold!!! Mom wouldn't...I guess that's what good uncles are for;)

All of the kids drew names and gave a present to each other...Emma opening her gift..which she loves...and it's girly..even better;)

Haylie and Aja waiting to open gifts.

...More DS......
It was a fabulous weekend spending time with family..eating, laughing, and playing games!! It is always Crazy at the Durfey home when all the family starts playing game...loud, laughing, and some bantering...wouldn't change a thing! Thanks everyone for a great time we loved seeing all of you!
