An Afternoon with Family

We had a nice visit with Aunts, Granparents, and cousins right after the Christmas holiday. It was fun to get all the kids together and spend time with our new little nephew Will.

Beyblade Mania

Dylan is 100% addicted to the world of Beyblades. They are a spinning top toy, and I think had a different name years ago. Battling is the past time with these toys. They spin them and have them battle in an arena. They score points and they come apart and parts can be switched between  them to make the ultimate Blade. He also watches Blade Battles on u-tube and plays the Wii Beyblade game. Dylan really loves to battle with Randy and Brandon. If you are ever up for a battle, Dylan is ready and waiting.

 Riley loves to watch and put the Blades in and out of the bag Dylan keeps them in.

Christmas Day!

Christmas morning we started out with the opening of the stockings.

 Riley loves wearing hats, no matter who's they are.

 Then on to the presents. She loved her little Tyke Bike.

 As soon as she opened the phone from my Mom, she was done. I am in trouble for sure when she is older on a real one.

 Santa brought Dylan the professional size football he wanted.

 That evening we spent the evening with our good friends the Lobiondo's and had a great Christmas dinner.

Christmas Eve

Every year we spend Christmas Eve with Randy's Family. This year was especially nice because his grandparents were able to travel to be with us.

 Riley decided she wanted to double with the Baby Jesus in the manger for our annual family read and acting out of the nativity.
