Christmas Day

Christmas day was a busy day full of family, presents and food but we wouldn't have it any other way! After an exciting morning at our house we went to Grandpa Siemsglusz's for lunch, back home for a quick nap, then the Wilde family gathered at our house for more fun that evening.

Christmas travels

As soon as we got out of school for Christmas break we hit the road to visit family. It was a long trip in a short few days but it was great to see family.

If I still have any followers still out there they've probably given up on me. Over Christmas break I cleaned out closets and I went crazy organizing my house but I just couldn't get the motivation to blog! It has become a little difficult to use because of several changes to blogger so I'll blame it on that. I'm going to attempt to figure it out so bare with me and if any other bloggers have advice on uploading photos please share your secrets! In the mean time here is a photo from the professional that I promised a long time ago. Stay tuned for more pictures of Christmas and New Year's if I can figure this blog thing out :)

Merry Christmas

 

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!

 

If your thinking you got cut from our Christmas card list you didn't. I was horrible this year and didn't even get Christmas cards out. I did good just getting our Christmas shopping done so I cut the Christmas cards from the list of things to do. We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and enjoyed some time with family.  

Loesch Family Christmas

Sunday we had our first Christmas party of the season. We enjoyed some good food and visiting with family. Santa made an apperence and brought gifts for the kids.

Collin made sure Santa knew he's been good and what he wants for Christmas.

Ho Ho Ho

Last year the kids would not even go in the same room as Santa without running, kicking and screaming. Needless to say we didn't get pictures with Santa last year. This year I thought we better start talking up Santa to get the kids in a picture with Santa. We talked about how he brings us presents and he's so nice. He gives you a candy cane if you take a picture with him and only babies cry on Santa's lap. We told the kids if they want presents on Christmas day they have to tell Santa what they want. Addison told Santa she wanted a necklace and a bracelet. Bryce told Santa he wants a guitar. Collin told Santa that he wants a football helmet.

 

They were a little hesitant at first but then Santa knew their names and everything was fine. This is the best picture I got with my camera so we will see what the professional pictures look like.
