Falling Behind Again

I know I am really behind in my blogging. I have been really busy lately but I guess that is always the case so I will attempt to catch everyone up with what we have been doing this past month or so.

Christmas was a little different for us this year and this was the first year that Jensen really understood what was going on so we decided rather than stay at my parents house, as we normally do, we would stay the night at our house on Christmas Eve so that Santa could visit us there. We also decided we would start a new tradition and we had Brian's mom, Janet, stay over with us as well. I think Brian and I were more excited about Christmas morning than Jensen was, and of course Peyton was still too young to understand what was going on. Lynnette called us at 6 am and I thought it was an alarm clock going off instead of my phone so I woke up and ran upstairs to wake up Jensen! I was expecting him to be so excited to get up but he said "Mom, why are you waking me up? The sun isn't up yet" Ok, so I guess maybe he still doesn't get the whole excitement of Christmas yet! Anyways, he did wake up and we had a nice Christmas morning together and then we went from there over to my parents house where we would stay for the next few days. Lynnette and Dave came for a few days which was great! They were there to celebrate a few days after Christmas and through New Years! We also had our extended family Mowat Christmas as well which was really fun.

Here are some pictures from over the holidays:
