Christmas time has come and gone...ALREADY!! We had a great Christmas though! The night before Christmas eve we had a family party at Rowdy's sister, Dusty's house. We ate a great ham and turkey dinner and then did a family gift exchange. It was nice seeing everyone. Then on Christmas eve we had a family party out to Dad and Diane's house. Once again...a great ham dinner! We never starve!! Then we did a gift exchange for the kids, and while they were opening their presents Santa came walking in!! It is always so funny to watch the expressions on kids' faces when Santa comes into the room. He only had a few of the kids crying! But Santa handed out gifts to all the kids and then grandpa and grandma handed more gifts out....PJ's!!

Kids wearing their new pj's! Thanks grandpa and grandma!
After the kids were done opening all their gifts and putting their new pj's on, we sent them upstairs to watch a movie while us adults did our white elephant gift exchange. This was something new that we decided to do this year....it was SO MUCH FUN!! We had a blast! By the time we had all opened our gifts we were all laughing so hard!! I can't wait for next year's white elephant gift exchange!!
After our party it was time to be getting home and in bed so Santa could come visit.
Braylie just had to sleep with her new stick horse, Annie, that she got from Santa at the party.
Finally Christmas morning had arrived! The kids were up a little after 7:00 and the fun began!
Bryndi got a MP3 player and a Moxie doll from Santa.
Britton got Transformers from Santa.
Bradyn got Petshop's and a stick horse from Santa.
Braylie got another horse and Legos...and another stick horse from Santa! Good thing she likes horses so much!!
By the time we all got done opening all our gifts it was very clear that once again the Rigby's had gotten spoiled! We had a great Christmas and just want to tell everyone thanks for helping it to be so much fun! Hope everyone has a great Happy New Year!!
