ChRiStMaS mOrNiNg!!!

It seems that we have been good yet again and you all know what that means. Yes!!! Santa came to visit the Burrows Bunch this year. We were very blessed to get to spend time as a family this Christmas. We spent time opening presents from one another, having competitions on the Wii fit, Playing rock band together as a family, and of course eating good food. We again took turns opening presents in birth order (youngest to Oldest: Addi, Kenzie, Parker, Paige, Brinkley, Richy, Cody, Robyn, Janice, Richard, and last but not least Grandma Helen) in an attempt to make Christmas last just a little bit longer. Janice is convinced that if we spend a whole month buying and Wrapping presents that it should at least take us most of the day to unwrap them. We were able to make it at least last most of the morning. We also were blessed to have some of our extended family come out to the house and Join us for dinner. We all had a great Christmas and received a few things that we all wanted and needed. Thus Christmas is over and we are again striving to be good all year in hopes that Santa will visit us again next year! We hope that you were all blessed to get to share time with family and friends just like we were able to and that you had a great holiday season!

Addi trying to make it through the huge mess that we created while opening presents!

Addi, Parker, Richard, Richy, Brinkley, and Janice waiting their turns to open a present!

Look it's Parker's turn...

Kenzie opening her present from Brinkley and Richy. What is it you ask? Well a teddy bear to cuddle with now that Brinkley has moved. What a great dollar gift. Yes, we once again continued the tradition of each giving to each other that Richard started when the kids were all little. Each buying one dollar gift for each member of the family. We received things such as socks, bubbles (Addi picked these out for each of us), wooden spoons, scissors, our own hair spay (yes they had our names on them), pedicure sets and much, much more.
