Cousins!

I am so lucky to have such a wonderful family and the BEST cousins ever! I had so much fun playing with everyone and can not wait until we all play together again! Thanks for such a fun time guys!
Love,

I like trains!!

Matt got a really cool train set for Christmas that Tom loved. I loved it too, except for when I wanted to play house with Tom and he was too busy with the train. Boohoo! Luckily we played trains AND house together. We play everything really well together!

Crack kills...

I know, but I could not help it...the pants were a little too big! Mommy always has Nama buy a size up in pjs so we can get 2 years out of them!

Group photos...more!

Since we do not all get to get together too much, when we do, the cameras are always out and the adults are trying to get cute group pictures all the TIME. Here e are in our second set of matching PJs (Nama and Papa got them for us). Cheese!
Love,
Kate

Mommy and Daddy

Tom is the Daddy and I am the Mommy to twin babies Julie & Thomas. We played this a lot. In fact, we moved into a few "apartments": one in Nama and Papa's room and another upstairs. We would let Anna and Meghan play too - they were the sisters. Tom and I would call each other honey and give each other hugs and kisses.
Love,

PLAYING ALL THE TIME!

Here are some pictures of more crazy playing time in the playroom! Nama bought a really cool Leapfrog system that you hook up to the TV and play! It is so fun and it teaches you lots of stuff!

Headbands!

Nama bought this really cool new game called "Headbands" for her house. You wear a headband and then put a picture of an image on it and then ask yes or no questions to try to guess what is on your headband. We had a blast playing it!

PRESENTS!

We were all a BIG help to Papa as he passed out the presents. There were so many, but we made it go by faster! We all got such great presents - thank you everyone!

Tom and I am helping each other as we carry a heavy one!

Meghan was a big help - she climbed under the tree and would pull all the one's that were really far back out for Papa to pass out!
Here she is under the tree!

Kid gift opening madness....we just opened and opened!

More opening!

I LOVE my wedding dress and wore it for a LONG time! I am a bride!

Aunt Jenny was being funny with a present she got - it was a sweater and she did not know how to wear it!! :)

Helping Nama open her presents!

Breakfast: Part and Part 2

Mmmmmmmm...nothing better than Gigi's homemade toast for our first energy builder of the day. After the kids opened presents we took another break and had a full fledge HUGE brunch! There were waffles with fruit, cheesy eggs, bacon, toast, sausage, OJ, etc.....super yummy!

The THRILL of Christmas Morning!

It was so cool seeing all those presents under the Christmas tree...Santa had been to Nama and Papa's house! After being super excited and seeing our BIG presents - I got a bunk bed for my twin babies we all took a break and had a bit of breakfast before the big present opening marathon!
Love,

Christmas Morning!

Us kids were not allowed to go see what all Santa left us until we were all awake and ready to walk in together! Here we are all waiting in Nama and Papa's room....so EXCITED!
Love,

Bedtime!

Just before bedtime we got snuggled in our mats (with babies Julie & Thomas) in Nama and Papa's room and watched "How the Grinch Stole Christmas". It was really fun...especially to be with my cousins!
Love,

Twas the Night Before Christmas...

and Papa was reading us a story named the same thing!! This may have to become a new tradition. It was really cool to have Papa read to us as we settled down to go to bed. Thanks Papa!
Love,
Kate

Bloopers!

Since there are so many of us....it takes a lot of pictures to land the really good one's (thank goodness for digital cameras). Here are some of the bloopers of us trying to get a good group shot!!!

Christmas Eve jammie picture!

We all had on cool matching jammies and had to take a jammie picture after we layed out the cookies and milk for Santa and the carrots for the reindeer!
Love,
Kate

Sleep over!

We were so lucky to get to have a sleepover with all our cousins so we could wake up and open presents after Santa came! Nama and Papa set up cots for Tom, Meghan and me to sleep on. After lots of playing on the cots, the adults decided it was a better idea for us to just sleep on the mats on the floor - still fun!
Love,
Kate

Bath Time!

We love to take a cousin bath every time the Fimmen cousins are in town! This time Uncle Tom gave me a bath and kept joking with me saying I wanted it "the hard way"...I kept telling him..."no, the easy way"! It was SO fun!
Love,
Kate

The 6 of us!

Their are 6 of us cousins (under 3.8 years old)! Everyone seems to love for us to get group pictures, but it is pretty tricky to get us all to cooperate! Here are some pretty good one's! At first we were all laying on Nama and Papa's bed playing house!
Love,
Kate

Gingerbread House & Men!

We decorated our very own little gingerbread men, a HUGE gingerbread man and a gingerbread house! We had lots of fun eating....I mean decorating it all!
Love,
Kate
