Christmas 2010

Christmas Eve 2010 was spent and my Aunt Collette's house. We had a wonderful dinner and we had fun with the family. My sister and I decided to compared bellies, I am 38 weeks and Katelyn is 29 Weeks pregnant. Triston had fun playing with all his cousins and we had fun chatting with family.

After Aunt Collette's house we went home and Triston opened his Christmas eve present. Which of course was jammies. This year he got Mickey Mouse and Handy Manny jammies. He was into Iron man at the time so he had to get a picture with his Iron Man. After we watched the Iron man movie, we decided to go to bed so Santa would come.

Christmas Morning

Triston is not a morning person, so we had to wake him up to open presents. We woke up about 9 am and opened the presents Santa left. This year he got a Mickey Mouse activity book, a Buzz Lightyear scotor, Toy Story figurines, a digital camera, some books, a couple of games and some clothes. After he openned his presents we got ready for our annual family Chrismas party.

Chrismas Afternoon

This year we had our family party at my little brother Alex's house. We ate a yummy breakfast and then we openned our presents. Triston always plays with Daxon's guns when he is over at my brother Sam's house so Sam and Mindy got Triston a battery operated nerf gun. He loved it! All though he lost his bullet within the 1st hour. He also got a Lightning McQueen Car. I wasn't feeling good so I left the party eairly. I went home and slept for a while. Triston and Chris stayed a little bit longer. All in All we had a fun Christmas. Now I am just waiting for my baby to come.

McMullin Santa Party!

We had our annual McMullin Christmas December 10th 2010. We had fun. Triston had a blast playing with all the little kids, and I caught up with some of my family. We played games and eat yummy food. Then the highlight of the night was when Santa came. Triston started by not wanting to stay in the room, but I eventually Bribed him with some chips. When he finally got called up to sit on Santa's lap he was so excited. He told Santa that he wanted a guitar for Christmas. We had so much fun with the family. Can't wait for next year.

Christmas Day

On Christmas morning we went over to my brother Sam's house to open presents with my family. Triston wouldn't take off his Buzz Jammies, so we let him wear the all day. He loves his cousins so much he always has fun with them. I was a little snap shot happy on Christmas, because my husband bought me a Cannon Rebel EOS T1i. I was so excited to take pictures. I think that I did a good job, but I will keep practicing.

My true Love!

Cash, Triston and I and Shara.

My family

My Brother Sam put on some music down stairs and the kids went hog wild!

Opening presents was a blast this year. The younger kids really got into it.

SILLY KIDS!

We found them laying on the stairs pretending to be sleeping.

We ended up going to my Grandma Swenson's house later on in the afternoon. She was excited to see us. We visited with her for a while and ate some food. I love my grandma. This was the first Christmas with out my Grandpa, so I felt sad for my Grandma.

Later on when we got home from Chris' parents came over. We exchanged gifts and just visited for a while. We were exhausted by the end of the day.

Santa Came

Christmas morning, we had to wake Triston up about 9:30 am. When he finally woke up he noticed the many presents under the tree! He was so excited! He had so much fun taring the wrapping paper and openning the presents. Every present he opened he wanted to get it out of the box and play with it immediately. We had to convince him to keep opening all his other presents. He kept saying "my presents, my presents." I think that this years was the funnest Christmas, because Triston was so excieted and his expressions were priceless!.

He wasn't even afraid of Santa this year.

I tought him to say "Ho Ho Ho merry Kiss-mas."

He was so cute when he said it, and his grin showed his excitment!

Santa brought him:

A Jeep Power Wheel,

Leap Frog My First Computer,

a New Buzz Lightyear gun,

board games, and clothes.

Few pictures of him opening his presents. He tried to

drive his jeep, but he kept running into things.

I hope he learns how to drive and steer soon.

Christmas Jammies

So I started a Christmas tradition with Triston opening up a present on Christmas eve. Of Course it was Christmas jammies. Triston had fun opening up the present, but he was more excited when he saw "BUZZ LIGHTYEAR" jammies. He wouldn't take them off on Christmas morning!

Christmas Eve 2009

This year we were up in the air about were we were going to go for Christmas Eve. I tried to leave it up to Chris to decided if we were going to do anything with his family. But I finally made the decision the night before, and my gracious Aunt Collette said that we could still come over. It was nice to see my family. Triston had fun making blocks and staking them up and knocking them down.

Christmas Card

I decided to make a more professional cards this year. I make

up another card, but it was really expensive. So I had to down

size. I think that these turned out fine, at least my hair looks

better this year!

(Thanks to my friend Kim who took our pictures.)

We want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas,

and we hope that everyone is enjoying the holidays.

Love The Dent's

SaNtA's LaP

I took Triston to sit on Santa's lap at South Towne Mall. They have changed it. It is so cute, they have little activities for the kids while they are waiting in line. We ended up getting there while Santa was on lunch break, so we had to wait around for a while but it was worth it. Triston did very well this year, but he wasn't looking at the camera. He is so cute he says "Ho Ho Ho Merry Kis-is (Christmas)!"

He loves to push button, so he had so much fun!

Triston & Santa

McMullin X-mas Party

So Every year we have a McMullin Christmas party with my moms side of the family. This year we only had a dessert party and Santa, so it wasn't very fun for everyone. The older kids just played basketball all night while the younger ones sat on Santa's lap. Triston did better this year, he actually sat on Santa's lap, but he would not give up his "B" (Binky). When I took it out he wasn't very happy.

Triston and Santa

I was scrapbooking last years pictures and noticed that I didn't get a family picture, so I made sure I took more pictures this year.

Here is some of my family!

So of course Triston likes' any type of balls, so he thought that he could play basketball with the big kids. He tried so hard to throw it up to the basket, but he was a little short. Chris and I tried to lift him up to see if that helped, but he would always drop the ball. He had so much fun.
