Christmas #4

Christmas Day was spent with my family. We started by opening stockings at my sister's house. As you can see by the photo below, Santa went a little crazy and left us gift bags full of stocking stuffers instead of actual stockings. We were all very spoiled this year by Santa! Somehow, I think Finley's stocking will be alot smaller next year....haha

Here is Finley opening up some stocking stuffers...
After opening our stocking stuffers at Kristy's place, we loaded into the car and drove over to my Aunty Sandy & Uncle Lloyd's place to open presents....again, Finley was ridiculously spoiled
One of Finley's most favorite cousins, Madison, helped her open a bunch of her presents...Finley was kinda interested in opening presents but I think next Christmas will be much more exciting for her!
Even Finley must've thought she had way too many presents because she was getting tired opening them up...
Tanner & Madi got RockBand for Christmas. Finley loves the drums so she was helping Tanner with the drum sticks...
After all the presents were opened, we set up RockBand and had a great time playing until breakfast was ready....here is Jimmy channeling his inner Tommy Lee
Here is mom making our traditional Christmas morning breakfast...Fried eggs, scrambled eggs, bacon & toast!
We decided we needed a break from playing Rock Band so we played PictionaryMan. Madison received this game for Christmas. Considering it was a game aimed at kids, it was certainly very hard. Needless to say, we didn't get very far into the game before we all gave up.
For the second year in a row, it was a very frigid Christmas day in Saskatoon. Because it was way too cold to go sledding or skating like we usually do, we had to spend the day inside playing with whatever Santa decided to bring us. Finley got bored real fast of all her toys and spend a portion of her afternoon playing with the hanger that her Christmas dress came on
Finley really loves the drums and insisted on sitting on Daddy's lap so that she could help him play!


Every Christmas night, our family embarks on our Twinkle Tour. It starts at the Enchanted Forest and then we head to "Bearinstein" Cres and "Smurfy" Cres before driving down Sask Cr and heading back to my Aunty Sandy's place. And for the second year in a row, Finley was sound asleep before we even left the driveway!
After the twinkle tour, we arrived back at Aunty Sandy's where we embarked on a game of Taboo. Kristy & Greg got into some crazy fights and accused each other of cheating constantly - just another regular games night with our family...hahah
Soon after, we headed back to Aunty Kristy's place where we settled in for the night - we had a VERY busy day planned for the 26th so we certainly needed our rest!

We had a great time at Aunty Sandy's and enjoyed visiting with all of our family!
