Christmas and New Years

So Christmas was great this year with Grandma and Grandpa O'Bryant coming to San Antonio to celebrate with us and the Griffeths which made for a full house Christmas morning. We had a great time opening presents and goofing around and of course by the end of the day it appeared a giant wrapping paper and toy tornado had worked it's way quite handily through every room in our house. Highlights from this year include Brooke getting a very special letter and present from Mrs. Clause which were left by her stocking and Bry getting a basketball hoop from Santa which he is already starting to master. We spent New Years at the Griffeth's home playing games and having fun. Overall it was a great holiday season and year and we can't wait to see what 2013 will bring! 
Brooklyn in her Elf Hunting Costume. She didn't want to let the elves know she was a little girl so she dressed up like "an adult"


And who better to help catch an elf than a ninja?


 What follows are just random Pictures from Christmas and New Years. I decided I didn't really feel like picking and choosing so here is just all the ones that looked like they might be good to post. Besides, can you really get enough pictures of little kids on Christmas morning?


Nothing better than a little sibling love on Christmas

Jake really didn't understand Christmas last year so this year once he figured it out he started going nuts and was excited every time it was his turn to open a present.



Brooke and her McKenna doll from Mrs. Clause proving once again that miracles do happen






If you've been noticing Brooke's recovering blotchy face it is because days before she had had a very bad reaction to some antibiotics she was taking. Luckily by Christmas she was no longer itchy but the remnants of our little polka dotted daughter will remain in Webster Christmas photos forever






















Just two cousins goofing around!



New Year's candy bar game. Love it!!














We never thought it would come to this!
