Christmas Day with Nichols

Christmas Day after all the snow and ice started to melt, we left for Conroe to celebrate with my parents and family.

Here is Caden anxiously awaiting the gift opening at GiGi and Poppa's.Caden, Lane and Bella posing in front of the fireplace.
Nannie (Dad's Mom) with Bella and Caden.
Caden got an entire set of dump trucks, a front end loader, eighteen wheeler and other construction equipment from GiGi and Poppa. He loves them and pushes them all over the place.
Here are the kids tearing into their presents.
This is a picture of me taking a picture of Kari taking a picture of me!
He hit the mother load on 'trucks and cars' from GiGi and Poppa. This is an eighteen wheeler loaded with cars and trucks. It has construction equipment and signs that he can put up for when there are people working on the road. He can lift open the sides and store his Hot Wheels on both sides of the truck.
He also got a horse to ride on from them. Here he is as he's about to fall!
He loves his Mickey Mouse cell phone and asks Tim and me to talk to Mickey all the time!
We all got pretty tired about halfway through the present opening and we actually had to take a time out! Caden paused with Poppa while we had some dessert and got ready for round 2!
Dad got some shells for his gun so Caden was playing with one.
I commented to Tim that he was not taking pictures so after I had already opened up the beautiful bracelet and earrings from Kari and Scott, I 'faked my excitement' again so he could snap a picture!
Scott, always the prankster!
Tim got a shop vac from Kari and Scott so Caden had to sit on it to open more presents.
Bella and Lane with Bella's gift from us.
We got Lane a Nerf sword that he loved!
Tim and I got a dust buster from Mom and Dad and I was most excited to get it! I plugged it in right when we got home and have used it every day since!
GiGi and Poppa with their very tired grandkids!
Mom and Dad
Mom and Dad and us Sisters!
Bella Boo and GiGi
'Mommy sit down, you look a little tired.'
Bella Blue Eyes
Three Tired Kiddos Under The Tree!
We had a great time in Conroe and were so glad the weather did not stop us from going! Thank you all for the gifts and fun.

We had so much fun. I wish I could hit "rewind" and live it all over again! (Fast forward through the gift opening, though! Ha!)
