Christmas Part 1...

We broke Christmas up into a couple of days this year so the kids could receive gifts in stages. Uncle Tommy gave them gingerbread house kits to make so we took the chance, covered the table and let them go at it.  Brayden did great and was really into it, Gavin preferred to eat all the candy, and Ava just made a mess as usual!


Gavin showing us he would rather eat the pieces than build a house!

Brayden's finished product...a train!

Gavin adding what's left of his candy to the house!

Always a mess!

Of course Emma slept through it all!

The Luchetta house!
We also attended Joe's Department of Physical Education's Annual Christmas Party.  The kids had a blast playing on the mats and running around.  Gavin was the only one that was interested in what Santa had to say though!

Joe showing Brayden the "proper" way to do pull ups on a pipe!

Not sure if he's interested in Santa or Mrs. Clause



Best way to burn energy!
My parents came and visited the weekend before Christmas and though they had to deal with our entire household being sick with Bronchitis, we still had a blast opening gifts! This years popular presents included trains and firetrucks for the boys and babies and dress up for Ava!
