Thanksmas

I'm not sure who coined the phrase "Thanksmas" but I saw it on several people's facebook and decided that it aptly described our holiday at the Boyds. We had a great time on Friday celebrating a combined Thanksgiving and Christmas. It was so great to be able to spend time with all of Daniel's brothers and sisters. Everybody (and their significant others) were all in attendance. We had a great, fun-filled table! The boys played their annual football game, which I am happy to report involved some flags this year. Daniel said the played a combo game of tackle/flag, but in the past it has always been full tackle. So grateful that nobody got really injured!!

After stuffing ourselves full of great food, we exchanged Christmas gifts. Miss Kenna absolutely LOVED her MegaBloks. She thinks they are the greatest things ever and has played with them non-stop ever since we opened the present! If we pick them up and put them back in the bag, she will carry the bag over to you saying "hep tower" (help tower), because she wants you to open the bag and help her build the tallest tower. We have stacked and stacked today! Great gift Jackson! Kenna loves it!

Luke thought that Kenna's purse and cell phone that she brought from home were pretty fun...every little boy needs a picture carrying a pink purse!

And then my camera battery died! Oh well, it was a wonderful day and I can't wait to see everyone again soon!
