A very Merry Christmas!

Yes I know it's MLK Monday and I am way late but such is the life with 5 kids who are getting their education at home! I might be a little late to the party but I do show up.
Christmas was really wonderful this year. The kids reactions were priceless and Isabella was just so delighted with all of it. Since we've moved into our new house I have been very focused on not bringing in tons of new "stuff" to clutter up all of our new space. I didn't want a bunch of toys that would be strewn from one of the house to the other.So I caught Seth in a weak moment and convinced him to let me get the kids a Wii. He hates video game systems with a passion so this wasn't an easy sell. But timing is everything and he relented. I have to confess I wanted the Wii as bad as the kids did. I wanted a Wii fit even more. So my motives were somewhat selfish but completely to their benefit. So here is the reaction to their presents.






This made me laugh so hard. Dalton and Gabby argue most out of all the kids so for them to hug you know the euphoria was really over the top.
I am so glad we bought this system. We have had a great time with it and even Seth has enjoyed it to the point of needing an icepack on his shoulder!
