For the most part we had a wonderful Christmas. I say 'most part' because there were parts of Christmas that I hope to never repeat. I have to wonder sometimes if I am failing horribly as a parent. Am I teaching my children the REAL meaning of Christmas?? Or do they think it's all about the getting rather than the giving???
We hope everyone had a wonderful and meaningful Christmas!!

Miles with his Darth Maul Lightsaber
Morgon with his Leapster
Mallori with her bike
Maron with her Baby Doll that she named...Baby Doll!
Paul with his ripstick
We of course headed out to my parents house after our house had calmed down from the Christmas tornado! We love going out to the ranch to open our Stockings from Grandma and to eat Christmas dinner with the Tenney Clan. I am not going to lie...we sure did miss my Daddy!!
Ben and Taelee
Porter and Me...if you look close you can see the beautiful necklace Porter bought me. He had found an ad with this necklace in it, circled it, and put a $100 in his Dad's wallet to buy it for me. Porter is such a sweet and thoughtful little boy!!

Such sweet pictures. Looks like your family had a wonderful Christmas.
Don't worry, Tiff--you are teaching them about giving, because I know you. Just remember that it's not a total sin to enjoy receiving...because if it were, there'd be no point to anyone giving! I have to laugh at the background in some of these Christmas pictures. I never really thought about a Christmas Tornado x 12 kids--holy toledo. How do you keep everything straight? : ) Your kids are so cute, and that touches my heart that Porter did that for you--he's always been a good kid, Tiff. I still remember that he gave my little Tyson part of the airplane pack they were both bidding on at the family reunion.
