Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

The Hollingshead Family had such a wonderful Christmas!!! We pretty much celebrated for a week. We cherished all of the time we were able to spend with our family!!! Here's how we spent our days!!

El Rancho with Tyler's Dad

Colton loved the mistletoe and pulled each ornament off of their tree.

Christmas Eve at Grandma Kathy's

Uncle Scott and Aunt Rachel gave Colton a real Home Depot Dump Truck. Colton and Ashley love it.

Uncle Scott loved it too!

Christmas Morning at our House!!

The twins loved all of the presents that Santa brought. Especially Spiderman and the Cinderella phone.

They always hug like this (yeah, right).

I had to put this one in here. You can see how happy they were to be all dressed up for the day!

They finally learned to accept the clothes. Ashley still isn't very happy about it. Colton was ok once he had Spidey.

Christmas Day at Great Grandma Swanson's House!!!

Great Grandma and Bompa gave the twins cars for Christmas. They both loved them!!

Colton is now duped the "party animal". He got a chicken that sings from great grandpa, and lets just say he let loose. He wouldn't put the chicken down even when we got home. We have eaten several meals while listening to the chicken dance since.
Ashley was busy rearranging Great Grandma's decorations.
Santa Claus???

Christmas Day Dinner at Grandma Sandy's House!!!

I had to pay special tribute to Colton's Santa. He sings and waves a little bell. Ever since Grandma Sandy put him out, Colton has been obsessed (like the chicken). He plays with the Santa forever when we go to her house. But, Christmas is over and Santa got put away. Colton still points to the spot where Santa sits wondering where he is.


Noah and AnnMarie got a Wii for Christmas. Tyler and Noah boxed. We won't discuss the results.

Colton and Ashley got a sled and snowsuits from Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Mike for Christmas. We went for a little ride the next day. Colton refused to sit and ate the snow (he's a wild man). Ashley loved every minute!!

That's all! We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
