5+1 Parkinson's

Tacoma got a basketball hoop.

Taigely got a baby doll with matching pajamas.

Talon got a race track with sounds and everything.

I am a little slow at getting things updated. We did have a Merry Christmas at our house. On Christmas Eve Troy took Taigely and Tacoma skiing and snowboarding at Sundance. They had a blast and even did the all day thing. That night we went over to Grandma Parkinson's house and had a party. We opened up exchange gifts from his family and of course ate a lot of food. The kids got to open their Christmas Eve Pajamas. We then headed back for home before Santa came. Troy and I finally made it to bed around 1:00. We told the kids that they couldn't come down and get us until 8:00. They stirred around 7 and came downstairs around 7:30 to inform us that Santa had come. All of them were so excited. We spent most of the day opening up a few presents at a time, then playing with them and visiting with grandparents, uncles and aunts. Our family got a ping pong table, so we spent most of the day having tournaments. I hate to say it, but Troy is definitely the champion in the family. On New Year's Eve Troy had to work most of the day. We went over to Grandma Parkinson's for another party that night. We watched Shrek the third and Eagle eye. The kids insisted on staying up until midnight. At midnight we toasted some bubbly (nonalcoholic), yelled Happy New Year outside and left for home. The next day Talon was so unhappy that he took a nap after breakfast. I guess he can't handle the late night hour. On New Year's Day Troy set up Tacoma's basketball hoop that he got for Christmas. It took him most of the day. Taige and I did some shopping to kill the time. Today, Troy took the kids up to Sundance. They were all excited to go. The Holiday's have been busy but a lot of fun at our house. We truly have been blessed this year with so many things. Next we have Tacoma's birthday, then the new baby. Wow!
