Reins' Family Together in Nebraska......

The day after Christmas, we left for Lincoln to celebrate with my side of the family. Here's a shot of all the cousins together.
Playing on the piano with each other.
Caitlyn's First Christmas
Grandma made these amazingly cute mice...chocolate covered cherries with almond ears and a hersey kiss head. They were a hit with the grandkids.
Hanging the mice by the tails....
Even Ty had one.
We went swimming a couple of times at the hotel. Brooklyn wanted to stay in the hotel forever. Of course, she was the one to sleep in late and poor Ty had to roam the halls until she woke up. Ty learned to how to "shush" with his finger to his lips this trip.
Look at how B watches and looks at Bo. She loves her big cousin.

Christmas Morning at HOME!!!

Christmas morning was so much fun with two kids this year. Brooklyn opened up each present with "ThisAlign Center was JUST WAHT I WANTED!!" So grateful and cute. She helped Ty with his presents too.
Ty's new backpack from Santa. Brooklyn told Santa to bring Ty a new backpack so she wouldn't have to share hers with her brother anymore.
Mass chaos and Christmas tornado hit the living room.
The jump-o-lene, AKA "jumpy house"...one of the favorite presents. Can't wait to have the basement finished so all these toys have a place to go.
Check out the electric hair.
Aunt Em's playhouse.

Christmas Eve....

Our gym had a visit from Santa and free sleigh rides. Ty just loves animals and was so excited to pet the horses.Whenever we are in Fort Collins for Christmas Eve, our tradition is to go eat at Macaroni Grill.
This year we couldn't wait till Rick and Malina went...so we had a dinner with us and the kids.

Such little cuties....Thanks Grandma Cheri for the new outfits.
After PJ's were put on...Ty wouldn't stand still for pictures.
Here is Josh's solution--hand Ty upside down.
Opening the stockings before bedtime.
