Christmas morning! I’m wondering how much longer my kids are going to be in this picture for me. There’s definitely some grumbling, “That picture again?!” “YES. THAT PICTURE. TODAY AND ALL THE CHRISTMASES FOREVER.” It’s the least they can do, right?! Never mind Jordan is hardly visible in the back. But nevertheless! All six, one frame. Let’s move on.
I love this picture of Anders taking in all the presents.
Target’s wrapping this year, like all years, was SO GOOD. I think Parker was opening his Batman Night Vision goggles (he saw them on someone at a Halloween party and couldn’t stop talking about them till Christmas. Almost two months! A long wait for a five year old.). 
Anders had a few things for Christmas–this car carrier among them–and was just so happy to stop all present opening and play with them without a care in the world. It’s just the sweetest. Lessons for us all! Contentedness. Babies are good at that.
Playing Guess Who. Throwback. I also bought Chutes and Ladders.
William knocked it out of the park with this Batman costume for Parker. In fact, a week later (as I write this), he’s wearing it while doing that Cosmic Kids yoga.
William’s looking through a calendar that his grandmom makes the kids every year. 
We brought this ride on tractor out at the end and I’m hoping it will be one they get a ton of use of. My friend Tisse has it for her kids and after seeing it in so many of her pictures, I decided to get it for the boys. We have a great backyard, and I imagine them riding it all over all summer long. They’ve already used it quite a bit.
Celebrated ten years with this guy just before Christmas. Love him so much.
Christmas carnage. Lindsey made out well with a new jacket, two new pairs of shoes, and lots of clothes. (Girls are so much easier to shop for than boys. Although William got the Timberlands he was hoping for!). 
After presents we had a big hash brown and eggs and bacon breakfast and then spent the rest of the day watching movies (Nathaniel wanted us to watch About Time. It really is such a sweet movie.). It was a wonderful Christmas with my loved ones. Hope yours was equally lovely! Bring on 2017!
glad you guys had such a good holiday, hunt family! it looks so cozy and perfect. happy new year!

One of my friends cries every time he sees About Time!! I need to commit to finding it so I can watch it, too.
It is that kind of movie. You should definitely watch it! Plus… Rachel McAdam! (And the British guy – I can’t remember his name – is SO charming.)
It looks like a great Christmas, indeed! Your boys will love that Gator (tractor). My boys had one and they used it from about age to until last year when they turned 8. Best investment ever!
Oh I’m so glad to hear that.
I have 2 boys your boys’ ages too and we got the John Deere when Owen became a big brother. Owen still loves it and Liam has just learned to drive it too. Well worth the money!!
Argh, look at the pile of presents! What a lovely Christmas you had. 🙂 Makes me wish I had a big family too because I’m the only child so I never got to experience Christmas like that!

What a lovely Christmas you had! Thanks for sharing. I am so jealous I missed the truck and Christmas tree paper. That was my thing this year. The truck and the tree. It was a reminder to the many years my husband and I sold Christmas Trees each holiday season.

Oh how cool that you used to do that!
I do the same thing with the Christmas picture, only ours is on the couch, with everyone holding his or her stocking. I’m forbidden to post it though. 🙁 Self-conscious teens, etc… oh well, as long as I have it!
I think About Time is a perfect movie for Christmas/ New Year! Sounds like it was a wonderful day!
Anders in his Christmas Jammies = perfection. Love that he still has a little baby belly! Oh what fun to have Littles around at Christmas.
My mom still has us take a picture on the stairs at my childhood home and I am almost 30. Keep making them take it. I promise they will be so thankful you did years from now. So glad y’all had such an amazing Christmas. What a beautiful time with your sweet family.
