Today we celebrated Christmas with Alisa and John and the Allen side of the family. It was great to be able to actually have Christmas with Alisa and John. Mom made us french toast for breakfast this morning and then we exchanged gifts with each other. The kids were so excited about all of their presents. They could not even hardly concentrate on what they were getting before they were opening another present. There were even some presents in there for Alisa's new baby. Alisa and John are not telling the name again so Kayleigh and Zeb call their baby sister "baby butter." Well that has stuck and until she arrives that will be her name. Mom and Dad got all the boys marshmallow guns for Christmas. You would have thought she struck gold with them. Mom told them that they were not allowed to shoot marshmallows in the house and that lasted all of about 30 seconds before all of them tore into their bags of marshmallows and started shooting each other. Zeb wanted John to shoot one in his mouth and that did not turn out so well. It made poor Zeb's mouth sore. I don't recommend that at home. All of the Rhynes got to come up for dinner that night to celebrate Christmas. All of the kids enjoyed riding the golf cart, playing with each other, and building a pyramid. It was a great Christmas in January.
