Moore Christmas

The weekend after Christmas we wrapped up our celebration with the Moore family Christmas.  It's nice having Kirsten and Kirk here to join in on the festivities, but we missed the Marshall family :(  Brady was battling a cold and was a little on the grumpy side.  He pretty much only wanted Grandma, but that's nothing new.  We did our traditional Christmas Eve minus Quentin because he had to work.  We read the Christmas story from the Bible, sang Christmas hymns, opened up a present and enjoyed warm homemade cinnamon rolls.  I think the cinnamon rolls is what really makes Christmas feel like Christmas to me.  We headed back over to my parents (with Quentin this time) as soon as Brady woke up Saturday and started opening all the presents.  Brady is a little obsessed with wearing this hat and sometimes refuses to take it off.  *Side story about that...He wore that hat to Lori's yesterday and did not take it off the whole day.  Even during his nap, Lori said she was worried he would get too hot and tried to sneak in his room to slip it off, but he said in a low, quiet little raspy voice "No, Wori, no."  Hopefully we break him of this by the time warm weather comes back our way.*

When's the perfect time to pick our nose?  During a picture of course!  Anyway, he LOVED this car and carried it around most of the morning.  You push a button and it talks. He also took over Kirk's little motorcycle for a while. 
During Brady's (and Kirsten and Aliisa and maybe Mom) nap time I went shooting with Dad, Quentin and Kirk.  I am not the greatest shot and definitely need some more time at the shooting range once we get our gun.  I did pretty good with the 22 :)  And when I was shooting the rental gun the barrel snapped in half because I am just too powerful for my own good.  It was pretty fun.  Now the search begins for our gun.
After that I went to Kohl's with Kirsten and Mom and got a lot of really good deals on some really cute stuff.  And spent way too long doing it, but it was fun and we don't do it often.  Saturday night Kirk and Kirsten came over and watched the new Bourne movie Quentin got from my parents.  We were all spoiled for sure.
