Christmas hats

The theme for the family gift exchange this year was hats. Here are the hats that the Maier's received. Unfortunately, we are missing Sam and Mitch! Mitch refused to have his picture taken.....we even tried pinning him down to snap a picture to no avail. Mitch had Sam and I think I forgot to tell him...so he still owes Sam a hat! **OPPS!!** Everyone else had no problem getting their pics taken with their new hats however!!!! :)

Maier Christmas

Some pics of the kiddos opening some of their presents on Christmas. As usual, all the presents were opened in less then 10 minutes and the living room was completely trashed!! **SIGH**

Santa!!!!!!!!!!!!

They had Santa visiting the Dells everyday while we were visiting. We thought there was going to be a line when we finally went, but John and Isabelle were able to walk right up to him, chat him up and hop on his lap for a photo opp!! Isabelle asked for a puppy and John asked for a Brachiosaurus!! :)

Splish and Splash!!! :)

A few weeks ago we headed to the Dells for a weekend away with the kiddos. They had a nawesome time playing in the three indoor water parks. It was nice for Mike and I as well...since John and Isabelle are a little older and could run around more without us following them around the whole time. They are going to be a blast when we head to TN in June to hit the water parks there!! :)
