This year Den had to work on Christmas Eve and mom helped out since I was sick by getting the kids that morning. Therefore when Santa made his annual stop through Helena the kids were not home but with Ran instead. They also got to spend some extra time with their cousin Cohen who came over to see Santa drive by. Cohen was not too happy about it though. My kids enjoy this every year and love getting the candy that Santa throws, I hate that I missed it but look forward to it next year.

Sickness in the Hulsey House
This post shall have no pics. When we left Den's parents Cade started feeling bad. He had a fever by the end of that evening and we started him on some medicine. Well that would be the end of that, or so I thought. The next day, which was the Monday before Christmas, I went to work and the kids were home with the babysitter. Bradon was actually with Drew. Anyway later on that night right before I went to bed I told Den that I thought I was getting sick. My throat was starting to hurt. The next morning I woke up and was feeling even worse. I was getting sicker by the minute. I thought I had strep or a really bad sinus infection. Anyway I had to cancel an ortho appt that Bradon had for that morning and called my mom to complain. She happen to be off that day, praise God. She was going to go get me the medicine that the doctor called in and also pick up some soup. Bradon took care of me. Now on a side note Bradon and Cade take showers together all the time really to help me out because Cade can't seem to get all the shampoo out so Bradon helps him. Well this particular morning I told them to get in and wouldn't you know they started fighting and knocked the curtain and rod down and I am to weak to even get out of bed to put it up. Just my luck! They can't do it and I still haven't had my shower yet. I called my neighbor and asked her if she could come over and put it up. She came over wearing one of those mask that people where when they cut their grass, it was really funny. I don't her blame though. I can't believe she even came in my house. Anyway I ended up having a virus that lasted for 7 days that is "flu like" but not the flu. Just my luck again I would get sick with something just like the flu only not the flu so that I can't treat my family with Tamiflu so they don't get sick. And wouldn't you know Bradon got sick. Needless to say we have had better Christmas years. However, we still had a lot to be thankful for and I and definitely blessed to have a husband that never once complained. He took all the kids to all the family functions alone, his and mine. He took care of me and Bradon and he took care of the house and the "tasks" at hand. I am a lucky girl!
Christmas in Tuscalooser
Well here is the clan. We had a new addition this year, Bella, Katelyn's dog. She is too cute. We are also waiting on another addition, Macey, our niece that Candace is currently "cooking", pun intended!

So, I thought I would just let everyone see a few pics from the day. There is one of Bradon and his cousin Drew playing with the new airsoft gun that his Mawmaw and Papa got him for Christmas. They had a lot of fun playing with those. Uncle Chad thought that it would be fun to get some guns for all the guys, that would be interesting.
Here are all the individual family pics
Drew, Nae, Katelyn, Bella and Bobby
Macey, Candace and Jonathan
Haley, Ty and Chad
RK, Den, Brady, Leigh and Cade
And Den and I thought that this would be the perfect picture to finish this post with...
