Wii had a great Christmas!




The kids patiently waiting to open presents! (Anna wasn't being patient!)


What Santa left....



Wow- Christmas always comes and goes so fast! Sometimes I forget to stop and enjoy all the magical parts of Christmas (like leaving milk and cookies for Santa:( oops)! The kids did great this Christmas- they got all they ever wished for... and more! Of course... they got a Wii! Well, maybe I should say, WE ALL got a Wii! I think Ryan and I have enjoyed it just as much as the kids! My arms even hurt the next day, just because of the Wii- it is great!! Thanks mom for the awesome gift!

Garrett got a basketball hoop, some games, some clothes, and lots of other things! Claire got 4 Hannah Montana dolls:), a baby doll, some handmade doll clothes, some makeup and of course, her fave, clothes! Anna wasn't really sure what to think about Christmas. However, she had fun with her new table and chair set, her new dolly, and LOTS of stuffed animals!

We celebrated Christmas Eve with Ryan's parents, then Christmas morning at home. I told the kids that they could get up at 7am... well, at 4 am, Garrett and Claire came in the room saying they weren't tired anymore... The horrible mean mom that I am- sent them back to bed... until 6:52am

We did celebrate Christmas with my dad and Connie and her family on Saturday after Christmas. We had a great Christmas this year! I love how excited kids get during this time-even when they are climbing the walls, it brings me back to my memories as a child during Christmas! What great memories!
