Christmas Morning 2008-E woke bright and early to see if Santa had come! He started at 1:00 a.m. and woke up pretty much every hour after that. E has always been our early riser, which can be difficult at times, but in this case it was really fun to see his excitement. You are only a kid once!!
Favorite Things: Sephora....I love this place! Fly Guy went to Sephora and bought me a package of ten mascaras that were tested by Sephora and were picked as the top favorites. I have to admit I LOVE mascara. If I was deserted I would want my mascara. Fly Guy got lots of points for this one!!
E2 was thrilled to play with the ribbon and paper.
S's favorite things: little pets, doll house and dolls & first lip gloss
K's favorite things: legos, pokemon and cars
E's favorite things: legos, pokemon & games
Christmas morning we do a brunch with our family & friends. This year Fly Guy's brother came and our really good friends the Kerrs, Nielsons & Harrison. Later our cousins Mike, Tauschsa & family were also able to come & visit. This year we ate quiche, homemade muffins & scones...yummy! We all ate way too much and laughed a lot!!
Harrison our son/friend home for Christmas!

For Christmas Eve every year we are fortunate to join my Aunt & Uncle and their kids/grandkids for dinner and a Christmas program. I always feel like when we arrive at their home, Christmas has finally begun. My aunt has put together an amazing program outlining the nativity with scripture verses and songs that correlate. Participating in this tradition is a great experience that always fills me with the spirit and gratitude for the family that I am part of.

Merry Merry Christmas! Looks like a fun day and a great holiday. Legos will probably be everywhere, like our house. And the first lip gloss for Syd, so cute.
We were happy to have seen Doug but sad we missed you this trip. Maybe next time.
Love you all.
I was so excited that my kids did not wake up till 7:30 on christmas morning. I miss our Aunt and Uncle, and i think it is really a neat thing that you get to spend time with them,.My girls love the little pet shopp's too.
