Post Christmas, and a happy New Year

Post Christmas playtime. I told the girls that my favorite part of Christmas is the "melt-down" that invariably happens with Children and post Christmas blues. I even had my camera ready for the moment of tears and grumpy'ness, but the girls let me down this year... no tears, no fighting, nothing but smiles and happiness. Ah well, there is always next year. I can say that I really enjoyed getting some time off at the end of the year and spending it with the family, we all had a really good time playing, watching movies, eating, and hanging out around the house. For new years, we held a Pirates of the Carribbean marathon and almost missed the ball being dropped because we were so caught up in the last movie. Happy New Year everyone!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas Everyone! I hope you had as good a time as we did at our home. Christmas time is not about "the presents", it is a holiday to celebrate the Savior's Birthday. For Christmas eve we watched the Nativity movie and celebrated the true meaning of Christmas.... Now that I have that out of the way, look at all the presents we got! Isabelle has a new Cello, an American Girl Doll, a new Nintendo DS and various other toys and items. Aubree got a new American Girl Baby Bitty Doll and some doll furnature to go along with it. Heather got a heart rate monitor watch and some kickboxing gloves (you won't see that stuff on my list, ha!). I got Guitar Hero for the Wii and a new electric razor. Nala got several squeekie toys.
