We had a very nice Christmas this year. This is our tree after Santa came to visit. I just love sitting in the living room with only the tree lights on. There is something so relaxing about it. And, during this season we all need something a little relaxing!
We spent Christmas Eve with Jeremy, Rochelle, and their kids. We also had Rochelle's cousin, Tresa, with her boys, and a new friend, Marla that we met at church. Tresa's husband is deployed to Iraq this year, and Marla's daughter was with her dad for Christmas. A special treat was to have Jeremy's dad, Lane here too. He got to play everyone's grandpa for Christmas:)
I made the kids line up on the stairs for a picture before all the madness began...it's funny how they all have their "blankie's" in this picture. I think Maika's is hiding under the blanket that actually keeps her warm...you can see what's left of Logan's hiding behind her back. NOTE: I switched to the video camera at this point...
Here are the highlights of what everyone received.
Bronson: added to his collection of GeoTrax trains and Transformers.
Nalani: A vanity, dress-up make-up, a Barbie head that she can put make-up on and comb her hair, clothes.
Maika: A Nintendo DSi
Logan: An iTouch
Aundrea: two pair of boots, one pair black, one pair brown, both comfy!
Kelly: A Camelback for his bike rides, a gift certificate for 1 1/2 hour massage.
We are truly blessed to have such wonderful family and friends and hope everyone felt love during this season!
