We had a wonderful Christmas this year! We were so blessed by the wonderful time we had with family and friends. Santa also paid us a visit this year. This is what our house looked like on Christmas morning!
Liam was *quite* excited. He wasn't really sure that he actually could open the presents, since he's been trained to NOT touch them.
haha. But, he got into the swing of things and then the day after Christmas he came running out wanting to open presents again. That would make sense, wouldn't it? We were so lucky to have Nana and Papa sleep over on Christmas Eve and open gifts with us in the morning.
Santa brought Liam and awesome Little People house. According to Daddy, this is *not* to be confused with a doll house. ;)
Nana and Papa gave Liam an awesome new Easel, which he LOVES.
I made Nana some "Holly" bathroom towels.
Liam showing Nana his awesome Diego watch that he got from Sammy, his baby-sitter.
Liam helping Papa open his new TV from Santa! Papa's wearing the cool new
jammie pants that we got him.
Santa really did surprise us this year. Wes bought a raffle ticket from a lady at his work who was selling them for a local child who needs a heart transplant. Wes wanted to help, so he bought one, $5 raffle ticket. A few days later, we get a calling saying we won the raffle! The prize? A
Wii with
Wii play and an extra
Wii controller! Santa was very, very good to us. Of course, he didn't deliver it until Christmas Eve. What a wonderful
Chrismas surprise!
Here are a few great gifts that I got from Santa.
A
PURPLE IPod Nano inside.
Yay!
Papa was really good at helping Liam open his new toys and play with them.
Liam got a bounce back racer from mommy and daddy. He was so cute controlling it all over. :)
His new 'manly house.'
Stockings are always so fun!
Liam using his new toothbrush still inside the package! A singing Thomas toothbrush, cool huh?
Wes got some of his very own
stickles in his stocking.
Stickles are some very amazing glitter glue things for
scrapbooking that I'm slightly obsessed with. We made salt dough ornaments a few weeks ago(pictures of that later) and Wes came to understand my obsession. So my mom got him his own 'manly' black
stickles for his stocking.
The best gift of all(well, besides the Savior and a healthy, happy family)? A white Christmas!!! It was a beautiful Christmas morning full of joy and fun, but the snow really was the icing on the cake!
There are LOTS more photos of our Christmas festivities soon to come. My goal is to have all the stuff I'm behind on from December(finals trumped blogging) by the time we leave for Washington. We hope everyone had a lovely Christmas!
